Visual connections for C++ and PHP in VS Code
A VS Code extension inspired by The Programmer's Brain. Highlight variables, functions, and class instances, then follow their connections in a reading pane beside your source. Supports C++ codebases such as V8 and PHP projects, with connection lines routed around the text.
V8 instrumentation and JIT differential analysis
Glass Cage is a research harness for Chrome's V8 engine. It evaluates JavaScript under instrumentation, traces compilation across the Ignition, Sparkplug, Maglev, and TurboFan tiers, and diffs behavior between tiers to surface JIT miscompilations. It adds machine-code disassembly, invariant scanning, saved probes, and test-case minimization for triaging engine crashes. It pairs with the V8 training module.
