Description

Rerun and the spy can't see topics published over shared memory, so anything on that path is invisible for debugging. Shared memory topics need to be discoverable the same way normal topics are, otherwise moving a stream to shared memory means giving up all observability of it.

Research direction

Start by tracing how Rerun and the spy discover normal topics, then compare that path with topics published over shared memory. Done means shared-memory topics appear in both tools with the same discoverability as normal topics, preserving observability when a stream uses that transport.
