What Debug Owns

debug is for engine state, not user-facing UI summaries. It owns:

• channel toggles like sheets, portals, touch, and render
• snapshots and diffs
• recent event history
• on-demand inspectors for complex runtime structures

If you want to know what is on screen, use inspect. If you want to know what the engine thinks just happened, use debug.
