Additional information

Since this is working in Chrome 113, it appeared as a Chrome issue and was submitted on the Chrome bug tracker, but was closed with the following response:

This is a Node.js issue. I can reproduce this down to Node 14, but with Node 12 autocompletion works as expected.

The way autocompletion of object properties works is that we evaluate the input, but abort if this evaluation may cause a side effect. Without side effect, we get the object properties and offer these properties as autocomplete options.

From Node 14, side effect check fails. You can easily check this by running Node with node --trace-side-effect-free-evaluate --inspect.

I would suggest you file an issue on the Node issue tracker.

Reproduire avec Node v22.13.0 en utilisant node --inspect, Chrome 132 et global. dans la console DevTools dédiée. Comparer cela avec node --trace-side-effect-free-evaluate --inspect et suivre le chemin d’évaluation des effets de bord de l’autocomplétion de l’inspecteur ; la tâche est terminée lorsque les complétions de méthodes réapparaissent pour global..
