It got me thinking. Maybe a way to do this is to have a 'bullet point' in the IDE inject something at the end of that line. When the parser reaches that thing f.ex
new Breakpoint()then timers stop and execution if in control of the serial port. Then the IDE could query values basically just have the Espruino evaluate as per usual through the serial, so if I want to know the value ofxthen I hover mouse over x and the Espruino evaluatesxand returns the result over serial and the IDE could then use that as a popover info box close to the cursor.Just had to get it out of my head, probably entirely wrong way to go about this.
