Public API

mount(options?): OptikInstance

Starts the kernel, installs instrumentation, and mounts the Shadow DOM panel. Mounting is transactional and rolls back registered resources on failure.

instance(): OptikInstance | null

Returns the active instance, or null before mounting and after destruction.

OptikInstance

Member	Purpose
kernel	OptikKernel with log, network, performance, storage, and system domains
show(tab?)	Open the panel and optionally select a built-in or plugin tab
hide()	Hide UI while collection continues
use(plugin)	Register a plugin and return the instance
eject(id)	Unregister a plugin and report whether it existed
destroy()	Stop collection, release resources, and restore the host environment

Built-in TabId values are console, network, element, storage, and system. Plugin tabs use plugin:<id>.

OptikKernel

const kernel = optik.kernel;

kernel.log.entries();
kernel.network.records();
kernel.performance.longTasks();
kernel.storage.snapshot('localStorage');
kernel.system.info();
kernel.evaluate('document.title');

Streaming domains use bounded buffers and expose events. Do not retain object handles after their owning domain entry has been evicted.

copyText(text, label?)

Runs the 3-stage copy fallback and returns a CopyOutcome describing synchronous, async, or manual completion.

HAR

createHar(records, options): HarArchive
serializeHar(records, options): string

Defaults are redactSensitive: true, includeBodies: false, and includeWebSocketFrames: false. See Privacy & Security.

Plugins

OptikPlugin defines id, label, render(), and optional onShow, onHide, onDispose, and badge hooks. PluginContext provides kernel, copy, reveal, log, and the reactive theme.

Protocol exports

ProtocolClient, ProtocolRouter, attachKernelProtocol, createInProcessTransportPair, KernelProtocolMethods, and protocol message types are exported from the package root. See Protocol & Transport.
