CDP API Reference

This page lists the Chrome DevTools Protocol methods supported by Lynx DevTool. Standard CDP methods link to the Chrome DevTools Protocol reference. Lynx extensions are documented from the Lynx source metadata.

Experimental reference

This generated reference is still being completed.

  • CDP events are not included yet.
  • Some Lynx extensions are listed but do not yet have detailed documentation.
  • Method descriptions are not automatically verified against the implementation and may be incomplete or inaccurate.

Verify behavior against the implementation and the linked upstream CDP reference before relying on it.

JavaScript Runtime Support

The runtime-domain methods in this reference are implemented by the PrimJS inspector. PrimJS is used for both Main-Thread Scripting (MTS) and Background-Thread Scripting (BTS).

V8-backed debugging is delegated to V8 Inspector. Refer to the V8 CDP reference for the V8 Inspector protocol version adopted by Lynx. V8 methods are not listed individually in this reference.
