5 // Developer tools consist of the following parts:
7 // DevToolsAgent lives in the renderer of an inspected page and provides access
8 // to the pages resources, DOM, v8 etc. by means of IPC messages.
10 // DevToolsClient is a thin delegate that lives in the tools front-end
11 // renderer and converts IPC messages to frontend method calls and allows the
12 // frontend to send messages to the DevToolsAgent.
14 // All the messages are routed through browser process. There is a
15 // DevToolsManager living in the browser process that is responsible for
16 // routing logistics. It is also capable of sending direct messages to the
17 // agent rather than forwarding messages between agents and clients only.
