What steps will reproduce the bug?

• Run a script that involves debugging, breakpoints, or function scope evaluation
• Observe the crash with the fatal error

How often does it reproduce? Is there a required condition?

The issue reproduces consistently when running a script that involves debugging, particularly with breakpoints, function scope evaluation, or closures.

What is the expected behavior? Why is that the expected behavior?

The debugger should pause execution at the debugger; statement and allow the user to inspect variables within the function's scope without causing a crash or becoming unresponsive.

What do you see instead?

I encountered a fatal error while running Node.js v23.7.0, leading to a crash with the following message:

Fatal error in , line 0

Check failed: needs_context && current_scope_ == closure_scope_ && current_scope_->is_function_scope() && !function_.is_null() implies function_->context() != *context_.

Comienza reduciendo el escenario de debugger, breakpoint o closure informado a un script mínimo en Node.js v23.7.0; después, sigue el stack a través de v8::internal::ScopeIterator::start_position y v8_inspector::V8DebuggerAgentImpl::currentCallFrames. Se considera terminado cuando el script se pausa en debugger; y permite inspeccionar el ámbito de la función sin producir el error fatal ni dejar de responder; en el informe no se identifica ningún archivo de prueba.
