Research direction

The issue does not identify a source file, test, entry point, or acceptance criteria. First clarify the intended programmatic API, supported runtime and heap-dump format with the maintainers; completion should include an agreed implementation location and tests demonstrating that a heap dump can be triggered.

Thanks,
