the documentation here is very poor https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/devtools/docs/backend/protocol.md

I need to know the types of packets and the parameters so that I can send json packets to the server

I want to be able to navigate to pages and execute javascript through the protocol this is easy in chrome using chrome protocol as it has a good documentation and I can get the method I need and know its parameters , in the other side mozill protocol documentation explains only the syntax of the protocol and some few types but the rest is absent

No idea. I have never seen anything in one place. Follow the links off the pages you open.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

No this isn't what I wanted , I need some documentation about debugging protocol only . at this time I need only the types of packets to navigate to urls , handle alerts and prompts and execute javascript but any more info about the protocol will be fine

Go to the pages and look at the links on those pages. I do not have what you want. This is not a Developers Forum. It is Support for Firefox on the Desktop and Laptop.
