`IndexedDBAgent` does not exist in the namespace of the inspected page. It's a member of an instance of a page target in Web Inspector. One way to access it is via the Web Inspector inspecting the Web Inspector, in the Console, like this: `WI.assumingMainTarget().IndexedDBAgent.requestDatabase()`. The method takes two arguments and calls here: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/c739fc12db36a1c1119fe8ed69a27ceefe9bdde6/Source/WebCore/inspector/agents/InspectorIndexedDBAgent.cpp#L608
