Walkthrough

The change adds Signal Store observation, entity and duration reporting, event history, agent tools, and inspector views. It updates the travel example to use booking entities and events. Documentation and extension bundle references also change.

Changes

NgRx live inspection

Layer / File(s) Summary
Register Signal Store observation
packages/ng-devtools/src/ngrx-register.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/ngrx-overlay.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/ngrx-shared.ts, app/src/pages/store-types.ts, src/main.ts, apps/docs/src/content/guides/ngrx-signals-restore.md
Registration and report types now support watchState alongside patchState. The overlay attempts to import and register both functions. The guide describes explicit and automatic registration.
Record changes, durations, and events
packages/ng-devtools/src/ngrx-collector.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/__tests__/ngrx-collector.test.ts
The collector uses watchState when available, records synchronous method durations and entity summaries, and logs dispatched events with eligible synchronous change correlations. Tests cover logging, entity metadata, and discovery.
Identify signal methods
packages/ng-devtools/src/rpc/get-ngrx-store.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/rpc/ngrx-tools.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/__tests__/ngrx-collector.test.ts
Source scanning records signalMethod names separately from rxMethod names. Store naming applies the discovered labels to matching live methods.
Expose live inspection and history tools
packages/ng-devtools/src/rpc/ngrx-live-tools.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/devframe.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/config.ts, packages/ng-devtools/src/rpc/__tests__/ngrx-live-tools.test.ts, apps/docs/src/content/agents/*, apps/docs/src/content/inspectors/ngrx-store.md, extension/ui/index.html, extension/ui/assets/browser-agent-rpc-*.js
Two read-only tools return formatted store details or filtered history. Agent documentation describes the tools. The extension bundle references use the updated asset name.
Display entities, durations, and events
app/src/pages/store-inspector.ts, app/src/pages/store-types.ts, apps/docs/src/content/inspectors/ngrx-store.md
The inspector displays entity summaries, method and entry durations, page-level events, and shared change and event details. Documentation describes the displayed information and its limits.

Travel booking store example

Layer / File(s) Summary
Model bookings with entities and events
src/app/travel/travel.store.ts
The store defines booking events and stores bookings in an entity collection. It adds recent-search and last-viewed-selection tracking.
Dispatch booking events
src/app/pages/booking.ts, src/app/pages/trips.ts, src/app/pages/destinations.ts
The booking and trips pages dispatch creation and cancellation events. Destinations records query values with trackSearch.

Documentation and interface updates

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document NgRx reporting and tools
apps/docs/src/content/inspectors/ngrx-store.md, apps/docs/src/content/agents/tools.md, apps/docs/src/content/agents/resources.md, apps/docs/src/content/guides/ngrx-signals-restore.md
The documentation describes NgRx entity metadata, event reporting, history tools, and watchState registration. The NgRx resource description changes to refer to live state.
Update button width utility
apps/docs/src/app/components/llm-actions.ts
The button’s minimum-width class changes to min-w-30.
Update extension bundle references
extension/ui/index.html, extension/ui/assets/browser-agent-rpc-*.js
The extension entry page and browser-agent bridge reference the updated JavaScript asset name.

Suggested labels: enhancement

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2b86a

The new store inspection and history features are mergeable with small follow-ups. When polling history across several tabs, entries can be hidden. Keyboard focus in the Events panel can move inconsistently. The reported average method timings can read slightly low.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2b86a

Entity summaries can expose values that application-field masking was intended to hide. Access remains limited to connected development sessions with NgRx inspection enabled, and the new tools do not grant write authority.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: New entity metadata does not consistently inherit source-field redaction. IDs and selected IDs use serialize instead of serializeSlice with their source keys; selected entities use selectedIdKey rather than the entity-map key. Consequently, masking collection fields or selection identifiers can leave their derived representations readable in reports and agent output. The base collector had only the source-key-masked state and computed representations.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The redaction gap affects reported entity collections whose source fields are masked but whose derived metadata is not. Exposure is within connected-page inspection and authorized agent readership; the evidence does not establish production tenant access, infrastructure privileges or credential execution authority.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A reader can obtain a selected identifier masked in state because the new selectedId alias serializes its raw value without checking selectedIdKey. A selected record can similarly escape collection-level masking when its selection key is not masked. Nested secret-key masking and string-pattern redaction still apply, but do not preserve arbitrary source-field masking.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The new tools are read-only and pass through NgRx agent authorization. Their output is labeled untrusted and capped at 15,000 body characters. These controls limit authority and output volume but do not repair disclosure through an incorrectly masked alias. Connected-page state and history were already available through the base agent resource.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Watcher attachment records cleanup only after setup returns successfully. A test documents partial registration followed by failure with a stub injector, which can leak observation. Whether production injectors can encounter that shape remains unresolved, so it is not retained as a separate security finding.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Derive entity metadata from policy-filtered values, or explicitly inherit masking from each source field and collection. Keep aliases from revealing values hidden in state or computed output.
  • proposed — Classify both new live tools in the page-only registry to prevent exposure-policy drift. They are currently absent from that registry; the documented stdio host cannot receive pages, so this omission alone does not establish disclosure there.

Thanks for this, the entities summary and the events wiring are a nice start. Before it goes in, can you go through the NgRx Signals docs (watchState, the events plugin, signalMethod) and line it up with what #34 asks? A few things I hit:

  1. The Dispatcher lookup stops after 5 misses, and Dispatcher only exists once something injects it. Open the demo on /, go to /booking, and no events get logged. Keep looking until it's found and add a test.
  2. If a withReducer case sets a value it already has, finish() returns before clearing pendingEventByTracked, so the next change (even a plain method call) gets tagged with that old event. Clear it before the early return and in untrack, and use a WeakMap.
  3. devframe sends positional args as arg0/arg1/arg2, so agents can't pass storeId/since by name. Register both tools with agent.registerTool and a named inputSchema (page, storeId, since) like the router and forms tools.
  4. Please keep the ng-devtools:ngrx-store resource, the issue doesn't ask to remove it.
  5. State changes should come from watchState like #34 says, so every change in the same tick is its own entry. Right now they're merged.
  6. Clicking an event shows its detail inside the store's change log, somewhere else on the page, and focus doesn't follow. Give events their own selection with the detail right under the list.
  7. Smaller: cap the tool output and add the untrusted-data line like the forms and router tools, don't set payload on events without one (shows {"@type":"undefined"}), label signalMethod correctly, and mention scoped dispatchers and sync-only tagging under Limits.

I'll take another look after that.

Review comments at @app/src/pages/store-inspector.ts:
- Line 397: Render the change-log detail through the shared entryDetailTpl
instead of its inline detail, passing a distinct idPrefix for its heading so it
remains unique when both panels render. Move the change-log-specific escape
handler, focus targets, dispatch-again button, and unrestorable hints into
entryDetailTpl’s context-driven rendering, while preserving the Events section’s
existing behavior.

Review comments at @apps/docs/src/content/agents/resources.md:
- Around line 90-92: Update the resource documentation to match the existing
registration: keep the `ngrx-store` entry in the resource table, change the
resource count from five to six, and remove `ng-devtools:ngrx-store` from the
list of keys with no resource of their own. Preserve the existing `###
ngrx-store` section and the link from `tools.md`.

Review comments at @apps/docs/src/content/agents/tools.md:
- Line 160: Rename the documented argument from pageId to page in the tool input
tables in the docs, including the matching entry near the other tool’s
documentation. Keep the existing optional status and description unchanged.

Review comments at @apps/docs/src/content/inspectors/ngrx-store.md:
- Line 43: Update the sentence describing method tags in the State, Computed and
Methods section to mention both signalMethod and rxMethod members, keeping the
existing call-count and duration details.
- Around line 3-15: Resolve the merge conflict in the NgRx Store page by
removing every conflict marker and consolidating the front matter to one
description that mentions entities, events, restore, and dispatch; retain the
origin badge table and Dispatch again in the change log, add the duration and
Caused by event text, and keep both the Events and Dispatch an action sections.

Review comments at @packages/ng-devtools/src/__tests__/ngrx-collector.test.ts:
- Line 1776: Update the test title and comment to reflect that Store lookup
stops after five misses while Dispatcher lookup continues on each pass; in the
test’s `lookups` assertion, require exactly 13 view-injector lookups to verify
five Store scans plus eight Dispatcher scans.

Review comments at @packages/ng-devtools/src/ngrx-collector.ts:
- Around line 633-652: Update wrapDispatch to expose the current event only
while original.apply runs, restoring any previous value afterward, and have
appendChange use that in-flight event before falling back to
pendingEventByInstance. Add a test using realCollectorWithInjector with a real
withReducer store and registered watchState to verify event correlation.

Move event-detail focus into afterRenderEffect.

This effect reads eventDetailHeading() when selectedEventSeq changes. Angular renders the #eventDetailHeading element only after change detection. When a user first selects an event, the effect can run before that element exists. The effect then re-runs when the view query resolves. The result is still a non-deterministic focus move. The existing latestButton focus logic uses afterRenderEffect for the same purpose. Use afterRenderEffect here too, and focus only on a seq transition.

Moving focus on every selection also takes the user away from the list button that they clicked. This makes keyboard navigation through events harder.

Proposed fix
-    effect(() => {
-      if (this.selectedEventSeq() === null) return;
-      const heading = this.eventDetailHeading()?.nativeElement;
-      heading?.focus();
-    });
+    afterRenderEffect(() => {
+      if (this.selectedEventSeq() === null) return;
+      this.eventDetailHeading()?.nativeElement.focus();
+    });

Review comment at @app/src/pages/store-inspector.ts around lines 1816 - 1820:
Replace the event-detail heading focus `effect` with `afterRenderEffect` so it
runs after the `eventDetailHeading` view query is available. Focus the heading
only when `selectedEventSeq` transitions from null to a sequence; do not move
focus on subsequent event selections, preserving keyboard navigation from the
list.

Compute avgDurationMs from measured calls only.

info.calls is incremented at Line 448, before Reflect.apply. totalDurationMs is updated in the finally block. A report can run while a method call is still on the stack, for example when the method calls a re-entrant path or throws during a nested collect. In that case, the in-flight call counts in calls but adds nothing to totalDurationMs. The average is then too low. Store a separate timedCalls counter and increment it with totalDurationMs. Then divide by that counter.

Proposed fix
-          ...(info.calls > 0
-            ? { avgDurationMs: Math.round(info.totalDurationMs / info.calls) }
+          ...(info.timedCalls > 0
+            ? { avgDurationMs: Math.round(info.totalDurationMs / info.timedCalls) }
             : {}),

Also add timedCalls: number to MethodInfo, initialize it to 0, and add info.timedCalls++ next to info.totalDurationMs += durationMs.

- 1090:
Update MethodInfo and its initialization to track a separate timedCalls counter,
increment it alongside totalDurationMs when a call’s duration is recorded, and
use timedCalls instead of calls when computing avgDurationMs. Keep calls for its
existing purpose.

Filter since per page, not across every page.

Each page has its own seq counter. mergeNgrxReport assigns seq from that page's log, and a new session restarts the counter. Without page, signalStoreHistoryText applies one since value to every page. Suppose an agent polls with the last seq from page A (for example 120) while page B is at 15. All of page B's new entries are then hidden. The rows also interleave by seq across pages, so the "oldest first" order is wrong across pages. Two fixes are possible:

  • Require page whenever since is set and more than one page reports.
  • Sort multi-page rows by timestamp and document that since applies per page.
Proposed fix
   const multiplePages = matching.length > 1;
+  if (multiplePages && typeof since === 'number') {
+    return `\`since\` is a per-page sequence number. Pass \`page\` (one of ${matching.map((p) => code(p.pageId)).join(', ')}) together with \`since\`.`;
+  }

187 - 197:
Update the filtering and ordering in signalStoreHistoryText: when since is
supplied for multiple matching pages, require page to identify a single page and
return a clear error otherwise. Preserve per-page sequence filtering and avoid
merging rows by seq across pages.

Thanks for the update, this is a lot closer. Everything from the last round is in, and the CodeRabbit ones too. What's left:

  1. With { patchState, watchState } registered (like the demo), a restore logs twice: a patchState entry from the watcher and then Restore #N with the same diff. Have the restore label the watcher entry (push a Restore #N frame on methodStack and skip finish when the store is watched), and add a test with both registered.
  2. Add inspect-signal-store and signal-store-history to PAGE_AGENT_ENTRIES in config.ts, otherwise they show up over stdio, which has no page.
  3. signal-store-history is oldest first and then cut at 15k, so on a full log the agent loses the newest entries. Keep the newest rows that fit and say how many older ones were dropped (and to use storeId/since). While you're there, apply since per page, or require page when more than one page reports, since each page has its own seq.
  4. Please drop the @ngrx/signals auto-import in ngrx-overlay.ts. A bare specifier with @vite-ignore doesn't resolve in the browser, and if it did it'd be a second copy of the library. Remove the sentences about it in the guide and in ngrx-register.ts too.
  5. Event detail focus: use afterRenderEffect and only move focus when the selected event changes. Right now typing in the filter can pull focus into the detail.
  6. Docs: remove the em dashes and "will" (ngrx-store.md Limits, the guide, the tool descriptions), withEffects should be withEventHandlers, use ../inspectors/ngrx-store.md instead of /inspectors/ngrx-store in tools.md, and update "How changes are recorded" plus the registerNgrxSignals({ patchState }) line (and the restore message) for watchState.
  7. A couple of panel tests for the Events section (its own selection and focus) and the entities and duration rows.

I'll take another look after that.
