The inspector

Indium features an object inspector that can be open on any object reference from a REPL buffer (see The REPL), the debugger (see The stepping debugger), or the result of any evaluation of JavaScript code (see Interaction in JS buffers).

To inspect the result of the evaluation of an expression, press C-c M-i. An inspector buffer will pop up. You can also press RET or left click on object links from the REPL buffer.
