Package Exports
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (ariana) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
Ariana is an IDE extension to understand what happens during runtime. You don't have to put print(), console.log() or breakpoints. Currently supports JS/TS & Python.
β¨ Key Features
Use Ariana VSCode extension to :
- π΅οΈ Hover over any expression to see its last recorded values
- β±οΈ See how long it took for any expression in your code to run.
- π§΅ Provide runtime history to coding agent for context-aware debugging (WIP)
πΎ How to install
1) Install the extension on your IDE
Install the extension on the VSCode Marketplace, or by searching for Ariana in the extensions tab in VSCode or Cursor.
2) Install the ariana CLI

| Codebase Type | Command |
|---|---|
| JS/TS | ariana npm run dev |
| Python | ariana python myscript.py --some-options-maybe |
2) πΎ View runtime insights directly in your code.
Open a code file, press ctrl + shift + p and search for the Ariana: Toggle Traced Expressions Highlighting command.
πΊοΈ Identify which sections of your code ran
Highlight Color Meaning π’ Green Code segment ran successfully. π΄ Red Code crashed here. βͺ None Code segment didnβt run or couldn't be recorded. π΅οΈ Hover over any expression to reveal its past values

3) π€ Use AI to recap what your code did & identify error root causes (WIP)
Run:
ariana --recapIt will tell you what might have gone wrong with your code.
Coming soon: A coding agent that answers questions and directly impacts your codebase
