dcc is custom software written by Andrew Taylor used in several CSE courses including COMP1511, COMP1521 & COMP1911.
dcc has a [github repo]
It is manually added to CSE systems as [/usr/local/extrafiles/bin/dcc]
dcc compiles C programs with clang & gcc adding extra explanation to error messages suitable for novice programmers.
dcc injects python3 into the binary which catches run-time errors and invokes gdb to print useful information including a stack backtrace and nearby variable values, all in a form comprehensible to novice programmers.
dcc runs valgrind simultaneously as a separate synchronized process checking for uninitialized variables.
dcc's only dependencies are python3, clang, GCC & valgrind
