Bug 1062849 tracks implementing AudioWorklet. This is the dev tools bug requested https://wiki.mozilla.org/ExposureGuidelines#Intent_to_implement This is a general node and so may not require any additional support beyond what is already provided for other AudioNodes. WRT Chrome, I don't see any mention of worklet at https://github.com/google/audion/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=worklet&type= What is different for this node, however, is that this node triggers running of a script on an AudioWorklet thread. Developers may benefit if existing script debugging tools are available for AudioWorkletGlobalScope.
If I'm understanding this correctly, this is a request for the debugger tool to be able to debug scripts that run inside an audio worklet. So I'm moving this to the debugger. The WebAudio tool probably doesn't need any changes. Also, pinging Ryan who is working at the moment on multi-target debugging. This would be one more potential target to know how to connect to.
