debugtools / architecture

Architecture notes

debugtools is structured as a set of focused browser modules wrapped in an open-source project shell. The default boundary is local execution; network and cloud behavior is called out when a tool needs it.

Browser tools

Local-first utilities for formatting, decoding, editing, diffing, and inspection.

API workbench

Network-capable API testing with explicit browser CORS constraints, private mode, and optional Cloud Sync.

Persistence

LocalStorage for local workspaces and authenticated API routes for synced collections.

Project shell

Navigation, roadmap, releases, answers, and docs surfaces that make the project inspectable.

Next architecture work

The next milestone is separating shared tool primitives, request persistence, and module metadata so each tool can be tested and documented independently.
