+description: Use the Crabbox wrapper for OpenClaw remote validation across Linux, macOS, Windows, and WSL2, including delegated Blacksmith Testbox proof. Report the actual provider and id.
+---
+
+# Crabbox
+
+Use the Crabbox wrapper when OpenClaw needs remote Linux proof for broad tests,
+CI-parity checks, secrets, hosted services, Docker/E2E/package lanes, warmed
+reusable boxes, sync timing, logs/results, cache inspection, or lease cleanup.
+
+Crabbox is the transport/orchestration surface. The actual backend can be:
+
+- brokered AWS Crabbox: direct provider, `provider=aws`, lease ids like
+  `cbx_...`, `syncDelegated=false`
+- Blacksmith Testbox through Crabbox: delegated provider,
+  `provider=blacksmith-testbox`, ids like `tbx_...`, `syncDelegated=true`
+
+For OpenClaw maintainer broad `pnpm` gates, Blacksmith Testbox through the
+Crabbox wrapper is acceptable and often preferred when the standing Testbox
+rules apply. Do not describe those runs as "AWS Crabbox"; report them as
+Testbox-through-Crabbox with the `tbx_...` id and Actions run.
+
+Use the repo `.crabbox.yaml` brokered AWS path when the task specifically needs
+direct AWS Crabbox behavior, persistent direct-provider leases, `--fresh-pr`,
+`--full-resync`, environment forwarding, capture/download support, or provider
+comparison. Use `--provider blacksmith-testbox` when the task needs OpenClaw
+maintainer Testbox proof, prepared CI environment, broad/heavy pnpm gates, or
+the user asks for Testbox/Blacksmith.
+
+## First Checks
+
+- Run from the repo root. Crabbox sync mirrors the current checkout.
+- Check the wrapper and providers before remote work:
+
+```sh
+command -v crabbox
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox --version
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --help | sed -n '1,120p'
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop launch --help
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc --help
+```
+
+- OpenClaw scripts prefer `../crabbox/bin/crabbox` when present. The user PATH
+  shim can be stale.
+- Check `.crabbox.yaml` for direct-provider defaults. Omitting `--provider`
+  means brokered AWS today.
+- The brokered AWS default is a Linux developer image in `eu-west-1`; the repo
+  config pins hot `eu-west-1a/b/c` placement so Fast Snapshot Restore can apply.
+  If warmup drifts well past the minute-scale path, verify image promotion,
+  region/AZ placement, and FSR state before blaming OpenClaw.
+- For broad OpenClaw maintainer `pnpm` gates, prefer the repo wrapper with
+  `--provider blacksmith-testbox` or the repo Testbox helpers when the standing
+  Testbox policy applies.
+- Always report the actual provider and id. `cbx_...` means AWS Crabbox;
+  `tbx_...` means Blacksmith Testbox through Crabbox. If the output only says
+  `blacksmith testbox list`, use `blacksmith testbox list --all` before
+  concluding no box exists.
+- If a warm direct-provider lease smells stale, retry with `--full-resync`
+  (alias `--fresh-sync`) before replacing the lease. This resets the remote
+  workdir, skips the fingerprint fast path, reseeds Git when possible, and
+  uploads the checkout from scratch.
+- For live/provider bugs, use the configured secret workflow before downgrading
+  to mocks. Copy only the exact needed key into the remote process environment
+  for that one command. Do not print it, do not sync it as a repo file, and do
+  not leave it in remote shell history or logs. If no secret-safe injection path
+  is available, say true live provider auth is blocked instead of silently using
+  a fake key.
+- Prefer local targeted tests for tight edit loops. Broad gates belong remote.
+- Do not treat inherited shell env as operator intent. In particular,
+  `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled` from the local shell is not permission
+  to move broad `pnpm check:changed`, `pnpm test:changed`, full `pnpm test`, or
+  lint/typecheck fan-out onto the laptop.
+- Only use `OPENCLAW_LOCAL_CHECK_MODE=throttled|full` when the user explicitly
+  asks for local proof in the current task. If Testbox is queued or capacity is
+  constrained, report the blocker and keep only targeted local edit-loop checks
+  running.
+
+## macOS And Windows Targets
+
+Use these only when the task needs an existing non-Linux host. OpenClaw broad
+Linux validation uses the repo Crabbox config unless a provider is explicitly
+requested.
+
+Native brokered Windows is available for Windows-specific proof. Use the AWS
+developer image in `us-west-2` on demand; it has the expected OpenClaw developer
+toolchain and Docker image cache. Keep broad Linux gates on Linux/Testbox unless
+the bug is Windows-specific:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox warmup \
+  --provider aws \
+  --target windows \
+  --windows-mode normal \
+  --region us-west-2 \
+  --market on-demand \
+  --timing-json
+```
+
+The hydrate workflow assumes Docker should already be baked into Linux images
+and only installs it as a fallback. Do not add per-run Docker installs to proof
+commands unless the image probe shows Docker is actually missing.
+
+When the user explicitly asks for brokered macOS runners, use Crabbox AWS
+macOS only after confirming the deployed coordinator supports EC2 Mac host
+lifecycle/image routes and the operator has AWS EC2 Mac Dedicated Host quota
+and IAM. Prefer `CRABBOX_HOST_ID` for a known Crabbox-managed Dedicated Host,
+or run the no-spend preflight first:
+
+```sh
+crabbox admin hosts quota --provider aws --target macos --region eu-west-1 --type mac2.metal --json
+crabbox admin hosts allocate --provider aws --target macos --region eu-west-1 --type mac2.metal --dry-run --json
+CRABBOX_MACOS_TYPES=all scripts/macos-host-region-preflight.sh
+```
+
+Do not silently substitute AWS macOS for normal OpenClaw Linux proof. Report
+paid-host blockers as quota, IAM, coordinator deployment, or host availability
+instead of falling back to local macOS.
+
+Crabbox supports static SSH targets:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --provider ssh --target macos --static-host mac-studio.local -- xcodebuild test
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --provider ssh --target windows --windows-mode normal --static-host win-dev.local -- pwsh -NoProfile -Command "dotnet test"
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --provider ssh --target windows --windows-mode wsl2 --static-host win-dev.local -- pnpm test
+```
+
+- `target=macos` and `target=windows --windows-mode wsl2` use the POSIX SSH,
+  bash, Git, rsync, and tar contract.
+- Native Windows uses OpenSSH, PowerShell, Git, and tar; sync is manifest tar
+  archive transfer into `static.workRoot`. Direct native Windows runs support
+  `--script*`, `--env-from-profile`, `--preflight`, and PowerShell `--shell`.
+- `crabbox actions hydrate/register` are Linux-only today; use plain
+  `crabbox run` loops for static macOS and Windows hosts.
+- Live proof needs a reachable, operator-managed SSH host. Without one, verify
+  with `../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --help`, config/flag tests, and the Crabbox
+  Go test suite.
+
+## Direct Brokered AWS Backend
+
+Use this when the task needs direct AWS Crabbox semantics rather than the
+prepared Blacksmith Testbox CI environment.
+
+Changed gate:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  --shell -- \
+  "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test:changed"
+```
+
+Full suite:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  --shell -- \
+  "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test"
+```
+
+Focused rerun:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  --shell -- \
+  "env CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test <path-or-filter>"
+```
+
+Read the JSON summary. Useful fields:
+
+- `provider`: `aws`
+- `leaseId`: `cbx_...`
+- `syncDelegated`: `false`
+- `commandPhases`: populated when the command prints `CRABBOX_PHASE:<name>`
+- `commandMs` / `totalMs`
+- `exitCode`
+
+Crabbox should stop one-shot AWS leases automatically after the run. Verify
+cleanup when a run fails, is interrupted, or the command output is unclear:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox list --provider aws
+```
+
+## Blacksmith Testbox Through Crabbox
+
+Use this for OpenClaw maintainer broad/heavy `pnpm` gates when the prepared CI
+environment is the right proof surface:
+
+```sh
+node scripts/crabbox-wrapper.mjs run \
+  --provider blacksmith-testbox \
+  --blacksmith-org openclaw \
+  --blacksmith-workflow .github/workflows/ci-check-testbox.yml \
+  --blacksmith-job check \
+  --blacksmith-ref main \
+  --idle-timeout 90m \
+  --ttl 240m \
+  --timing-json \
+  -- \
+  CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 OPENCLAW_TESTBOX=1 OPENCLAW_TESTBOX_REMOTE_RUN=1 pnpm check:changed
+```
+
+Read the JSON summary and the Testbox line. Useful fields:
+
+- `provider`: `blacksmith-testbox`
+- `leaseId`: `tbx_...`
+- `syncDelegated`: `true`
+- `syncPhases`: delegated/skipped because Blacksmith owns checkout/sync
+- Actions run URL/id from the Testbox output
+- `exitCode`
+
+`blacksmith testbox list` may hide hydrating or ready boxes. Use:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith testbox list --all
+blacksmith testbox status <tbx_id>
+```
+
+## Observability Flags
+
+Use these on debugging runs before inventing ad hoc logging:
+
+- `--preflight`: prints run context, workspace mode, SSH target, remote user/cwd,
+  and target-specific tool probes. Defaults cover `git`, `tar`, `node`, `npm`,
+  `corepack`, `pnpm`, `yarn`, `bun`, `docker`, plus POSIX
+  `sudo`/`apt`/`bubblewrap` and native Windows
+  `powershell`/`execution_policy`/`longpaths`/`temp`/`pwsh`. Add
+  `--preflight-tools node,bun,docker`, `CRABBOX_PREFLIGHT_TOOLS`, or repo
+  `run.preflightTools` to replace the list. `default` expands built-ins; `none`
+  prints only the workspace summary. Preflight is diagnostic only; install
+  toolchains through Actions hydration, images, devcontainer/Nix/mise/asdf, or
+  the run script. On `blacksmith-testbox`, this prints a delegated-unsupported
+  note because the workflow owns setup.
+- `CRABBOX_ENV_ALLOW=NAME,...`: forwards only listed local env vars for direct
+  providers and prints `set len=N secret=true` style summaries. On
+  `blacksmith-testbox`, env forwarding is unsupported; put secrets in the
+  Testbox workflow instead.
+- `--env-from-profile <file>` plus `--allow-env NAME`: loads simple
+  `export NAME=value` / `NAME=value` lines from a local profile without
+  executing it, then forwards only allowlisted names. `--allow-env` is
+  repeatable and comma-separated. Profile values override ambient allowlisted
+  env values for that run. Direct POSIX, WSL2, and native Windows runs are
+  supported; delegated providers are not. Crabbox probes the uploaded profile
+  remotely and prints redacted presence/length metadata before the command.
+- `--env-helper <name>`: with `--env-from-profile` on POSIX SSH targets,
+  persists `.crabbox/env/<name>` and `.crabbox/env/<name>.env` so follow-up
+  commands on the same lease can run through `./.crabbox/env/<name> <command>`.
+  Use only on leases you control; the profile stays until cleanup, lease reset,
+  or `--full-resync`.
+- `--script <file>` / `--script-stdin`: upload a local script into
+  `.crabbox/scripts/` and execute it on the remote box. Shebang scripts execute
+  directly on POSIX; scripts without a shebang run through `bash`. Native
+  Windows uploads run through Windows PowerShell, and Crabbox appends `.ps1`
+  when needed. Arguments after `--` become script args.
+- `--fresh-pr owner/repo#123|URL|number`: skip dirty local sync and create a
+  fresh remote checkout of the GitHub PR. Bare numbers use the current repo's
+  GitHub origin. Add `--apply-local-patch` only when the current local
+  `git diff --binary HEAD` should be applied on top of that PR checkout.
+- `--full-resync` / `--fresh-sync`: reset a stale direct-provider workdir
+  before syncing. Use after sync fingerprints look wrong, SSH times out before
+  sync, or rsync watchdog output suggests it. It is redundant with
+  `--fresh-pr`, incompatible with `--no-sync`, and unsupported by delegated
+  providers.
+- `--capture-stdout <path>` / `--capture-stderr <path>`: write remote streams to
+  local files and keep binary/noisy output out of retained logs. Parent
+  directories must already exist. These are direct-provider only.
+- `--capture-on-fail`: on non-zero direct-provider exits, downloads
+  `.crabbox/captures/*.tar.gz` with `test-results`, `playwright-report`,
+  `coverage`, JUnit XML, and nearby logs. Treat as secret-bearing until reviewed.
+- `--keep-on-failure`: leave a failed one-shot lease alive for live debugging
+  until idle/TTL expiry. Useful on direct providers and delegated one-shots.
+- `--timing-json`: final machine-readable timing. Add
+  `echo CRABBOX_PHASE:install`, `CRABBOX_PHASE:test`, etc. in long shell
+  commands; direct providers and Blacksmith Testbox both report them as
+  `commandPhases`.
+
+Live-provider debug template for direct AWS/Hetzner leases:
+
+```sh
+mkdir -p .crabbox/logs
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider aws \
+  --preflight \
+  --allow-env OPENAI_API_KEY,OPENAI_BASE_URL \
+  --timing-json \
+  --capture-stdout .crabbox/logs/live-provider.stdout.log \
+  --capture-stderr .crabbox/logs/live-provider.stderr.log \
+  --capture-on-fail \
+  --shell -- \
+  "echo CRABBOX_PHASE:install; pnpm install --frozen-lockfile; echo CRABBOX_PHASE:test; pnpm test:live"
+```
+
+Do not pass `--capture-*`, `--download`, `--checksum`, `--force-sync-large`, or
+`--sync-only` to delegated providers. Also do not pass `--script*`,
+`--fresh-pr`, `--full-resync`, or `--env-helper` there. Crabbox rejects these
+because the provider owns sync or command transport. `--keep-on-failure` is OK
+for delegated one-shots when you need to inspect a failed lease.
+
+## Efficient Bug E2E Verification
+
+Use the smallest Crabbox lane that proves the reported user path, not just the
+touched code. Aim for one after-fix E2E proof before commenting, closing, or
+opening a PR for a user-visible bug.
+
+When the user says "test in Crabbox", do not simply copy tests to the remote
+box and run them there. Crabbox is for remote real-scenario proof: copy or
+install OpenClaw as the user would, run the same setup/update/CLI/Gateway/API
+call that failed, and capture behavior from that entrypoint. For regressions or
+bug reports, prove the broken state first when feasible, then run the same
+scenario after the fix.
+
+Pick the lane by symptom:
+
+- Docker/setup/install bug: build a package tarball and run the matching
+  `scripts/e2e/*-docker.sh` or package script. This proves npm packaging,
+  install paths, runtime deps, config writes, and container behavior.
+- Provider/model/auth bug: prefer true live E2E. Use the configured secret
+  workflow, then inject the single needed key into Crabbox if needed. Scrub
+  unrelated provider env vars in the child command so interactive defaults do
+  not drift to another provider. If only a dummy key is used, label the proof
+  narrowly, e.g. "UI/install path only; live provider auth not exercised."
+- Channel delivery bug: use the channel Docker/live lane when available; include
+  setup, config, gateway start, send/receive or agent-turn proof, and redacted
+  logs.
+- Gateway/session/tool bug: prefer an end-to-end CLI or Gateway RPC command that
+  creates real state and inspects the resulting files/API output.
+- Pure parser/config bug: targeted tests may be enough, but still run a
+  Crabbox command when OS, package, Docker, secrets, or service lifecycle could
+  change behavior.
+
+Efficient flow:
+
+1. Reproduce or prove the pre-fix symptom from the real user-facing entrypoint
+   when feasible. If the issue cannot be reproduced, capture the exact command
+   and observed behavior instead.
+2. Patch locally and run narrow local tests for edit speed.
+3. Run one Crabbox E2E command that starts from the user-facing entrypoint:
+   package install, Docker setup, onboarding, channel add, gateway start, or
+   agent turn as appropriate.
+4. Record proof as: Testbox id, command, environment shape, redacted secret
+   source, and copied success/failure output.
+5. If the issue says "cannot reproduce", ask for the missing config/log fields
+   that would distinguish the tested path from the reporter's path.
+
+Keep it efficient:
+
+- Reuse existing E2E scripts and helper assertions before writing ad hoc shell.
+- Use `--script <file>` or `--script-stdin` for multi-line E2E commands instead
+  of quote-heavy `--shell` strings on direct SSH providers.
+- Use `--fresh-pr <pr>` when validating an upstream PR in isolation from the
+  local dirty tree. Add `--apply-local-patch` only when testing a local fixup on
+  top of that PR.
+- Use `--full-resync` before replacing a warmed direct-provider lease when the
+  remote workdir or sync fingerprint appears stale.
+- Use one-shot Crabbox for a single proof; use a reusable Testbox only when
+  several commands must share built images, installed packages, or live state.
+- Prefer `OPENCLAW_CURRENT_PACKAGE_TGZ` with Docker/package lanes when testing a
+  candidate tarball; prefer the repo's package helper instead of direct source
+  execution when the bug might be packaging/install related.
+- Keep secrets redacted. It is fine to report key presence, source, and length;
+  never print secret values.
+- Include `--timing-json` on broad or flaky runs when command duration or sync
+  behavior matters.
+
+Before/after PR proof on delegated Testbox:
+
+- For PRs that should prove "broken before, fixed after", compare base and PR
+  on the same Testbox when practical. Fetch both refs, create detached temp
+  worktrees under `/tmp`, install in each, then run the same harness twice.
+- Do not checkout base/PR refs in the synced repo root. Delegated Testbox sync
+  may leave the root dirty with local files; `git checkout` can abort or mix
+  proof state.
+- Temp harness files under `/tmp` do not resolve repo packages by default. Put
+  the harness inside the worktree, or in ESM use
+  `createRequire(path.join(process.cwd(), "package.json"))` before requiring
+  workspace deps such as `@lydell/node-pty`.
+- For full-screen TUI/CLI bugs, a PTY harness is stronger than helper-only
+  assertions. Use a real PTY, wait for visible lifecycle markers, send input,
+  then send control keys and assert process exit/stuck behavior.
+- When validating a rebased local branch before push, remember delegated sync
+  usually validates synced file content on a detached dirty checkout, not a
+  remote commit object. Record the local head SHA, changed files, Testbox id,
+  and final success markers; after pushing, ensure the pushed SHA has the same
+  file content.
+- If GitHub CI is still queued but the exact changed content passed Testbox
+  `pnpm check:changed`, `pnpm check:test-types`, and the real E2E proof, it is
+  reasonable to merge once required checks allow it. Note any still-running
+  unrelated shards in the proof comment instead of waiting forever.
+
+Interactive CLI/onboarding:
+
+- For full-screen or prompt-heavy CLI flows, run the target command inside tmux
+  on the Crabbox and drive it with `tmux send-keys`; capture proof with
+  `tmux capture-pane`, redacted through `sed`.
+- Prefer deterministic arrow navigation over search typing for Clack-style
+  searchable selects. Raw `send-keys -l openai` may not trigger filtering in a
+  tmux pane; inspect option order locally or on-box and send exact Down/Enter
+  sequences.
+- Isolate mutable state with `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR=$(mktemp -d)`. Plugin npm
+  installs live under that state dir (`npm/node_modules/...`), not under
+  `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_DIR`. Verify downloads by checking the state dir, package
+  lock, and installed package metadata.
+- To test automatic setup installs against local package artifacts, use
+  `OPENCLAW_ALLOW_PLUGIN_INSTALL_OVERRIDES=1` plus
+  `OPENCLAW_PLUGIN_INSTALL_OVERRIDES='{"plugin-id":"npm-pack:/tmp/plugin.tgz"}'`.
+  Pack with `npm pack`, set an isolated `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR`, and verify the
+  package under `npm/node_modules`. Overrides are test-only and must not be
+  treated as official/trusted-source installs.
+- For OpenAI/Codex onboarding proof, the useful markers are the UI line
+  `Installed Codex plugin`, `npm/node_modules/@openclaw/codex`, and the
+  package-lock entry showing the bundled `@openai/codex` dependency. A dummy
+  OpenAI-shaped key can prove only UI/install behavior; it is not live auth.
+
+## Reuse And Keepalive
+
+For most Crabbox calls, one-shot is enough. Use reuse only when you need
+multiple manual commands on the same hydrated box.
+
+If Crabbox returns a reusable id or you intentionally keep a lease:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --no-sync --timing-json --shell -- "pnpm test <path>"
+```
+
+Stop boxes you created before handoff:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:stop -- <id-or-slug>
+blacksmith testbox stop --id <tbx_id>
+```
+
+## Interactive Desktop And WebVNC
+
+Prefer WebVNC for human inspection because the browser portal can preload the
+lease VNC password and avoids a native VNC client's copy/paste/password dance.
+Use native `crabbox vnc` only when WebVNC is unavailable, the browser portal is
+broken, or the user explicitly wants a local VNC client.
+
+Common desktop flow:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox warmup --provider hetzner --desktop --browser --class standard --idle-timeout 60m --ttl 240m
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop launch --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --browser --url https://example.com --webvnc --open --take-control
+```
+
+Useful WebVNC commands:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --open --take-control
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc daemon start --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --open --take-control
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc daemon status --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug>
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc daemon stop --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug>
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc status --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug>
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox webvnc reset --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --open --take-control
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop doctor --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug>
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop click --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --x 640 --y 420
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop paste --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --text "user@example.com"
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox desktop key --provider hetzner --id <cbx_id-or-slug> ctrl+l
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox artifacts collect --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --all --output artifacts/<slug>
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox artifacts publish --dir artifacts/<slug> --pr <number>
+```
+
+`desktop launch --webvnc --open` is usually the nicest one-shot: it starts the
+browser/app inside the visible session, bridges the lease into the authenticated
+WebVNC portal, and opens the portal. Keep browsers windowed for human QA; use
+`--fullscreen` only for capture/video workflows.
+For human handoff, include `--take-control` so the opened portal viewer gets
+keyboard/mouse control automatically instead of landing as an observer.
+
+Human handoff preflight:
+
+- Do not assume a visible desktop or launched browser means the repo CLI/app is
+  installed, built, or on the interactive terminal's `PATH`.
+- Before handing WebVNC to a human tester, prove the expected command from the
+  same kept lease and from a neutral directory such as `~`.
+- If the handoff needs repo-local code, sync/build/link it explicitly on that
+  lease. Source-tree CLIs often need build output before a symlink works.
+- Prefer a real `command -v <expected-command> && <expected-command> --version`
+  check over a repo-root-only `pnpm ...` command.
+
+Generic handoff repair pattern:
+
+```sh
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox run --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --full-resync --shell -- \
+  "set -euo pipefail
+   pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
+   pnpm build
+   sudo ln -sf \"\$PWD/<cli-entry>\" /usr/local/bin/<expected-command>
+   cd ~
+   command -v <expected-command>
+   <expected-command> --version"
+```
+
+## If Crabbox Fails
+
+Keep the fallback narrow. First decide whether the failure is Crabbox itself,
+the brokered AWS lease, Blacksmith/Testbox, repo hydration, sync, or the test
+command.
+
+Fast checks:
+
+```sh
+command -v crabbox
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox --version
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --help | sed -n '1,140p'
+../crabbox/bin/crabbox doctor
+command -v blacksmith
+blacksmith --version
+blacksmith testbox list
+```
+
+Common Crabbox-only failures:
+
+- Provider missing or old CLI: use `../crabbox/bin/crabbox` from the sibling
+  repo, or update/install Crabbox before retrying.
+- Bad local config: inspect `.crabbox.yaml`, `crabbox config show`, and
+  `crabbox whoami`; normal OpenClaw proof should use brokered AWS without
+  asking for cloud keys.
+- Slug/claim confusion: use the raw `cbx_...` / `tbx_...` id, or run one-shot
+  without `--id`.
+- Sync/timing bug: add `--debug --timing-json`; capture the final JSON and the
+  printed Actions URL. Large sync warnings now include top source directories
+  by file count and a hint to update `.crabboxignore` / `sync.exclude`; inspect
+  those before reaching for `--force-sync-large`. Quiet rsync watchdogs and SSH
+  timeouts now print `next_action=` hints; follow them, usually `--full-resync`
+  first and a fresh lease second.
+- Cleanup uncertainty: run `crabbox list --provider aws`; for explicit
+  Blacksmith runs, use `blacksmith testbox list` and stop only boxes you
+  created.
+- Testbox queued/capacity pressure: do not retry Blacksmith repeatedly. Rerun
+  once without `--provider` so `.crabbox.yaml` routes to brokered AWS, or report
+  the Blacksmith blocker if Testbox itself is the requested proof.
+
+If brokered AWS cannot dispatch, sync, attach, or stop, retry once with
+`--debug` and `--timing-json`:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --debug --timing-json -- \
+  CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test:changed
+```
+
+Full suite:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --debug --timing-json -- \
+  CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test
+```
+
+Auth fallback, only when `blacksmith` says auth is missing:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith auth login --non-interactive --organization openclaw
+```
+
+Raw Blacksmith footguns:
+
+- Run from repo root. The CLI syncs the current directory.
+- Save the returned `tbx_...` id in the session.
+- Reuse that id for focused reruns; stop it before handoff.
+- Raw commit SHAs are not reliable `warmup --ref` refs; use a branch or tag.
+- Treat `blacksmith testbox list` as cleanup diagnostics, not a shared reusable
+  queue.
+
+Use Blacksmith only when the task is specifically about Testbox, brokered AWS
+is unavailable, or an explicit comparison is needed. If Blacksmith is down or
+quota-limited, do not keep probing it; stay on brokered AWS and note the
+delegated-provider outage.
+
+## Blacksmith Backend Notes
+
+Crabbox Blacksmith backend delegates setup to:
+
+- org: `openclaw`
+- workflow: `.github/workflows/ci-check-testbox.yml`
+- job: `check`
+- ref: `main` unless testing a branch/tag intentionally
+
+The hydration workflow owns checkout, Node/pnpm setup, dependency install,
+secrets, ready marker, and keepalive. Crabbox owns dispatch, sync, SSH command
+execution, timing, logs/results, and cleanup.
+
+Minimal Blacksmith-backed Crabbox run, from repo root:
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --provider blacksmith-testbox --timing-json -- \
+  CI=1 NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 pnpm test:changed
+```
+
+Use direct Blacksmith only when Crabbox is the broken layer and you are
+isolating a Crabbox bug. Prefer direct `blacksmith testbox list` for cleanup
+diagnostics, not as a reusable work queue.
+
+Important Blacksmith footguns:
+
+- Always run from repo root. The CLI syncs the current directory.
+- Raw commit SHAs are not reliable `warmup --ref` refs; use a branch or tag.
+- If auth is missing and browser auth is acceptable:
+
+```sh
+blacksmith auth login --non-interactive --organization openclaw
+```
+
+## Brokered AWS
+
+Use AWS for normal OpenClaw remote proof. The repo `.crabbox.yaml` already
+selects brokered AWS, so omit `--provider` unless you are testing a different
+provider deliberately.
+
+```sh
+pnpm crabbox:warmup -- --class beast --market on-demand --idle-timeout 90m
+pnpm crabbox:hydrate -- --id <cbx_id-or-slug>
+pnpm crabbox:run -- --id <cbx_id-or-slug> --timing-json --shell -- "env NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 OPENCLAW_TEST_PROJECTS_PARALLEL=6 OPENCLAW_VITEST_MAX_WORKERS=1 OPENCLAW_VITEST_NO_OUTPUT_TIMEOUT_MS=900000 pnpm test:changed"
+pnpm crabbox:stop -- <cbx_id-or-slug>
+```
+
+Install/auth for owned Crabbox if needed:
+
+```sh
+brew install openclaw/tap/crabbox
+crabbox login --url https://crabbox.openclaw.ai --provider aws
+```
+
+New users should self-resolve broker auth before anyone asks for AWS keys:
+
+```sh
+crabbox config show
+crabbox doctor
+crabbox whoami
+```
+
+- If broker auth is missing, run `crabbox login --url https://crabbox.openclaw.ai --provider aws`.
+- If the CLI asks for `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, or AWS
+  profile setup during normal OpenClaw validation, assume the agent selected
+  the wrong path. Use brokered `crabbox login` or an existing brokered lease
+  before asking the user for cloud credentials.
+- Ask for AWS keys only for explicit direct-provider/account administration,
+  not for normal brokered OpenClaw proof.
+- Trusted automation may still use
+  `printf '%s' "$CRABBOX_COORDINATOR_TOKEN" | crabbox login --url https://crabbox.openclaw.ai --provider aws --token-stdin`.
+
+macOS config lives at:
+
+```text
+~/Library/Application Support/crabbox/config.yaml
+```
+
+It should include `broker.url`, `broker.token`, and usually `provider: aws`
+for OpenClaw lanes. Let that config drive normal validation.
+
+### Interactive Desktop / WebVNC
+
+For human desktop demos, prefer `webvnc` over native `vnc` and keep the remote
+desktop visible/windowed. Do not fullscreen the remote browser or hide the XFCE
+panel/window chrome unless the explicit goal is video/capture output. After
+launch, verify a screenshot shows the desktop panel plus browser title bar. If
+Chrome is fullscreen, toggle it back with:
+
+```sh
+crabbox run --id <lease> --shell -- 'DISPLAY=:99 xdotool search --onlyvisible --class google-chrome windowactivate key F11'
+```
+
+## Diagnostics
+
+```sh
+crabbox status --id <id-or-slug> --wait
+crabbox inspect --id <id-or-slug> --json
+crabbox sync-plan
+crabbox history --limit 20
+crabbox history --lease <id-or-slug>
+crabbox attach <run_id>
+crabbox events <run_id> --json
+crabbox logs <run_id>
+crabbox results <run_id>
+crabbox cache stats --id <id-or-slug>
+crabbox ssh --id <id-or-slug>
+blacksmith testbox list
+```
+
+Use `--debug` on `run` when measuring sync timing.
+Use `--timing-json` on warmup, hydrate, and run when comparing backends.
+Use `--market spot|on-demand` only on AWS warmup/one-shot runs.
+
+## Failure Triage
+
+- Crabbox cannot find provider: verify `../crabbox/bin/crabbox --help` lists
+  the provider selected by `.crabbox.yaml`; update Crabbox before falling back.
+- Hydration stuck or failed: open the printed GitHub Actions run URL and inspect
+  the hydration step.
+- Sync failed: rerun with `--debug`; check changed-file count and whether the
+  checkout is dirty.
+- Command failed: rerun only the failing shard/file first. Do not rerun a full
+  suite until the focused failure is understood.
+- Cleanup uncertain: `crabbox list --provider aws`; for explicit Blacksmith
+  runs, use `blacksmith testbox list` and stop owned `tbx_...` leases you
+  created.
+- Crabbox broken but Blacksmith works: use the direct Blacksmith fallback above,
+  then file/fix the Crabbox issue.
+
+## Boundary
+
+Do not add OpenClaw-specific setup to Crabbox itself. Put repo setup in the
+hydration workflow and keep Crabbox generic around lease, sync, command
+execution, logs/results, timing, and cleanup.

+
+# Peekaboo Release
+
+Release `~/Projects/Peekaboo` as the npm package `@steipete/peekaboo` plus signed/notarized macOS app assets.
+
+Use `$one-password`, `$browser-use`, `$npm`, `$autoreview`, and repo `AGENTS.md` rules. Load `$release-private` if it exists before resolving Peter-owned credential locators. Read `$npm` before any npm auth, token, or publish recovery work. Keep all `op` secret work inside one persistent tmux session. Never print `.p8`, npm tokens, passwords, or OTPs.
+
+## Current Secrets
+
+- Peter-owned credential item names, key ids, issuer ids, keychain paths, and npm token locators live in `$release-private`.
+- Required ASC fields: `key_id`, `issuer_id`, `private_key_p8`.
+- Stale/revoked key symptom: `xcrun notarytool submit` fails with `HTTP status code: 401. Unauthenticated`.
+- All ASC fields must come from the same current item; do not mix profile values with 1Password refs.
+
+Sparkle key:
+
+- Repo `.mac-release.env` has the current fallback.
+- Do not set `SPARKLE_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE` for normal releases.
+
+Developer ID release keychain:
+
+- Resolve the release keychain item/path from `$release-private`.
+- If macOS shows `codesign wants to use the release keychain`, enter the keychain item password, not the Developer ID `.p12` password.
+- The Developer ID certificate password is only for importing the `.p12` while creating the keychain.
+- After setup/import, run `security unlock-keychain` and `security set-key-partition-list -S apple-tool:,apple:,codesign: -s -k "$KEYCHAIN_PASSWORD" "$KEYCHAIN_PATH"` so `codesign` can use the identity without GUI prompts.
+
+npm publish token:
+
+- Resolve token/TOTP locators from `$release-private`.
+- Use `$npm` rules. Run inside the same tmux session, write only a temp npmrc, delete it immediately, and use the `npmjs` TOTP item for web auth if npm prompts.
+- Do not create short-lived/granular bypass tokens for a normal Peekaboo publish. They add cleanup risk and did not help the 3.2.1 slow-upload/web-auth path.
+
+## Notary Credential Check
+
+Use the service account from `$release-private` first. Put the token in the tmux environment without printing it:
+
+```bash
+# Resolve SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN from $release-private first.
+tmux -S "$SOCKET" set-environment -t "$SESSION" OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN "$SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN"
+```
+
+Create a temp env file with service-account refs from `$release-private`:
+
+```text
+APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_P8=<1Password ref from release-private>
+APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID=<1Password ref from release-private>
+APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID=<1Password ref from release-private>
+```
+
+Before a release, verify shape and Apple auth without printing values:
+
+```bash
+op run --env-file "$ENVFILE" -- bash -c '
+  set -euo pipefail
+  KEY_FILE="/tmp/AuthKey_${APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID}.p8"
+  printf "%s\n" "$APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_P8" > "$KEY_FILE"
+  chmod 600 "$KEY_FILE"
+  xcrun notarytool history \
+    --key "$KEY_FILE" \
+    --key-id "$APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID" \
+    --issuer "$APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID" \
+    --output-format json >/dev/null
+  rm -f "$KEY_FILE"
+'
+```
+
+Peekaboo forces `notarytool submit --no-s3-acceleration`; the default S3 accelerated upload path can return a misleading `401` even when `history` auth succeeds.
+
+If both `history` and non-S3 `submit` fail, suspect wrong access level or stale key. Browser route:
+
+1. Use `$browser-use` real Chrome profile.
+2. Open `https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/access/integrations/api`.
+3. Generate Team Key named `Peekaboo Release <version>` with `Admin` access.
+4. Download `.p8` once from the key row.
+5. Store immediately into the private credential map; verify `notarytool history`; delete `~/Downloads/AuthKey_<key_id>.p8`.
+6. Revoke the older Peekaboo release key after the new key validates.
+
+## Release Flow
+
+1. Start on clean `main`; pull ff-only if needed.
+2. Set version in:
+   - `package.json`
+   - `version.json`
+   - `Apps/CLI/Sources/Resources/version.json`
+   - README npm badge
+   - `Core/PeekabooCore/Sources/PeekabooAgentRuntime/MCP/PeekabooMCPVersion.swift`
+   - Xcode marketing versions under `Apps/*`
+3. Date `CHANGELOG.md` and `Apps/CLI/CHANGELOG.md` for the release.
+4. Run focused proof or release script preflight. Release gates must be warning-free.
+5. Use `$autoreview` before commit unless the change is trivial/docs-only.
+6. Commit release prep with `committer`.
+7. Push `main`.
+8. Run:
+
+```bash
+op run --env-file "$ENVFILE" -- \
+  bash -c 'printf "y\n" | ./scripts/release-binaries.sh --create-github-release --publish-npm'
+```
+
+The script builds universal CLI, npm package, signed/notarized app zip, appcast, checksums, draft GitHub release, and npm publish.
+Use a non-login shell: profile exports can replace current 1Password ASC IDs with stale values while leaving the current `.p8`, producing a misleading `401`.
+
+Notarized releases must sign with `Developer ID Application: Peter Steinberger (Y5PE65HELJ)`, not `Apple Development`. If your shell has `SIGN_IDENTITY` exported for CLI builds, override it for the release command.
+
+If npm upload is slow and TOTP expires, use the stored npm token through a temp npmrc and complete npm web auth immediately when prompted with the configured TOTP. Do not create granular bypass tokens for this; if one was created by mistake, delete it before closeout.
+
+## Verify
+
+Required before closeout:
+
+```bash
+npm view @steipete/peekaboo@<version> version dist-tags dist.tarball dist.integrity time --json
+(cd /tmp && npm exec --yes --package=@steipete/peekaboo@<version> -- peekaboo --version)
+gh release view v<version> --repo openclaw/Peekaboo --json tagName,isDraft,isPrerelease,url,assets,body
+xmllint --noout appcast.xml
+git status --short --branch
+```
+
+Confirm:
+
+- npm version exists and `latest` points to it.
+- npm-downloaded CLI reports the release version from a neutral cwd.
+- GitHub release/tag/assets exist; release body is from changelog.
+- app zip asset exists and appcast points at `v<version>`.
+- `appcast.xml` changes are committed and pushed.
+- Publish draft release if the script leaves it draft.
+
+## Closeout
+
+1. Add next patch `Unreleased` section to root and CLI changelogs.
+2. Commit with `committer "docs(changelog): open <next-version>" CHANGELOG.md Apps/CLI/CHANGELOG.md`.
+3. Push.
+4. Watch release/homebrew/CI workflows if triggered.
+5. `git checkout main && git pull --ff-only && git status --short --branch`.
+6. Clear tmux `OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN`, remove temp env/key files, and final with what landed.

-# Agent Instructions
-
-This file provides guidance to AI assistants when working with code in this repository.
-
-## Project Overview
-
-This is the `peekaboo` project, which provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables executing AppleScript and JavaScript for Automation (JXA) scripts on macOS. The server features a knowledge base of pre-defined scripts accessible by ID and supports inline scripts, script files, and argument passing.
-
-## Architecture
-
-- **Server Configuration**: The server reads configuration from environment variables like `LOG_LEVEL` and `KB_PARSING`.
-- **MCP Tools**: Two main tools are provided:
-  1. `execute_script`: Executes AppleScript/JXA from inline content, file path, or knowledge base ID
-  2. `get_scripting_tips`: Retrieves information from the knowledge base
-- **Knowledge Base**: A collection of pre-defined scripts stored as Markdown files in `knowledge_base/` directory with YAML frontmatter
-- **ScriptExecutor**: Core component that executes scripts via `osascript` command
-
-## Knowledge Base System
-
-The knowledge base (`knowledge_base/` directory) contains numerous Markdown files organized by category:
-- Each file has YAML frontmatter with metadata: `id`, `title`, `description`, `language`, etc.
-- The actual script code is contained in the Markdown body in a fenced code block
-- Scripts can use placeholders like `--MCP_INPUT:keyName` and `--MCP_ARG_N` for parameter substitution
-
-## Common Development Commands
-
-```bash
-# Install dependencies
-npm install
-
-# Run the server in development mode with hot reloading
-npm run dev
-
-# Build the TypeScript project
-npm run build
-
-# Start the compiled server
-npm run start
-
-# Lint the codebase
-npm run lint
-
-# Format the codebase
-npm run format
-
-# Validate the knowledge base
-npm run validate
-```
-
-## Environment Variables
-
-- `LOG_LEVEL`: Set logging level (`DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARN`, `ERROR`) - default is `INFO`
-- `KB_PARSING`: Controls when knowledge base is parsed:
-  - `lazy` (default): Parsed on first request
-  - `eager`: Parsed when server starts
-
-## Working with the Knowledge Base
-
-When adding new scripts to the knowledge base:
-1. Create a new `.md` file in the appropriate category folder
-2. Include required YAML frontmatter (`title`, `description`, etc.)
-3. Add the script code in a fenced code block
-4. Run `npm run validate` to ensure the new content is correctly formatted
-
-## Code Execution Flow
-
-1. The `server.ts` file defines the MCP server and its tools
-2. `knowledgeBaseService.ts` loads and indexes scripts from the knowledge base
-3. `ScriptExecutor.ts` handles the actual execution of scripts
-4. Input validation is handled via Zod schemas in `schemas.ts`
-5. Logging is managed by the `Logger` class in `logger.ts`
-
-## Security and Permissions
-
-Remember that scripts run on macOS require specific permissions:
-- Automation permissions for controlling applications
-- Accessibility permissions for UI scripting via System Events
-- Full Disk Access for certain file operations
-
-## Agent Operational Learnings and Debugging Strategies
-
-This section captures key operational strategies and debugging techniques for the agent (me) based on collaborative sessions.
-
-### Prioritizing Log Visibility for Debugging
-
-When an external tool or script (like AppleScript via `osascript`) returns cryptic errors, or when agent-generated code/substitutions might be faulty:
-
-1.  **Suspect Dynamic Content**: Issues often stem from the dynamic content being passed to the external tool (e.g., incorrect placeholder substitutions leading to syntax errors in the target language).
-2.  **Enable/Add Detailed Logging**: Prioritize enabling any built-in detailed logging features of the tool in question (e.g., `includeSubstitutionLogs: true` for this project's `execute_script` tool).
-3.  **Ensure Log Visibility**: If standard debug logging doesn't appear in the primary output channel the user is observing, attempt to modify the code to force critical diagnostic information (like step-by-step transformations, variable states, or the exact content being passed externally) into that main output. This might involve temporarily altering the structure of the success or error messages to include these logs.
-    *   **Confirm Restarts and Code Version**: For changes requiring server restarts (common in this project), leverage any features that confirm the new code is active. For example, the server startup timestamp and execution mode info appended to `get_scripting_tips` output helps verify that a restart was successful and the intended code version (e.g., TypeScript source via `tsx` vs. compiled `dist/server.js`) is running.
-
-### Iterative Simplification for Complex Patterns (e.g., Regex)
-
-If a complex pattern (like a regular expression) in code being generated or modified by the agent is not working as expected, and the cause isn't immediately obvious:
-
-1.  **Isolate the Pattern**: Identify the specific complex pattern (e.g., a regex for string replacement).
-2.  **Drastically Simplify**: Reduce the pattern to its most basic form that should still achieve a part of the goal or match a core component of the target string. (e.g., simplifying `/(?:["'])--MCP_INPUT:(\w+)(?:["'])/g` to `/--MCP_INPUT:/g` to test basic matching of the placeholder prefix).
-3.  **Test the Simple Form**: Verify if this simplified pattern works. If it does, the core string manipulation mechanism is likely sound.
-4.  **Incrementally Rebuild & Test**: Gradually add back elements of the original complexity (e.g., capture groups, character sets, quantifiers, lookarounds, backreferences like `\1`). Test at each incremental step to pinpoint which specific construct or combination introduces the failure. This process helped identify that `(?:["'])` was problematic in our placeholder regex, leading to a solution using a capturing group and a backreference like `/(["'])--MCP_INPUT:(\w+)\1/g`.
-5.  **Verify Replacement Logic**: Ensure that if the pattern involves capturing groups for use in a replacement, the replacement logic correctly utilizes these captures and produces the intended output format (e.g., `valueToAppleScriptLiteral` for AppleScript).
-
-This methodical approach is more effective than repeatedly trying minor variations of an already complex and failing pattern.

-- `run_terminal_cmd`
-- `mcp_playwright_browser_navigate`
-- `mcp_playwright_browser_type`

-- The path to the `start.sh` script will be specified as `[WORKSPACE_PATH]/start.sh`.
-- The AI assistant executing this rule **MUST** replace `[WORKSPACE_PATH]` with the absolute path to the user's current project workspace (e.g., as found in the `<user_info>` context block during rule execution).
-- Example of a resolved path if the workspace is `/Users/username/Projects/my-mcp-project`: `/Users/username/Projects/my-mcp-project/start.sh`.
-
----
-**Main Flow:**
-
-**Phase 1: Start MCP Inspector Server**
-1.  **Kill Existing Inspector Processes:**
-    *   Action: Call `run_terminal_cmd`.
-    *   `command`: `pkill -f 'npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector' || true`
-    *   `is_background`: `false`
-    *   Expected: Cleans up any lingering Inspector processes.
-2.  **Start New Inspector Process:**
-    *   Action: Call `run_terminal_cmd`.
-    *   `command`: `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector`
-    *   `is_background`: `true`
-    *   Expected: MCP Inspector starts in the background.
-3.  **Wait for Inspector Initialization:**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_wait_for`.
-    *   `time`: `10` (seconds)
-    *   Expected: Allows ample time for the Inspector server to be ready. This step requires an active Playwright page, so it's implicitly preceded by navigation in Phase 2 if the browser isn't already open.
-
-**Phase 2: Connect to Server via Playwright**
-1.  **Navigate to Inspector URL:**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_navigate`.
-    *   `url`: `http://127.0.0.1:6274`
-    *   Expected: Playwright opens the MCP Inspector web UI.
-    *   Snapshot: Take a snapshot (`mcp_playwright_browser_snapshot`) to confirm page load and identify initial form element references (`ref`).
-2.  **Fill Form (Command & Args only):**
-    *   **Set Command:**
-        *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_type`.
-        *   `element`: "Command textbox" (Obtain `ref` from snapshot).
-        *   `text`: `macos-automator-mcp`
-    *   **Set Arguments:**
-        *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_type`.
-        *   `element`: "Arguments textbox" (Obtain `ref` from snapshot).
-        *   `text`: `[WORKSPACE_PATH]/start.sh` (This placeholder MUST be replaced by the AI executing the rule with the absolute path to the user's current workspace).
-    *   *(Note: Environment Variables are skipped in this flow for simplicity and stability, as issues were previously observed when setting LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG during connection.)*
-3.  **Click "Connect":**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_click`.
-    *   `element`: "Connect button" (Obtain `ref` from snapshot).
-    *   Expected: Connection to the `macos-automator-mcp` server is established.
-    *   Snapshot: Take a snapshot. Verify connection status (e.g., text changes to "Connected") and check for initial server logs in the UI.
-
-**Phase 3: Interact with a Tool via Playwright**
-1.  **List Tools:**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_click`.
-    *   `element`: "List Tools button" (Obtain `ref` from the latest snapshot).
-    *   Expected: The list of available tools from the `macos-automator-mcp` server is displayed.
-    *   Snapshot: Take a snapshot. Verify tools like `execute_script` and `get_scripting_tips` are visible.
-2.  **Select 'get_scripting_tips' Tool:**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_click`.
-    *   `element`: "get_scripting_tips tool in list" (Obtain `ref` by identifying it in the snapshot's tool list).
-    *   Expected: The parameters form for `get_scripting_tips` is displayed in the right-hand panel.
-    *   Snapshot: Take a snapshot. Verify the right panel shows details for `get_scripting_tips` (e.g., its name, description, and parameter fields like 'searchTerm', 'listCategories', etc.).
-3.  **Execute 'get_scripting_tips' (default parameters):**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_click`.
-    *   `element`: "Run Tool button" (Obtain `ref` for the 'Run Tool' button specific to the `get_scripting_tips` form in the right panel from the snapshot).
-    *   Expected: The `get_scripting_tips` tool is executed with its default parameters.
-    *   Snapshot: Take a snapshot.
-
-**Phase 4: Verify Tool Execution and Logs in Playwright**
-1.  **Check for Results in UI:**
-    *   Action: Examine the latest snapshot.
-    *   Look for: The results of the `get_scripting_tips` call (e.g., a list of script categories if `listCategories` was implicitly true by default, or an empty result if no default search term was run).
-    *   The results should appear in the 'Result from tool' or a similarly named section within the right-hand panel where the tool's form was.
-2.  **Check Console Logs (Optional but Recommended):**
-    *   Action: Call `mcp_playwright_browser_console_messages`.
-    *   Expected: Review for any errors or relevant messages from the Inspector or the tool interaction.
-3.  **Check MCP Server Logs in UI:**
-    *   Action: Examine the latest snapshot.
-    *   Look for: Logs related to the `get_scripting_tips` tool execution in the main server log panel (usually bottom-left, titled "Error output from MCP server" or similar, but also shows general logs).
-
-**Troubleshooting Notes:**
-- If connection fails, check the `run_terminal_cmd` output for the Inspector to ensure it started correctly.
-- Check Playwright console messages for clues.
-- Ensure the `[WORKSPACE_PATH]` was correctly resolved and points to an existing `start.sh` script.
-- Element `ref` values can change. Always use the latest snapshot to get correct `ref` values before an interaction.
-- Shadow DOM: The MCP Inspector UI uses Shadow DOM extensively for the tool details and results panels. Playwright's default selectors should pierce Shadow DOM, but if issues arise with finding elements *within* the tool panel (right-hand side after selecting a tool), be mindful of this. The provided flow assumes Playwright's auto-piercing handles this sufficiently.

-### Meta Note
-
-This file, `safari.mdc`, serves as a repository for detailed working notes, observations, and learnings acquired during the process of automating Safari interactions, particularly for the MCP Inspector UI. It's intended to capture the nuances of trial-and-error, debugging steps, and insights into what worked, what didn't, and why.
-
-This contrasts with `mcp-inspector.mdc`, which is designed to be the concise, polished, and operational ruleset for future automated runs once a specific automation flow (like connecting to the MCP Inspector) has been stabilized and proven reliable. `mcp-inspector.mdc` should contain the 'final' working scripts and minimal necessary commentary, while `safari.mdc` is the space for the extended antechamber of discovery.

-### Key Learnings and Observations from Safari Automation (MCP Inspector)
-
-#### 1. Managing Safari Windows and Tabs for the Inspector
-
-*   **Objective:** Reliably direct Safari to the MCP Inspector URL (`http://127.0.0.1:6274`) in a predictable way, preferably using a single, consistent browser window and tab to avoid disrupting the user's workspace or losing context.
-*   **Initial Challenges & Evolution:
-    *   Simply using `make new document with properties {URL:"..."}` could lead to multiple windows/tabs if not managed.
-    *   Attempts to close all existing Inspector tabs first (`repeat with w in windows... close t...`) were functional but could be overly aggressive if the user had other work in Safari.
-    *   Identifying and reusing an *existing specific tab* for the Inspector requires careful targeting (e.g., `first tab whose URL starts with "..."`). If this tab was from a previous, unconfigured session, just switching to it wasn't enough; it needed to be reloaded/reset.
-*   **Refined & Recommended Approach (as implemented in `mcp-inspector.mdc`):
-    ```applescript
-    tell application "Safari"
-      activate
-      delay 0.2 -- Allow Safari to become the frontmost application
-      if (count of windows) is 0 then
-        -- No Safari windows are open, so create a new one.
-        make new document with properties {URL:"http://127.0.0.1:6274"}
-      else
-        -- Safari has windows open; use the frontmost one.
-        tell front window
-          set inspectorTab to missing value
-          try
-            -- Check if a tab for the Inspector is already open in this window.
-            set inspectorTab to (first tab whose URL starts with "http://127.0.0.1:6274")
-          end try
-          
-          if inspectorTab is not missing value then
-            -- An Inspector tab exists: set its URL again (to refresh/reset) and make it active.
-            set URL of inspectorTab to "http://127.0.0.1:6274"
-            set current tab to inspectorTab
-          else
-            -- No specific Inspector tab found: set the URL of the *current active tab*.
-            set URL of current tab to "http://127.0.0.1:6274"
-          end if
-        end tell
-      end if
-      delay 1 -- Pause to allow the page to begin loading.
-    end tell
-    ```
-    This logic aims to use the existing front window and either reuse/refresh an Inspector tab or repurpose the current active tab, falling back to creating a new window only if Safari isn't open.
-
-#### 2. Clicking Elements Programmatically (The "Connect" Button Saga)
-
-*   **The Core Challenge:** Programmatically clicking the "Connect" button in the MCP Inspector UI to initiate the server connection.
-*   **Strategies Explored & Lessons:
-    *   **CSS Selectors (`querySelector`):**
-        *   Simple selectors like `[data-testid='env-vars-button']` worked for some buttons but required escaping single quotes in AppleScript: `do JavaScript "document.querySelector('[data-testid=\\\'env-vars-button\\']').click();"`.
-        *   A complex `querySelector` for the "Connect" button (e.g., `'button[data-testid*=connect-button], button:not([disabled])... > span:contains(Connect)...'.click()`) ran without JS error but didn't reliably establish the connection, suggesting it might not have found the exact interactable element or the click wasn't registering correctly.
-    *   **XPath (`document.evaluate`):**
-        *   **Highly Specific XPaths:** An initial XPath based on the rule (`//button[contains(., 'Connect') and .//svg[.//polygon[@points='6 3 20 12 6 21 6 3']]]`) was very difficult to embed correctly in AppleScript due to nested single quotes requiring complex escaping (`\'`). This often led to AppleScript parsing errors (`-2741`).
-        *   **`character id 39` for AppleScript String Construction:** To combat escaping issues, building the JavaScript string in AppleScript using `set sQuote to character id 39` for internal single quotes was effective for getting the AppleScript parser to accept the command. Example:
-            ```applescript
-            set sQuote to character id 39
-            set jsConnectText to "Connect"
-            set specificXPath to "//button[contains(., " & sQuote & jsConnectText & sQuote & ") and .//svg[.//polygon[@points=" & sQuote & "6 3 20 12 6 21 6 3" & sQuote & "]]]"
-            set jsCommand to "document.evaluate(" & sQuote & specificXPath & sQuote & ", document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue.click();"
-            ```
-            While this made the AppleScript runnable, this very specific XPath still didn't reliably trigger the connection.
-        *   **Successful XPath:** The breakthrough came with a slightly less specific but more robust XPath: `//button[.//text()='Connect']`. This finds a button that *contains* a text node exactly matching "Connect".
-            *   JavaScript: `document.evaluate("//button[.//text()='Connect']", document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue.click();`
-            *   AppleScript embedding (note `\"` for JS string quotes):
-                ```applescript
-                set jsCommand to "document.evaluate(\"//button[.//text()='Connect']\", document, null, XPathResult.FIRST_ORDERED_NODE_TYPE, null).singleNodeValue.click();"
-                do JavaScript jsCommand in front document
-                ```
-            This method proved successful in clicking the button and establishing the connection.
-    *   **`dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent('click', ...))`:** This was tried as an alternative to `.click()` but did not yield a different outcome for the "Connect" button in this specific scenario.
-
-#### 3. JavaScript Construction and Execution in AppleScript
-
-*   **`do JavaScript "..."`:** This is the fundamental command.
-*   **String Literals and Escaping:**
-    *   If the AppleScript command itself is enclosed in double quotes (`"..."`), then any literal double quotes *within the JavaScript code* must be escaped as `\\"`.
-    *   Single quotes (`'`) within the JavaScript code usually do not need escaping in this context.
-    *   Example: `do JavaScript "var el = document.getElementById(\"myId\"); el.value = 'Hello\';"`
-*   **Long/Multiline JavaScript:**
-    *   Concatenating multiple AppleScript string literals using `&` (and optionally `¬` for line continuation) can build up a long JavaScript command. However, this can be fragile if not every part is perfectly quoted and escaped. Often, AppleScript parsing errors (`-2741`) occur before the JS is even attempted.
-    *   For complex JS, it's often more robust to ensure the entire JavaScript code is a single, well-formed string literal from AppleScript's perspective. If the JS itself is very complex, pre-constructing parts of it in AppleScript variables (especially strings that need careful quoting, like XPaths) can help.
-*   **Returning Values:** The `do JavaScript` command returns the result of the last JavaScript statement executed. This can be invaluable for debugging, e.g., `return 'Found element';` or `return element !== null;`.
-
-#### 4. Asynchronicity and Delays
-
-*   **Essential `delay` commands (Strategic vs. Tactical):**
-    *   **Strategic Delay (Crucial):** A critical lesson was the necessity of a significant delay (e.g., ~5 seconds) *after* an external process like the MCP Inspector is launched (e.g., via `npx` in iTerm) and *before* Safari automation attempts to interact with its web UI. This allows the external process and its web server to fully initialize. Without this, Safari automation might target a page that isn't ready or fully functional, leading to failures.
-    *   **Tactical Delays (Within Safari UI Automation - Often Avoidable):** Initially, small `delay` commands were used within Safari AppleScripts after actions like clicks or page loads (e.g., `delay 0.25`, `delay 1`). While these can sometimes help ensure the DOM is updated, the latest successful runs showed that if the backend/server (Inspector) is fully ready (due to the strategic delay), rapid Safari UI interactions (form filling, sequential clicks) can often be performed reliably *without* these internal micro-delays. Removing them can speed up the automation if the underlying application is responsive enough.
-    *   **Context is Key:** The need for tactical delays depends on how quickly the web application updates its DOM and responds to JavaScript events. For the MCP Inspector, once it's running, its UI seems to respond quickly enough to handle a sequence of JavaScript commands without interspersed AppleScript delays, provided the commands themselves are valid and target the correct elements.
-
-*   **Checking for Results:** When verifying an action (e.g., checking if `document.body.innerText.includes('Connected')`), it's vital that this check happens *after* the action has had a chance to complete and the UI to reflect the change. If running without tactical delays, this check should still be performed after the relevant JavaScript action that's supposed to cause the change.
-
-#### 5. MCP Inspector Specifics
-
-*   **URL Consistency:** The MCP Inspector URL (`http://127.0.0.1:6274`) was found to be consistent between runs, simplifying Safari targeting.
-*   **Server Logs in the Inspector UI:** It was confirmed that after the `macos-automator-mcp` server connects via the MCP Inspector, its startup and operational logs (e.g., `[macos_automator_server] [INFO] Starting...`) are displayed directly within the MCP Inspector's web interface in Safari. This is the primary place to check for these server-specific logs, rather than the iTerm console running the `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector` command (which shows the Inspector's own proxy/connection logs). The Safari UI shows "Connected" status, and the server logs within the UI provide detailed confirmation of the server's state.
-
-#### 6. Automating iTerm via AppleScript and Advanced Timing Considerations
-
-*   **Full iTerm Automation via AppleScript:** Due to persistent issues with iTerm-specific MCP tools (e.g., `mcp_iterm_send_control_character`, `mcp_iterm_write_to_terminal` consistently failing with "Tool not found" errors), a robust AppleScript workaround was developed and successfully implemented to manage the iTerm portion of the MCP Inspector setup. This script handles:
-    *   Activating iTerm.
-    *   Ensuring a window is available.
-    *   Sending a Control-C command to the current session using `System Events` (for reliability, targeting the iTerm process) to terminate any running commands.
-    *   Writing the `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector` command to the iTerm session to start the inspector.
-    *   The successful AppleScript structure is as follows (and now part of `mcp-inspector.mdc`):
-        ```applescript
-        tell application "iTerm"
-            activate
-            if (count of windows) is 0 then
-                create window with default profile
-                delay 0.5 # Brief delay for window creation
-            end if
-        end tell
-        delay 0.2 # Ensure iTerm is frontmost
-
-        tell application "System Events"
-            # Note: 'iTerm' process name might need to be 'iTerm2' for iTerm3+.
-            tell process "iTerm"
-                keystroke "c" using control down
-            end tell
-        end tell
-        delay 0.2 # Pause after Ctrl-C
-
-        tell application "iTerm"
-            tell current window
-                tell current session
-                    write text "npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector"
-                end tell
-            end tell
-        end tell
-        ```
-
-*   **iTerm Process Name in System Events:** When using `System Events` to control iTerm (e.g., for `keystroke`), the `tell process "iTerm"` command might need to be `tell process "iTerm2"` if using iTerm version 3 or later, as the application's registered process name can vary.
-
-*   **Reinforcing the Strategic Delay:** The success of running Safari UI automation steps *without* internal (tactical) delays is highly dependent on the *strategic* delay implemented *after* initiating the MCP Inspector in iTerm and *before* beginning any Safari interaction. A delay of approximately 5 seconds was found to be effective, allowing `npx` and the Inspector server to fully initialize. Attempting Safari automation too soon, especially without tactical delays, will likely result in failures as the web UI won't be ready or responsive.
-
-#### 7. Interacting with Shadow DOM (Advanced)
-
-*   **Identifying Shadow DOM:** Some web UIs, including potentially parts of the MCP Inspector (especially complex, self-contained components like the tool details and results panels), may use Shadow DOM to encapsulate their structure and styles. Standard `document.querySelector` or `document.evaluate` calls from the main document context will *not* pierce these shadow boundaries.
-*   **Symptoms of Shadow DOM:** If `document.body.innerText` seems to miss details of an active UI component, or if standard selectors fail for visible elements that are clearly part of a specific component, Shadow DOM may be in use.
-*   **Accessing Elements within Shadow DOM (Conceptual JavaScript Approach):**
-    To interact with elements inside a shadow root, you first need a reference to the host element, then access its `shadowRoot` property, and then query within that root.
-    ```javascript
-    // 1. Find the host element (custom element tag name, e.g., 'tool-details-panel')
-    const hostElement = document.querySelector('your-shadow-host-tag-name');
-
-    if (hostElement && hostElement.shadowRoot) {
-      const shadowRoot = hostElement.shadowRoot;
-
-      // 2. Query within the shadowRoot for target elements
-      const targetElementInShadow = shadowRoot.querySelector('#some-element-inside-shadow');
-      if (targetElementInShadow) {
-        // targetElementInShadow.click();
-        // return targetElementInShadow.textContent;
-      } else {
-        // return 'Element not found within shadowRoot';
-      }
-    } else {
-      // return 'Shadow host not found or no shadowRoot attached';
-    }
-    ```
-*   **Recursive Deep Query Helper (Conceptual):** For nested shadow DOMs or when the exact host is unknown, a recursive or iterative deep query function can be useful. This function would traverse the DOM, checking each element for a `shadowRoot` and searching within it.
-    ```javascript
-    function $deep(selector, rootNode = document) {
-      const stack = [rootNode];
-      while (stack.length) {
-        const currentNode = stack.shift();
-        if (currentNode.nodeType === Node.ELEMENT_NODE && currentNode.matches(selector)) {
-          return currentNode;
-        }
-        if (currentNode.shadowRoot) {
-          stack.push(currentNode.shadowRoot);
-        }
-        // Check children only if it's an Element or DocumentFragment (like a shadowRoot)
-        if (currentNode.nodeType === Node.ELEMENT_NODE || currentNode.nodeType === Node.DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT_NODE) {
-          if (currentNode.children) { // Ensure children property exists
-            stack.push(...currentNode.children);
-          }
-        }
-      }
-      return null;
-    }
-    // Usage: const someButton = $deep('button.some-class-in-shadow');
-    ```
-*   **Challenges with AppleScript `do JavaScript`:**
-    *   **Return Value Limitations:** Complex objects (like DOM elements) or very large strings (like extensive `outerHTML`) returned from `do JavaScript` can sometimes result in `missing value` or empty strings in AppleScript, making debugging difficult.
-    *   **Debugging:** Direct console logging from `do JavaScript` is not visible to the AppleScript environment, complicating troubleshooting of JavaScript execution within Safari.
-    *   **Reliability:** For highly dynamic UIs with extensive Shadow DOM, the AppleScript `do JavaScript` bridge may not always be reliable enough for complex, multi-step interactions, especially when precise timing or access to nuanced DOM states is required. Direct API/tool calls, if available, are often more robust for verification in such cases.
-*   **Discovering Shadow Host Tag Names:** If the specific tag name of a shadow host is unknown, one might attempt to list all elements that have a `shadowRoot`:
-    ```javascript
-    // JavaScript to be executed via AppleScript to list shadow host tag names
-    // (Note: Return value handling by AppleScript needs to be robust, e.g., JSON stringify)
-    // let hosts = [...document.querySelectorAll('*')]\
-    //             .filter(el => el.shadowRoot)\
-    //             .map(el => el.tagName);\
-    // return JSON.stringify(hosts);\
-    ```
-    However, successful execution and return of this data via AppleScript `do JavaScript` can be unreliable, as experienced in attempts to automate the MCP Inspector.
-
-These notes capture the iterative process and key takeaways from the Safari automation for the MCP Inspector. The successful methods are now enshrined in `mcp-inspector.mdc`, while this document provides the background and context.

-### Meta-Level Collaboration & Rule Evolution Notes
-
-*   **Rule Refinement for Readability (User Feedback):** Based on user feedback, the main operational rule file (`mcp-inspector.mdc`) was refactored to move lengthy scripts (like the Safari tab setup AppleScript) into an Appendix section (e.g., `[Setup Safari Tab for Inspector]`). This keeps the main flow of the rule concise and readable for both humans and models, while still providing the full implementation details in a structured way. The `safari.mdc` file is designated for the more verbose, evolutionary notes and debugging narratives.
-*   **Tool Usage Preferences (User Feedback):** User indicated a preference for using the `edit_file` tool for modifying rule files (like `.mdc` files) rather than `claude_code`. This allows the user to review the diff in their IDE before the change is effectively applied by the AI. This preference will be honored for future rule file modifications.

-
-*   **URL Consistency:** The MCP Inspector URL (`http://127.0.0.1:6274`) was found to be consistent between runs, simplifying Safari targeting.
-*   **"Connected" State vs. iTerm Logs:** A key finding was that the Safari Inspector UI can show "Connected" (and tools subsequently work) even if detailed `DEBUG`-level logs from the launched server process (`start.sh` -> `node dist/server.js`) do not appear in the iTerm console where `npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector` is running. The Inspector seems to show its own proxying/connection logs, but the full stdout/stderr of the child might not always be visible there. This means successful connection and tool usability are the primary indicators, and absence of detailed server logs in the iTerm console is not necessarily a showstopper for basic interaction, though it would affect deeper debugging of the server itself.

-
-*   **Clarification on `[WORKSPACE_PATH]` Resolution:** The placeholder `[WORKSPACE_PATH]` used in rules (e.g., for script paths like `[WORKSPACE_PATH]/start.sh`) must be dynamically replaced by the AI with the absolute path of the current project workspace. This path is typically available to the AI from its context (e.g., derived from `user_info.workspace_path` or a similar environment variable). It is crucial that the AI ensures the resolved path is correctly quoted if it's used in shell commands or script arguments, especially if the path might contain spaces or special characters. For instance, a path like `/Users/username/My Projects/project-name` should be passed as `'/Users/username/My Projects/project-name'` in a shell command.

-### Strategies for Robust Element Selection
-
-When automating UI interactions, the reliability of your scripts heavily depends on how you identify and select HTML elements. Here's a hierarchy of preferences and tips for making your selectors more robust:
-
-1.  **`data-testid` Attributes (Gold Standard):**
-    *   **Why:** These are custom attributes specifically added for testing and automation. They are decoupled from styling and functional implementation details, making them the most resilient to UI changes.
-    *   **Example (CSS):** `[data-testid='user-login-button']`
-    *   **Example (XPath):** `//*[@data-testid='user-login-button']`
-
-2.  **Unique `id` Attributes:**
-    *   **Why:** `id` attributes are *supposed* to be unique within a page. If developers adhere to this, they are very reliable.
-    *   **Example (CSS):** `#submit-form`
-    *   **Example (XPath):** `//*[@id='submit-form']`
-
-3.  **Stable `aria-label`, `aria-labelledby`, `role`, or other Accessibility Attributes:**
-    *   **Why:** Accessibility attributes are often more stable than class names used for styling, as they relate to the element's function and purpose.
-    *   **Example (CSS):** `button[aria-label='Open settings']`
-    *   **Example (XPath):** `//button[@aria-label='Open settings']`
-
-4.  **Stable Class Names (Used for Structure/Function, Not Just Styling):**
-    *   **Why:** Some class names indicate the structure or function of an element rather than just its appearance. These can be reasonably stable. Avoid classes that are purely presentational (e.g., `color-blue`, `margin-small`).
-    *   **Example (CSS):** `.user-profile-card .username` (Contextual selection)
-    *   **Example (XPath):** `//div[contains(@class, 'user-profile-card')]//span[contains(@class, 'username')]`
-
-5.  **Structural XPaths (Based on DOM hierarchy):**
-    *   **Why:** Relying on the element's position within the DOM (e.g., "the second `div` inside a `section` with a specific header"). These are more brittle than attribute-based selectors because any structural change can break them. Use sparingly and keep them as simple as possible.
-    *   **Example (XPath):** `//section[@id='main-content']/div[2]/p`
-
-6.  **Text-Based XPaths (Using visible text):**
-    *   **Why:** Selecting elements based on their visible text content (e.g., a button with the text "Submit"). Can be useful, but prone to breakage if the text changes (e.g., for localization or wording updates).
-    *   **Example (XPath):** `//button[text()='Submit']` or `//button[contains(text(), 'Submit')]`
-    *   **Tip for Robustness:** Use XPath's `normalize-space()` function to handle variations in whitespace (leading, trailing, multiple internal spaces).
-        *   `//button[normalize-space(text())='Submit']` (Matches " Submit ", "Submit", " Submit" etc.)
-        *   `//a[contains(normalize-space(.), 'Learn More')]` (Checks within any descendant text nodes)
-
-**General Tips for Selectors:**
-
-*   **Prefer CSS Selectors for Simplicity and Speed:** When applicable, CSS selectors are often more concise and can be faster than XPaths.
-*   **Use Browser Developer Tools:** Actively use the "Inspect Element" feature in your browser to test and refine your CSS selectors and XPaths. Most dev tools allow you to directly test them.
-*   **Avoid Generated IDs/Classes:** Be wary of IDs or class names that look auto-generated (e.g., `id="ext-gen1234"`), as these are likely to change between page loads or application versions.
-*   **Context is Key:** Instead of overly complex global selectors, try to select a stable parent element first, then find the target element within that parent's context. This often leads to simpler and more reliable selectors.

-### Debugging AppleScript `do JavaScript` Execution Flow
-
-Successfully executing JavaScript via AppleScript's `do JavaScript` command often involves navigating two potential layers of errors: AppleScript parsing errors and JavaScript runtime errors. Here's how to approach debugging:
-
-**1. Differentiating Error Types:**
-
-*   **AppleScript Compile-Time/Parsing Errors (e.g., `-2741`):**
-    *   **Symptom:** The AppleScript editor shows an error, or the script fails immediately when run, often with error messages like "Syntax Error," "Expected end of line but found...", or specific error codes like `-2741` (which typically means the command couldn't be parsed correctly, often due to malformed strings or incorrect quoting).
-    *   **Cause:** The AppleScript interpreter itself cannot understand the structure of your `do JavaScript "..."` command, usually due to incorrect quoting or escaping of characters *within the AppleScript string that defines the JavaScript code*.
-    *   **The JavaScript code itself hasn't even been sent to Safari yet.**
-
-*   **JavaScript Runtime Errors:**
-    *   **Symptom:** The AppleScript command runs without an immediate AppleScript error, but the desired action doesn't occur in Safari, or `do JavaScript` returns an error message from the JavaScript engine (e.g., "TypeError: null is not an object" or "SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier").
-    *   **Cause:** The JavaScript code was successfully passed to Safari, but the JavaScript engine encountered an error while trying to execute it (e.g., trying to access a property of a non-existent element, incorrect JS syntax, etc.).
-
-**2. Debugging AppleScript Syntax/Parsing Errors:**
-
-*   **Simplify the JavaScript String:** Start with the simplest possible JavaScript that should work, e.g.:
-    ```applescript
-    tell application "Safari"
-      do JavaScript "'test';" in front document
-    end tell
-    ```
-*   **Log the Constructed JavaScript String:** Before the `do JavaScript` line, use AppleScript's `log` command to print the exact JavaScript string you are about to send. This helps you visually inspect it for quoting issues.
-    ```applescript
-    set jsCommand to "document.getElementById(\"myButton\").click();"
-    log jsCommand
-    tell application "Safari"
-      do JavaScript jsCommand in front document
-    end tell
-    ```
-    Check the logged output carefully in Script Editor's "Messages" tab.
-*   **Build Complex Strings Incrementally:** If your JavaScript is complex, build it in parts using AppleScript variables. This can make it easier to manage quoting for each part.
-*   **Master Quoting:**
-    *   If AppleScript string is in double quotes (`"..."`): Escape internal JS double quotes as `\"`. JS single quotes usually don't need escaping.
-    *   Use `character id 39` for single quotes if constructing JS with many internal single quotes to avoid confusion: `set sQuote to character id 39`. `set jsCommand to "var name = " & sQuote & "Pete" & sQuote & ";"`
-
-**3. Debugging JavaScript Runtime Errors:**
-
-*   **Test in Safari's Web Inspector Console:** The most effective way to debug the JavaScript itself is to open Safari, navigate to the target page, open the Web Inspector (Develop > Show Web Inspector), and paste your JavaScript snippet directly into the Console. This provides immediate feedback, error messages, and allows for interactive debugging.
-*   **Use `try...catch` in Your JavaScript:** Wrap your JavaScript code in a `try...catch` block to capture and return error messages back to AppleScript. This can make it much easier to see what went wrong inside Safari.
-    ```applescript
-    set jsCommand to "try { document.getElementById('nonExistentElement').value = 'test'; return 'Success'; } catch(e) { return 'JS Error: ' + e.name + ': ' + e.message; }"
-    tell application "Safari"
-      set jsResult to do JavaScript jsCommand in front document
-      log jsResult
-    end tell
-    ```
-*   **Return Values for Debugging:** Have your JavaScript return intermediate values or status indicators to AppleScript to understand its state.
-    ```applescript
-    set jsCommand to "var el = document.getElementById('myField'); if (el) { return 'Element found!'; } else { return 'Element NOT found.'; }"
-    log (do JavaScript jsCommand in front document)
-    ```
-
-By systematically checking for AppleScript parsing issues first, then moving to debug the JavaScript logic within Safari's environment, you can effectively troubleshoot `do JavaScript` commands.

-
-### Advanced Asynchronous Handling: Polling for Conditions
-
-Web pages load and update content asynchronously. Relying on fixed `delay` commands in AppleScript after an action (like a click or page navigation) can be unreliable because the actual time needed for the UI to update can vary due to network speed, server load, or client-side processing.
-
-A more robust approach is to actively poll for a specific condition to be met (e.g., an element appearing, text changing, a certain JavaScript variable becoming true) before proceeding. This makes your scripts more resilient to timing variations.
-
-**How Polling Works:**
-
-1.  Define the JavaScript code that checks for your desired condition (this should return `true` or `false`).
-2.  In AppleScript, create a loop that:
-    *   Executes the JavaScript check.
-    *   If the condition is met, exit the loop.
-    *   If not, wait for a short interval (e.g., 0.5 seconds).
-    *   Include a counter or timeout mechanism to prevent the loop from running indefinitely if the condition is never met.
-
-**Example: Polling for 'Connected' Status in MCP Inspector**
-
-This AppleScript snippet demonstrates polling for the text "Connected" to appear on the page after clicking the connect button:
-
-```applescript
--- JavaScript to check if the page body contains the text "Connected"
-set jsCheckConnected to "document.body.innerText.includes('Connected');"
-
-set isNowConnected to false
-set attempts to 0
-set maxAttempts to 20 -- Set a reasonable limit, e.g., 20 attempts
-set pollInterval to 0.5 -- Wait 0.5 seconds between attempts
-
-log "Polling for 'Connected' status..."
-
-tell application "Safari"
-  tell front document
-    repeat while isNowConnected is false and attempts < maxAttempts
-      try
-        if (do JavaScript jsCheckConnected) is true then
-          set isNowConnected to true
-          log "Status changed to 'Connected' after " & (attempts + 1) & " attempts."
-        else
-          delay pollInterval
-        end if
-      on error errMsg number errNum
-        log "Error during JavaScript check (attempt " & (attempts + 1) & "): " & errMsg & " (Number: " & errNum & ")"
-        -- Decide if you want to stop on error or just log and continue
-        delay pollInterval -- Still delay even if JS itself errored, maybe it's a temporary issue
-      end try
-      set attempts to attempts + 1
-    end repeat
-  end tell
-end tell
-
-if isNowConnected then
-  log "Successfully confirmed 'Connected' status via polling."
-  -- Proceed with next actions that depend on being connected
-else
-  log "Failed to see 'Connected' status within " & (maxAttempts * pollInterval) & " seconds."
-  -- Handle the failure case (e.g., log error, stop script)
-end if
-```
-
-**Benefits of Polling:**
-
-*   **Increased Reliability:** Scripts wait only as long as necessary, adapting to real-time conditions rather than fixed, potentially too short or too long, delays.
-*   **Reduced Brittleness:** Less likely to fail due to unexpected slowdowns.
-*   **Clearer Intent:** The script explicitly states what condition it's waiting for.
-
-**Considerations:**
-
-*   **Timeout:** Always implement a maximum number of attempts or a total timeout to prevent infinite loops if the condition never occurs.
-*   **Poll Interval:** Choose a reasonable interval. Too short can be resource-intensive; too long can make the script feel sluggish.
-*   **Error Handling:** Include `try...on error` blocks within your loop to gracefully handle potential errors during the JavaScript execution (e.g., if the page is still transitioning and elements are not yet available).

+# Repository Guidelines
+
+## Start Here
+- Read `~/Projects/agent-scripts/{AGENTS.MD,TOOLS.MD}` before making changes (skip if missing).
+- This repo uses git submodules (`AXorcist/`, `Commander/`, `Tachikoma/`, `TauTUI/`); update them in their home repos first, then bump pointers here.
+
+## Project Structure & Modules
+- `Apps/CLI` contains the SwiftPM package for the command-line tool; commands live under `Apps/CLI/Sources`, and unit/integration tests under `Apps/CLI/Tests`.
+- `Apps/Mac`, `Apps/peekaboo`, and `Apps/PeekabooInspector` host the macOS app and related tooling; open `Apps/Peekaboo.xcworkspace` for Xcode work.
+- Shared logic sits in `Core/PeekabooCore` (automation, agent runtime, visualizer). Keep new utilities there rather than duplicating in apps.
+- Git submodules provide foundational pieces: `AXorcist/` (AX automation), `Commander/` (CLI parsing), `Tachikoma/` (AI providers/MCP), and `TauTUI/`. Update them upstream first, then bump the pointers here.
+- Documentation lives in `docs/`; assets and marketing material are in `assets/`.
+
+## Build, Test, and Development Commands
+- Current local baseline is macOS 26.1 on arm64. If you’re on an older SDK/OS, expect menubar/accessibility flakiness; re-run with the 26 SDK before chasing Peekaboo regressions.
+- Run tools directly (runner removed). Use pnpm (Corepack-enabled).
+- Build the CLI: `pnpm run build:cli` (debug) or `pnpm run build:swift:all` (universal release). For arm64-only: `pnpm run build:swift`.
+- Rapid rebuilds while editing Swift: `pnpm run poltergeist:haunt` → check with `pnpm run poltergeist:status`, stop via `pnpm run poltergeist:rest`.
+- Validate before handoff: `pnpm run lint` (SwiftLint), `pnpm run format` (SwiftFormat check/fix), then `pnpm run test:safe`. Full automation/UI tests: `pnpm run test:automation` or `pnpm run test:all`.
+- Tachikoma live provider checks: `pnpm run tachikoma:test:integration`.
+- You may run `peekaboo` CLI commands locally for repros/debugging; be mindful they capture the host desktop (screen recording/accessibility permissions required).
+
+## Coding Style & Naming Conventions
+- Swift 6.2, 4-space indent, 120-column wrap; explicit `self` is required (SwiftFormat enforces). Run `pnpm run format` before committing.
+- SwiftLint config lives in `.swiftlint.yml`; keep new code typed (avoid `Any`), prefer small scoped extensions over large files.
+- Follow existing module boundaries: automation APIs in `PeekabooAutomation`, agent glue in `PeekabooAgentRuntime`, UI feedback in `PeekabooVisualizer`.
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+- Add regression tests alongside fixes in `Apps/CLI/Tests` (XCTest naming: `ThingTests`). Use `PEEKABOO_INCLUDE_AUTOMATION_TESTS=true` env only when automation permissions are available.
+- For local end-to-end runs, ensure macOS Screen Recording and Accessibility are granted (`peekaboo permissions status|grant`).
+
+## Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
+- Conventional Commits (`feat|fix|chore|docs|test|refactor|build|ci|style|perf`); scope optional: `feat(cli): add capture retry`.
+- Use `./scripts/committer "type(scope): summary" <paths…>` to stage and create commits; avoid raw `git add`.
+- Batch git network ops in groups: commit related repo changes first, then push/pull repos together so submodule gitlinks stay coherent.
+- PRs should summarize intent, list test commands executed, mention doc updates, and include screenshots or terminal snippets when behavior changes.
+- Never release or publish without an explicit release command.
+- Peekaboo releases: follow `$release-peekaboo`; current Mac + existing 1Password credentials first. App Store Connect changes last resort, only after same-item `notarytool history` and non-S3 `submit` both fail.
+- Credentialed release wrappers: `bash -c`, never login shells; profile exports can override ASC IDs and mix credentials.
+- Published CLI proof: run `npm exec` from `/tmp`; repo cwd may shadow the downloaded package with a local binary.
+- During PR triage, keep moving autonomously: fix defects, add obvious scoped features, and rewrite or land what makes sense.
+- Before landing every PR, run autoreview until no actionable findings remain and fix or rerun CI until green.
+
+## Security & Configuration Tips
+- Secrets and provider tokens live under `~/.peekaboo` (managed by Tachikoma); never commit credentials or sample keys.
+- Respect permissions flows documented in `docs/permissions.md`; avoid editing derived artifacts—regenerate via the provided scripts instead.

+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to Peekaboo CLI will be documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
+and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
+
+## [3.5.3] - 2026-06-13
+
+### Fixed
+- Public CLI, agent, MCP, and API guidance now treats runtime element IDs as opaque strings to copy exactly instead of implying role-specific ID shapes. Thanks @coygeek for #194.
+- JSON-only `peekaboo see` runs without `--path` now keep required screenshots in snapshot storage instead of leaving files on Desktop or exposing their temporary paths. Thanks @coygeek for #196.
+- Background element/query/coordinate clicks now pin actions to the requested process and exact window, reject mismatched window/PID selectors and unverifiable snapshots, invalidate implicit latest snapshots without deleting history, and no longer require Event Synthesizing when Accessibility completes the click.
+- App launch, open, and inventory commands now use the selected runtime host, fixing sandboxed LaunchServices failures; launch/open preserve `--no-focus` and caller-relative app paths, relaunch preflights and keeps quit/wait/launch in one daemon-held transaction, build-scoped fallback daemons remain reusable and controllable across native/Rosetta execution and executable upgrades, incompatible legacy hosts no longer force sandboxed local fallback, and inventory ignores unrelated input overrides.
+- Agent, MCP, script, CLI, and bridge mutations now advance implicit-snapshot watermarks at host-confirmed completion or observation boundaries, keep durable pending barriers across client timeouts/disconnects without hiding the acting command's own snapshot, carry remote script observation certificates, recover safely from PID reuse, ignore unavailable alternate hosts after protecting the selected/local stores, and preserve explicit snapshot history.
+
+## [3.5.2] - 2026-06-13
+
+### Changed
+- `peekaboo type` and the MCP `type` tool now default to zero-delay linear typing; supplying `--wpm`/`wpm` still opts into human cadence.
+
+### Fixed
+- Synchronized Tachikoma's OpenAI `gpt-5-chat-latest` catalog metadata so configured models apply the correct GPT-5 parameter filtering.
+
+## [3.5.1] - 2026-06-12
+
+### Fixed
+- `peekaboo see` now returns at its configured wall-clock deadline when suspended capture or detection work ignores task cancellation, while preserving explicit command cancellation.
+
+## [3.5.0] - 2026-06-12
+
+### Added
+- `peekaboo agent` now supports explicit Claude Fable 5 (`claude-fable-5`) selection with 1M context and 128K max output while keeping Anthropic defaults on Opus 4.8 for zero-retention compatibility.
+
+### Changed
+- Agent runs now honor the saved `agent.temperature` and `agent.maxTokens` values shared by the CLI and macOS Settings UI, clamp them to each provider's capabilities, infer Fable limits through compatible providers, and omit unsupported sampling parameters for GPT-5 and current Anthropic reasoning models.
+- Project, issue, build, release, and app About links now use the canonical `openclaw/Peekaboo` repository.
+
+### Fixed
+- Bridge hosts now use atomic lease-backed socket ownership and bounded nonblocking transport, keep Peekaboo.app and the reusable daemon on distinct paths while preserving the healthy app's TCC-backed fallback, preserve lifecycle settings while migrating legacy daemons, prevent MCP from hosting a bridge listener, safely recover stale sockets, and release abandoned client connections instead of wedging. Thanks @Artifact-LV for #184.
+- Legacy screen and area capture now fails with a permission or native capture error instead of returning wallpaper-only/redacted pixels from background sessions. Thanks @VishalJ99 for #185.
+
+## [3.4.1] - 2026-06-10
+
+### Fixed
+- `peekaboo agent` now resolves saved custom providers, xAI/Grok, Gemini 3.5 Flash, Claude Opus 4.8, and GPT-5.5 model selections before falling back to unavailable built-in defaults. Thanks @udiedrichsen for #182.
+
+## [3.4.0] - 2026-06-07
+
+## [3.3.0] - 2026-06-01
+
+## [3.2.3] - 2026-05-24
+
+## [3.2.2] - 2026-05-22
+
+### Fixed
+- `peekaboo agent` now accepts OpenRouter model IDs and can use `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` from env or credentials. Thanks @delort for #155.
+
+## [3.2.1] - 2026-05-18
+
+### Fixed
+- `peekaboo click --coords` now treats coordinates as target-window-relative when app/window target flags are supplied, reports resolved target metadata, and requires `--global-coords` for targeted global clicks.
+- `peekaboo-mcp` now shuts down cleanly during restart backoff and repairs executable permissions without shelling out through an install path.
+- `pnpm run peekaboo:dev` no longer depends on a hardcoded local checkout path.
+- `peekaboo agent` now tells models to use the current tool schema instead of stale tool names and arguments. Thanks @vyctorbrzezowski for #139.
+- AX element detection now honors traversal budgets and reports truncation when depth, count, or per-node child limits are reached. Thanks @vyctorbrzezowski for #140.
+- `peekaboo agent` and MCP clients now have an `inspect_ui` tool for AX-only UI text/control inspection without capturing screenshots. Thanks @vyctorbrzezowski for #141.
+- Window-mode capture now falls back to desktop-independent ScreenCaptureKit filters when multi-display setups cannot map a window to an enumerated display. Thanks @lonexreb for #147.
+- `peekaboo agent` guidance now routes AX-only observation through `inspect_ui` consistently while keeping screenshot-backed checks on `see`. Thanks @vyctorbrzezowski for #144.
+- Custom provider docs, CLI help, and macOS settings now prefer `${VAR}` API key references and shell examples that preserve them literally. Thanks @scotthuang for #142.
+- `peekaboo agent` now refreshes desktop context before each model turn and wires opt-in action verification through the configured capture strategy. Thanks @lonexreb for #148.
+- AX traversal budgets now have wider defaults plus CLI, MCP, and environment overrides for complex app trees. Thanks @widdowson for #150 and #151.
+- `peekaboo agent` now keeps OAuth access tokens on Bearer auth paths instead of misclassifying them as API keys, including config-dir overrides and audio transcription. Thanks @Crux0453 for #154.
+
+## [3.2.0] - 2026-05-15
+
+### Fixed
+- Release automation now verifies CLI, npm, macOS app, checksum, appcast, and uploaded GitHub assets before publish.
+- `peekaboo type --json` now separates requested text from executed key actions, making escaped special keys such as `\n` visible to agents without losing backwards-compatible `typedText`.
+- `peekaboo permissions status --all-sources` now compares Bridge and local TCC permission state side by side, so daemon grants are no longer confused with CLI grants.
+- `peekaboo mcp serve --transport ...` now rejects invalid transport names instead of silently starting stdio mode.
+- `peekaboo paste --app ...` now fails before mutating the clipboard when the requested app cannot be found.
+- `peekaboo agent` no longer sends stale Anthropic extended-thinking options to Claude Opus 4.7 and now exits with failure when agent execution fails.
+- Command timeout JSON now reports the intended timeout error instead of occasionally surfacing cancellation as an unknown error.
+- Refreshed CLI docs and quickstart examples to use current flags such as `image --path`, `click --coords`, `type --return`, `press --count`, and `scroll --amount`.
+
+### Performance
+- Debug CLI startup no longer spawns `git config` on every launch when build-staleness checking is disabled, cutting startup-heavy command latency by more than 30% in local testing.
+
+## [3.1.2] - 2026-05-11
+
+### Fixed
+- Release automation now writes artifacts under `build/release` so clean release builds no longer embed `-dirty` in CLI version metadata.
+
+## [3.1.1] - 2026-05-11
+
+### Added
+- `peekaboo image --path -` now writes a single captured image to stdout for shell pipelines.
+- The npm package now allows Intel Macs when shipping the universal CLI binary.
+
+### Fixed
+- Agent tool schemas now preserve MCP `anyOf`/`oneOf` parameters so Gemini no longer rejects `peekaboo agent` requests with orphan `required` entries.
+- `peekaboo see --capture-engine cg` now keeps frontmost/window captures on the CoreGraphics path instead of falling through to `SCScreenshotManager`.
+
+## [3.1.0] - 2026-05-10
+
+### Added
+- `peekaboo agent --model` now understands GPT-5.5 and Claude Opus 4.7 identifiers, defaults to `gpt-5.5`, and rejects old GPT/Claude model families.
+- Automation-oriented CLI commands now auto-start a warm Peekaboo daemon, reuse it across bursty invocations, and let it exit after an idle timeout.
+- Bridge protocol 1.5 adds a daemon-side desktop observation operation so screenshot and `see` flows can execute fully in the warm daemon while returning compact metadata.
+
+### Fixed
+- MCP stdio servers now default to the local runtime instead of probing an existing Bridge host, avoiding recursive capture timeouts for `see` and `image` tool calls.
+- MCP `image` now returns an `isError: true` tool result when Screen Recording permission is missing instead of surfacing an internal server error.
+- MCP `analyze` now honors configured AI providers and per-call `provider_config` models instead of hardcoding an OpenAI model.
+- Peekaboo.app now signs with the AppleEvents automation entitlement so macOS can prompt for Automation permission.
+- The CLI bundle metadata and bundled Homebrew formula now advertise the macOS 15 minimum that the SwiftPM package already requires.
+- `peekaboo see --annotate` now aligns labels using captured window bounds instead of guessing from the first detected element.
+- Window capture on macOS 26 now resolves native Retina scale from `NSScreen.backingScaleFactor` before falling back to ScreenCaptureKit display ratios.
+- `peekaboo image --app ... --window-title/--window-index` now captures the resolved window by stable window ID, avoiding mismatches between listed window indexes and ScreenCaptureKit window ordering.
+- `peekaboo image --app ...` now prefers titled app windows over untitled helper windows, avoiding blank Chrome captures.
+- `peekaboo image --capture-engine` is now accepted by Commander-based live parsing.
+- Concurrent ScreenCaptureKit screenshot requests now queue through an in-process and cross-process capture gate instead of racing into continuation leaks or transient TCC-denied failures.
+- Concurrent `peekaboo see` calls now queue the local screenshot/detection pipeline across processes, avoiding ReplayKit/ScreenCaptureKit continuation hangs under parallel usage.
+- Natural-language automation examples now use `peekaboo agent "..."`.
+
+### Performance
+- `peekaboo see`, `image`, UI interaction, window, menu, dock, dialog, and app commands now prefer the warm on-demand daemon by default, avoiding repeated service startup cost across command bursts.
+- `peekaboo tools`, `peekaboo list apps`, `peekaboo app list`, and purely local metadata commands still avoid daemon startup. Pass `--bridge-socket` to target a Bridge host explicitly where supported.
+- Daemon-backed screenshot and `see` calls now write screenshot artifacts in the daemon and avoid sending image bytes through Bridge JSON, preventing large-payload timeouts and making warm calls substantially faster.
+- Capture engine `auto` now tries the CoreGraphics path before ScreenCaptureKit, which makes repeated screenshot calls faster locally and avoids observed ScreenCaptureKit continuation hangs; explicit `--capture-engine modern` still forces ScreenCaptureKit.
+- `peekaboo image --app` avoids redundant application/window-count lookups during screenshot setup and skips auto-focus work when the target app is already frontmost.
+- `peekaboo image --app` now uses a CoreGraphics-only window selection fast path before falling back to full AX-enriched window enumeration, reducing warm Playground screenshot capture from about 350ms to 290ms.
+- `peekaboo image` skips a redundant CLI-side screen-recording preflight and relies on the capture service's permission check, shaving about 8ms from warm one-shot app screenshots.
+- `peekaboo see --app` avoids re-focusing the target window when Accessibility already reports the captured window as focused.
+- `peekaboo see` avoids recursive AX child-text lookups for elements whose labels cannot use them, reducing Playground element detection from about 201ms to 134ms in local testing.
+- `peekaboo see` batches per-element Accessibility descriptor reads and skips avoidable action/editability probes, reducing local Playground element detection from about 205ms to 176ms.
+- `peekaboo see` limits expensive AX action and keyboard-shortcut probes to roles that can use them, reducing Playground element detection from about 286ms to roughly 180-190ms in local testing.
+- `peekaboo see` skips a redundant CLI-side screen-recording preflight and relies on the capture service's permission check, shaving a fixed TCC probe from screenshot-plus-AX runs.
+- `peekaboo see` now keeps AX traversal scoped to the captured window and skips web-content focus probing once a rich native AX tree is already visible, avoiding sibling-window elements and cutting native Playground detection from about 220ms to 130ms.

+## [2.0.2] - 2025-07-03
+
+### Fixed
+- Actually fixed compatibility with macOS Sequoia 26 by ensuring LC_UUID load command is generated during linking
+- The v2.0.1 fix was incomplete - the binary was still missing LC_UUID despite the strip command change
+- Added `-Xlinker -random_uuid` to Package.swift to ensure UUID generation
+- Verified both x86_64 and arm64 architectures now contain proper LC_UUID load commands
+
+## [2.0.1] - 2025-07-03
+
+### Fixed
+- Fixed compatibility with macOS Sequoia 26 (pre-release) by preserving LC_UUID load command during binary stripping
+- The strip command now uses the `-u` flag to ensure the LC_UUID load command is retained, which is required by the dynamic linker (dyld) on macOS 26
+
+### Technical Details
+- Modified build script to use `strip -Sxu` instead of `strip -Sx` to preserve the LC_UUID load command
+- This ensures the binary includes the necessary UUID for debugging, crash reporting, and symbol resolution on newer macOS versions
+
+## [2.0.0] - 2025-07-03
+
+### Added
+- **Standalone Swift CLI** - Complete rewrite in Swift for better performance and native macOS integration
+- **MCP Server** - Model Context Protocol support for AI assistant integration
+- **Multiple Capture Modes**:
+  - Window capture (single or all windows)
+  - Screen capture (main or specific display)
+  - Frontmost window capture
+  - Multi-window capture from multiple apps
+- **AI Vision Analysis** - Analyze screenshots with OpenAI or Ollama directly from Swift CLI
+- **Configuration File Support** - JSONC format configuration at `~/.config/peekaboo/config.json` with:
+  - Environment variable expansion (`${HOME}`, `${OPENAI_API_KEY}`)
+  - Comments support for better documentation
+  - Hierarchical settings for AI providers, defaults, and logging
+- **Config Command** - New `peekaboo config` subcommand to manage configuration:
+  - `config init` - Create default configuration file
+  - `config show` - Display current configuration
+  - `config edit` - Open configuration in default editor
+  - `config validate` - Validate configuration syntax
+- **Permissions Command** - New `peekaboo list permissions` to check system permissions
+- **PID Targeting** - Target applications by process ID with `PID:12345` syntax
+- **Homebrew Distribution** - Install via `brew install steipete/tap/peekaboo` for easy installation and updates
+- **Comprehensive Test Suite** - 331 tests with 100% pass rate covering all major components
+- **DocC Documentation** - Comprehensive API documentation for Swift codebase
+
+### Changed
+- Complete architecture redesign separating CLI and MCP server
+- Improved performance with native Swift implementation
+- Better error handling and permission management
+- More intuitive command-line interface following Unix conventions
+- Enhanced permission visibility with clear indicators when permissions are missing
+- Unified AI provider interface for consistent API across OpenAI and Ollama
+- Logger's `setJsonOutputMode` and `clearDebugLogs` methods are now synchronous for better reliability
+
+### Fixed
+- Configuration precedence (CLI args > env vars > config file > defaults)
+- SwiftLint violations across the codebase
+- ImageSaver crash when paths contain invalid characters
+- Logger race conditions in test environment
+- PermissionErrorDetector now handles all relevant error domains
+- Test isolation issues preventing interference between tests
+- Various edge cases in error handling and file operations
+
+### Removed
+- Node.js CLI (replaced with Swift implementation)
+- Legacy screenshot methods
+
+## [1.1.0] - 2024-12-20
+
+### Added
+- Initial TypeScript implementation
+- Basic screenshot capabilities
+- Simple MCP integration
+
+### Changed
+- Various bug fixes and improvements
+
+## [1.0.0] - 2024-12-19
+
+### Added
+- Initial release
+- Basic screenshot functionality
