Description
Summary
Non-standard RPC methods such as debug_ and trace_ namespaces are not currently supported.
Problem
These endpoints are useful for debugging, tracing, and advanced node interactions but vary significantly between clients (Geth, Reth, Erigon, Nethermind, etc.).
Proposed Solution
- Research which non-standard namespaces exist across major clients
- Document client-specific differences
- Decide on a strategy: support common subset, or client-specific feature flags
- Implement chosen endpoints with appropriate documentation noting client compatibility
- Add tests (may require client-specific test environments)
Open Questions
- Which clients do we prioritize?
- How do we handle methods that exist on some clients but not others?
- Should these be behind feature flags to avoid bloating the core crate?

Research direction
Start by researching the debug_ and trace_ namespaces across Geth, Reth, Erigon, and Nethermind, then document the client-specific differences and evaluate the proposed support strategies. Done means a chosen approach is implemented, client compatibility is documented, and appropriate tests cover the supported endpoints.
