New `egui_inspection` crate ships: - `protocol` (default): wire types + length-prefixed msgpack framing for the inspector ↔ egui-peer connection. Transport-neutral (stdio / unix socket / TCP). - `plugin`: `InspectionPlugin`, an `egui::Plugin` that dials a unix socket from `EGUI_INSPECTION_SOCKET`, streams frames + accesskit tree updates, and applies inbound `InspectorCommand`s back into the running `egui::Context`. eframe gains an `inspection` feature that auto-attaches the plugin during native startup (glow + wgpu integrations) when the env var is set. Connection failures log via `log::warn!` and do not abort startup. Lives in its own crate (rather than `egui_kittest`) so eframe can pull the protocol in without picking up the test harness, and so external tools can depend on it directly.

# egui_inspection
|
|
|
|
Wire protocol and `egui::Plugin` for live inspection of running egui apps and
|
|
kittest harnesses.
|
|
|
|
Two layers:
|
|
|
|
- **`protocol`** (default feature): length-prefixed MessagePack messages used by
|
|
`egui_kittest`'s inspector, the external `kittest_inspector` UI, and the
|
|
`egui_kittest_mcp` server.
|
|
|
|
- **`plugin`** (opt-in): an `egui::Plugin` implementation that streams frames +
|
|
AccessKit tree updates to an inspector over a unix domain socket and applies
|
|
received `InspectorCommand`s back into the running app. Auto-attaches when
|
|
`EGUI_INSPECTION_SOCKET` is set.
