Pull request overview
Adds streaming-based utilities and updated guidance for analyzing very large (>2 GiB) V8 heap snapshots in the heap-snapshot-analysis skill, avoiding full-file buffering approaches that can exceed Node’s Buffer limits.
Changes:
- Introduces
streamSnapshot.mjswith byte-scanning and numeric-array streaming helpers for heap snapshot sections. - Updates
SKILL.mdwith guidance and example workflow for >2 GiB snapshots, including offset scanning and streaming tuple parsing. - Expands investigation guidance with an additional “false retainer” category related to DevTools debugger handles.
