  Fast headless browser for QA testing and site dogfooding. Navigate any URL, interact with
  elements, verify page state, diff before/after actions, take annotated screenshots, check
  responsive layouts, test forms and uploads, handle dialogs, and assert element states.
  ~100ms per command. Use when you need to test a feature, verify a deployment, dogfood a
  user flow, or file a bug with evidence. Use when asked to "open in browser", "test the
  site", "take a screenshot", or "dogfood this". (gstack)
triggers:
  - browse a page
  - headless browser
  - take page screenshot

## Plan Mode Safe Operations

In plan mode, allowed because they inform the plan: `$B`, `$D`, `codex exec`/`codex review`, writes to `~/.gstack/`, writes to the plan file, and `open` for generated artifacts.

## Skill Invocation During Plan Mode

If the user invokes a skill in plan mode, the skill takes precedence over generic plan mode behavior. **Treat the skill file as executable instructions, not reference.** Follow it step by step starting from Step 0; the first AskUserQuestion is the workflow entering plan mode, not a violation of it. AskUserQuestion satisfies plan mode's end-of-turn requirement. At a STOP point, stop immediately. Do not continue the workflow or call ExitPlanMode there. Commands marked "PLAN MODE EXCEPTION — ALWAYS RUN" execute. Call ExitPlanMode only after the skill workflow completes, or if the user tells you to cancel the skill or leave plan mode.

If `PROACTIVE` is `"false"`, do not auto-invoke or proactively suggest skills. If a skill seems useful, ask: "I think /skillname might help here — want me to run it?"

If `SKILL_PREFIX` is `"true"`, suggest/invoke `/gstack-*` names. Disk paths stay `~/.claude/skills/gstack/[skill-name]/SKILL.md`.

If output shows `UPGRADE_AVAILABLE <old> <new>`: read `~/.claude/skills/gstack/gstack-upgrade/SKILL.md` and follow the "Inline upgrade flow" (auto-upgrade if configured, otherwise AskUserQuestion with 4 options, write snooze state if declined).

If output shows `JUST_UPGRADED <from> <to>`: print "Running gstack v{to} (just updated!)". If `SPAWNED_SESSION` is true, skip feature discovery.

Feature discovery, max one prompt per session:
- Missing `~/.claude/skills/gstack/.feature-prompted-continuous-checkpoint`: AskUserQuestion for Continuous checkpoint auto-commits. If accepted, run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set checkpoint_mode continuous`. Always touch marker.
- Missing `~/.claude/skills/gstack/.feature-prompted-model-overlay`: inform "Model overlays are active. MODEL_OVERLAY shows the patch." Always touch marker.

After upgrade prompts, continue workflow.

If `WRITING_STYLE_PENDING` is `yes`: ask once about writing style:

> v1 prompts are simpler: first-use jargon glosses, outcome-framed questions, shorter prose. Keep default or restore terse?

Options:
- A) Keep the new default (recommended — good writing helps everyone)
- B) Restore V0 prose — set `explain_level: terse`

If A: leave `explain_level` unset (defaults to `default`).
If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set explain_level terse`.

Always run (regardless of choice):
```bash
rm -f ~/.gstack/.writing-style-prompt-pending
touch ~/.gstack/.writing-style-prompted
```

Skip if `WRITING_STYLE_PENDING` is `no`.

If `LAKE_INTRO` is `no`: say "gstack follows the **Boil the Lake** principle — do the complete thing when AI makes marginal cost near-zero. Read more: https://garryslist.org/posts/boil-the-ocean" Offer to open:

```bash
open https://garryslist.org/posts/boil-the-ocean
touch ~/.gstack/.completeness-intro-seen
```

Only run `open` if yes. Always run `touch`.

If `TEL_PROMPTED` is `no` AND `LAKE_INTRO` is `yes`: ask telemetry once via AskUserQuestion:

> Help gstack get better. Share usage data only: skill, duration, crashes, stable device ID. No code, file paths, or repo names.

Options:
- A) Help gstack get better! (recommended)
- B) No thanks

If A: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set telemetry community`

If B: ask follow-up:

> Anonymous mode sends only aggregate usage, no unique ID.

Options:
- A) Sure, anonymous is fine
- B) No thanks, fully off

If B→A: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set telemetry anonymous`
If B→B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set telemetry off`

Always run:
```bash
touch ~/.gstack/.telemetry-prompted
```

Skip if `TEL_PROMPTED` is `yes`.

If `PROACTIVE_PROMPTED` is `no` AND `TEL_PROMPTED` is `yes`: ask once:

> Let gstack proactively suggest skills, like /qa for "does this work?" or /investigate for bugs?

Options:
- A) Keep it on (recommended)
- B) Turn it off — I'll type /commands myself

If A: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set proactive true`
If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set proactive false`

Always run:
```bash
touch ~/.gstack/.proactive-prompted
```

Skip if `PROACTIVE_PROMPTED` is `yes`.

If `HAS_ROUTING` is `no` AND `ROUTING_DECLINED` is `false` AND `PROACTIVE_PROMPTED` is `yes`:
Check if a CLAUDE.md file exists in the project root. If it does not exist, create it.

Use AskUserQuestion:

> gstack works best when your project's CLAUDE.md includes skill routing rules.

Options:
- A) Add routing rules to CLAUDE.md (recommended)
- B) No thanks, I'll invoke skills manually

If A: Append this section to the end of CLAUDE.md:

```markdown

## Skill routing

When the user's request matches an available skill, invoke it via the Skill tool. When in doubt, invoke the skill.

Key routing rules:
- Product ideas/brainstorming → invoke /office-hours
- Strategy/scope → invoke /plan-ceo-review
- Architecture → invoke /plan-eng-review
- Design system/plan review → invoke /design-consultation or /plan-design-review
- Full review pipeline → invoke /autoplan
- Bugs/errors → invoke /investigate
- QA/testing site behavior → invoke /qa or /qa-only
- Code review/diff check → invoke /review
- Visual polish → invoke /design-review
- Ship/deploy/PR → invoke /ship or /land-and-deploy
- Save progress → invoke /context-save
- Resume context → invoke /context-restore
```

Then commit the change: `git add CLAUDE.md && git commit -m "chore: add gstack skill routing rules to CLAUDE.md"`

If B: run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config set routing_declined true` and say they can re-enable with `gstack-config set routing_declined false`.

This only happens once per project. Skip if `HAS_ROUTING` is `yes` or `ROUTING_DECLINED` is `true`.

If `VENDORED_GSTACK` is `yes`, warn once via AskUserQuestion unless `~/.gstack/.vendoring-warned-$SLUG` exists:

> This project has gstack vendored in `.claude/skills/gstack/`. Vendoring is deprecated.
> Migrate to team mode?

Options:
- A) Yes, migrate to team mode now
- B) No, I'll handle it myself

If A:
1. Run `git rm -r .claude/skills/gstack/`
2. Run `echo '.claude/skills/gstack/' >> .gitignore`
3. Run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-team-init required` (or `optional`)
4. Run `git add .claude/ .gitignore CLAUDE.md && git commit -m "chore: migrate gstack from vendored to team mode"`
5. Tell the user: "Done. Each developer now runs: `cd ~/.claude/skills/gstack && ./setup --team`"

If B: say "OK, you're on your own to keep the vendored copy up to date."

Always run (regardless of choice):
```bash
eval "$(~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-slug 2>/dev/null)" 2>/dev/null || true
touch ~/.gstack/.vendoring-warned-${SLUG:-unknown}
```

If marker exists, skip.

If `SPAWNED_SESSION` is `"true"`, you are running inside a session spawned by an
AI orchestrator (e.g., OpenClaw). In spawned sessions:
- Do NOT use AskUserQuestion for interactive prompts. Auto-choose the recommended option.
- Do NOT run upgrade checks, telemetry prompts, routing injection, or lake intro.
- Focus on completing the task and reporting results via prose output.
- End with a completion report: what shipped, decisions made, anything uncertain.

## GBrain Sync (skill start)

```bash
_GSTACK_HOME="${GSTACK_HOME:-$HOME/.gstack}"
_BRAIN_REMOTE_FILE="$HOME/.gstack-brain-remote.txt"
_BRAIN_SYNC_BIN="~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-brain-sync"
_BRAIN_CONFIG_BIN="~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-config"

_BRAIN_SYNC_MODE=$("$_BRAIN_CONFIG_BIN" get gbrain_sync_mode 2>/dev/null || echo off)

if [ -f "$_BRAIN_REMOTE_FILE" ] && [ ! -d "$_GSTACK_HOME/.git" ] && [ "$_BRAIN_SYNC_MODE" = "off" ]; then
  _BRAIN_NEW_URL=$(head -1 "$_BRAIN_REMOTE_FILE" 2>/dev/null | tr -d '[:space:]')
  if [ -n "$_BRAIN_NEW_URL" ]; then
    echo "BRAIN_SYNC: brain repo detected: $_BRAIN_NEW_URL"
    echo "BRAIN_SYNC: run 'gstack-brain-restore' to pull your cross-machine memory (or 'gstack-config set gbrain_sync_mode off' to dismiss forever)"
  fi
fi

if [ -d "$_GSTACK_HOME/.git" ] && [ "$_BRAIN_SYNC_MODE" != "off" ]; then
  _BRAIN_LAST_PULL_FILE="$_GSTACK_HOME/.brain-last-pull"
  _BRAIN_NOW=$(date +%s)
  _BRAIN_DO_PULL=1
  if [ -f "$_BRAIN_LAST_PULL_FILE" ]; then
    _BRAIN_LAST=$(cat "$_BRAIN_LAST_PULL_FILE" 2>/dev/null || echo 0)
    _BRAIN_AGE=$(( _BRAIN_NOW - _BRAIN_LAST ))
    [ "$_BRAIN_AGE" -lt 86400 ] && _BRAIN_DO_PULL=0
  fi
  if [ "$_BRAIN_DO_PULL" = "1" ]; then
    ( cd "$_GSTACK_HOME" && git fetch origin >/dev/null 2>&1 && git merge --ff-only "origin/$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)" >/dev/null 2>&1 ) || true
    echo "$_BRAIN_NOW" > "$_BRAIN_LAST_PULL_FILE"
  fi
  "$_BRAIN_SYNC_BIN" --once 2>/dev/null || true
fi

if [ -d "$_GSTACK_HOME/.git" ] && [ "$_BRAIN_SYNC_MODE" != "off" ]; then
  _BRAIN_QUEUE_DEPTH=0
  [ -f "$_GSTACK_HOME/.brain-queue.jsonl" ] && _BRAIN_QUEUE_DEPTH=$(wc -l < "$_GSTACK_HOME/.brain-queue.jsonl" | tr -d ' ')
  _BRAIN_LAST_PUSH="never"
  [ -f "$_GSTACK_HOME/.brain-last-push" ] && _BRAIN_LAST_PUSH=$(cat "$_GSTACK_HOME/.brain-last-push" 2>/dev/null || echo never)
  echo "BRAIN_SYNC: mode=$_BRAIN_SYNC_MODE | last_push=$_BRAIN_LAST_PUSH | queue=$_BRAIN_QUEUE_DEPTH"
else
  echo "BRAIN_SYNC: off"
fi
```



Privacy stop-gate: if output shows `BRAIN_SYNC: off`, `gbrain_sync_mode_prompted` is `false`, and gbrain is on PATH or `gbrain doctor --fast --json` works, ask once:

> gstack can publish your session memory to a private GitHub repo that GBrain indexes across machines. How much should sync?

Options:
- A) Everything allowlisted (recommended)
- B) Only artifacts
- C) Decline, keep everything local

After answer:

```bash
# Chosen mode: full | artifacts-only | off
"$_BRAIN_CONFIG_BIN" set gbrain_sync_mode <choice>
"$_BRAIN_CONFIG_BIN" set gbrain_sync_mode_prompted true
```

If A/B and `~/.gstack/.git` is missing, ask whether to run `gstack-brain-init`. Do not block the skill.

At skill END before telemetry:

```bash
"~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-brain-sync" --discover-new 2>/dev/null || true
"~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-brain-sync" --once 2>/dev/null || true
```


## Model-Specific Behavioral Patch (claude)

The following nudges are tuned for the claude model family. They are
**subordinate** to skill workflow, STOP points, AskUserQuestion gates, plan-mode
safety, and /ship review gates. If a nudge below conflicts with skill instructions,
the skill wins. Treat these as preferences, not rules.

**Todo-list discipline.** When working through a multi-step plan, mark each task
complete individually as you finish it. Do not batch-complete at the end. If a task
turns out to be unnecessary, mark it skipped with a one-line reason.

**Think before heavy actions.** For complex operations (refactors, migrations,
non-trivial new features), briefly state your approach before executing. This lets
the user course-correct cheaply instead of mid-flight.

**Dedicated tools over Bash.** Prefer Read, Edit, Write, Glob, Grep over shell
equivalents (cat, sed, find, grep). The dedicated tools are cheaper and clearer.

## Voice

Direct, concrete, builder-to-builder. Name the file, function, command, and user-visible impact. No filler.

No em dashes. No AI vocabulary: delve, crucial, robust, comprehensive, nuanced, multifaceted. Never corporate or academic. Short paragraphs. End with what to do.

The user has context you do not. Cross-model agreement is a recommendation, not a decision. The user decides.

## Completion Status Protocol

When completing a skill workflow, report status using one of:
- **DONE** — completed with evidence.
- **DONE_WITH_CONCERNS** — completed, but list concerns.
- **BLOCKED** — cannot proceed; state blocker and what was tried.
- **NEEDS_CONTEXT** — missing info; state exactly what is needed.

Escalate after 3 failed attempts, uncertain security-sensitive changes, or scope you cannot verify. Format: `STATUS`, `REASON`, `ATTEMPTED`, `RECOMMENDATION`.

## Operational Self-Improvement

Before completing, if you discovered a durable project quirk or command fix that would save 5+ minutes next time, log it:

```bash
~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-learnings-log '{"skill":"SKILL_NAME","type":"operational","key":"SHORT_KEY","insight":"DESCRIPTION","confidence":N,"source":"observed"}'
```

Do not log obvious facts or one-time transient errors.

## Telemetry (run last)

After workflow completion, log telemetry. Use skill `name:` from frontmatter. OUTCOME is success/error/abort/unknown.

**PLAN MODE EXCEPTION — ALWAYS RUN:** This command writes telemetry to
`~/.gstack/analytics/`, matching preamble analytics writes.

Run this bash:

```bash
_TEL_END=$(date +%s)
_TEL_DUR=$(( _TEL_END - _TEL_START ))
rm -f ~/.gstack/analytics/.pending-"$_SESSION_ID" 2>/dev/null || true
# Session timeline: record skill completion (local-only, never sent anywhere)
~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-timeline-log '{"skill":"SKILL_NAME","event":"completed","branch":"'$(git branch --show-current 2>/dev/null || echo unknown)'","outcome":"OUTCOME","duration_s":"'"$_TEL_DUR"'","session":"'"$_SESSION_ID"'"}' 2>/dev/null || true
# Local analytics (gated on telemetry setting)
if [ "$_TEL" != "off" ]; then
echo '{"skill":"SKILL_NAME","duration_s":"'"$_TEL_DUR"'","outcome":"OUTCOME","browse":"USED_BROWSE","session":"'"$_SESSION_ID"'","ts":"'$(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)'"}' >> ~/.gstack/analytics/skill-usage.jsonl 2>/dev/null || true
fi
# Remote telemetry (opt-in, requires binary)
if [ "$_TEL" != "off" ] && [ -x ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-telemetry-log ]; then
  ~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-telemetry-log \
    --skill "SKILL_NAME" --duration "$_TEL_DUR" --outcome "OUTCOME" \
    --used-browse "USED_BROWSE" --session-id "$_SESSION_ID" 2>/dev/null &
fi
```

Replace `SKILL_NAME`, `OUTCOME`, and `USED_BROWSE` before running.

## Plan Status Footer

In plan mode before ExitPlanMode: if the plan file lacks `## GSTACK REVIEW REPORT`, run `~/.claude/skills/gstack/bin/gstack-review-read` and append the standard runs/status/findings table. With `NO_REVIEWS` or empty, append a 5-row placeholder with verdict "NO REVIEWS YET — run `/autoplan`". If a richer report exists, skip.

PLAN MODE EXCEPTION — always allowed (it's the plan file).

# browse: QA Testing & Dogfooding

Persistent headless Chromium. First call auto-starts (~3s), then ~100ms per command.
State persists between calls (cookies, tabs, login sessions).

## SETUP (run this check BEFORE any browse command)

```bash
_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null)
B=""
[ -n "$_ROOT" ] && [ -x "$_ROOT/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse" ] && B="$_ROOT/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse"
[ -z "$B" ] && B="$HOME/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse"
if [ -x "$B" ]; then
  echo "READY: $B"
else
  echo "NEEDS_SETUP"
fi
```

If `NEEDS_SETUP`:
1. Tell the user: "gstack browse needs a one-time build (~10 seconds). OK to proceed?" Then STOP and wait.
2. Run: `cd <SKILL_DIR> && ./setup`
3. If `bun` is not installed:
   ```bash
   if ! command -v bun >/dev/null 2>&1; then
     BUN_VERSION="1.3.10"
     BUN_INSTALL_SHA="bab8acfb046aac8c72407bdcce903957665d655d7acaa3e11c7c4616beae68dd"
     tmpfile=$(mktemp)
     curl -fsSL "https://bun.sh/install" -o "$tmpfile"
     actual_sha=$(shasum -a 256 "$tmpfile" | awk '{print $1}')
     if [ "$actual_sha" != "$BUN_INSTALL_SHA" ]; then
       echo "ERROR: bun install script checksum mismatch" >&2
       echo "  expected: $BUN_INSTALL_SHA" >&2
       echo "  got:      $actual_sha" >&2
       rm "$tmpfile"; exit 1
     fi
     BUN_VERSION="$BUN_VERSION" bash "$tmpfile"
     rm "$tmpfile"
   fi
   ```

## Core QA Patterns

### 1. Verify a page loads correctly
```bash
$B goto https://yourapp.com
$B text                          # content loads?
$B console                       # JS errors?
$B network                       # failed requests?
$B is visible ".main-content"    # key elements present?
```

### 2. Test a user flow
```bash
$B goto https://app.com/login
$B snapshot -i                   # see all interactive elements
$B fill @e3 "user@test.com"
$B fill @e4 "password"
$B click @e5                     # submit
$B snapshot -D                   # diff: what changed after submit?
$B is visible ".dashboard"       # success state present?
```

### 3. Verify an action worked
```bash
$B snapshot                      # baseline
$B click @e3                     # do something
$B snapshot -D                   # unified diff shows exactly what changed
```

### 4. Visual evidence for bug reports
```bash
$B snapshot -i -a -o /tmp/annotated.png   # labeled screenshot
$B screenshot /tmp/bug.png                # plain screenshot
$B console                                # error log
```

### 5. Find all clickable elements (including non-ARIA)
```bash
$B snapshot -C                   # finds divs with cursor:pointer, onclick, tabindex
$B click @c1                     # interact with them
```

### 6. Assert element states
```bash
$B is visible ".modal"
$B is enabled "#submit-btn"
$B is disabled "#submit-btn"
$B is checked "#agree-checkbox"
$B is editable "#name-field"
$B is focused "#search-input"
$B js "document.body.textContent.includes('Success')"
```

### 7. Test responsive layouts
```bash
$B responsive /tmp/layout        # mobile + tablet + desktop screenshots
$B viewport 375x812              # or set specific viewport
$B screenshot /tmp/mobile.png
```

### 8. Test file uploads
```bash
$B upload "#file-input" /path/to/file.pdf
$B is visible ".upload-success"
```

### 9. Test dialogs
```bash
$B dialog-accept "yes"           # set up handler
$B click "#delete-button"        # trigger dialog
$B dialog                        # see what appeared
$B snapshot -D                   # verify deletion happened
```

### 10. Compare environments
```bash
$B diff https://staging.app.com https://prod.app.com

### 11. Show screenshots to the user
After `$B screenshot`, `$B snapshot -a -o`, or `$B responsive`, always use the Read tool on the output PNG(s) so the user can see them. Without this, screenshots are invisible.

### 12. Render local HTML (no HTTP server needed)
Two paths, pick the cleaner one:
```bash
# HTML file on disk → goto file:// (absolute, or cwd-relative)
$B goto file:///tmp/report.html
$B goto file://./docs/page.html        # cwd-relative
$B goto file://~/Documents/page.html   # home-relative

# HTML generated in memory → load-html reads the file into setContent
echo '<div class="tweet">hello</div>' > /tmp/tweet.html
$B load-html /tmp/tweet.html
```

`goto file://...` is usually cleaner (URL is saved in state, relative asset URLs resolve against the file's dir, scale changes replay naturally). `load-html` uses `page.setContent()` — URL stays `about:blank`, but the content survives `viewport --scale` via in-memory replay. Both are scoped to files under cwd or `$TMPDIR`.

### 13. Retina screenshots (deviceScaleFactor)
```bash
$B viewport 480x600 --scale 2       # 2x deviceScaleFactor
$B load-html /tmp/tweet.html        # or: $B goto file://./tweet.html
$B screenshot /tmp/out.png --selector .tweet-card
# → /tmp/out.png is 2x the pixel dimensions of the element
```
Scale must be 1-3 (gstack policy cap). Changing `--scale` recreates the browser context; refs from `snapshot` are invalidated (rerun `snapshot`), but `load-html` content is replayed automatically. Not supported in headed mode.

## Puppeteer → browse cheatsheet

Migrating from Puppeteer? Here's the 1:1 mapping for the core workflow:

| Puppeteer | browse |
|---|---|
| `await page.goto(url)` | `$B goto <url>` |
| `await page.setContent(html)` | `$B load-html <file>` (or `$B goto file://<abs>`) |
| `await page.setViewport({width, height})` | `$B viewport WxH` |
| `await page.setViewport({width, height, deviceScaleFactor: 2})` | `$B viewport WxH --scale 2` |
| `await (await page.$('.x')).screenshot({path})` | `$B screenshot <path> --selector .x` |
| `await page.screenshot({fullPage: true, path})` | `$B screenshot <path>` (full page default) |
| `await page.screenshot({clip: {x, y, w, h}, path})` | `$B screenshot <path> --clip x,y,w,h` |

Worked example (the tweet-renderer flow — Puppeteer → browse):

```bash
# Generate HTML in memory, render at 2x scale, screenshot the tweet card.
echo '<div class="tweet-card" style="width:400px;height:200px;background:#1da1f2;color:white;padding:20px">hello</div>' > /tmp/tweet.html
$B viewport 480x600 --scale 2
$B load-html /tmp/tweet.html
$B screenshot /tmp/out.png --selector .tweet-card
# /tmp/out.png is 800x400 px, crisp (2x deviceScaleFactor).
```

Aliases: typing `setcontent` or `set-content` routes to `load-html` automatically. Typing a typo (`load-htm`) returns `Did you mean 'load-html'?`.

## User Handoff

When you hit something you can't handle in headless mode (CAPTCHA, complex auth, multi-factor
login), hand off to the user:

```bash
# 1. Open a visible Chrome at the current page
$B handoff "Stuck on CAPTCHA at login page"

# 2. Tell the user what happened (via AskUserQuestion)
#    "I've opened Chrome at the login page. Please solve the CAPTCHA
#     and let me know when you're done."

# 3. When user says "done", re-snapshot and continue
$B resume
```

**When to use handoff:**
- CAPTCHAs or bot detection
- Multi-factor authentication (SMS, authenticator app)
- OAuth flows that require user interaction
- Complex interactions the AI can't handle after 3 attempts

The browser preserves all state (cookies, localStorage, tabs) across the handoff.
After `resume`, you get a fresh snapshot of wherever the user left off.

## Snapshot Flags

The snapshot is your primary tool for understanding and interacting with pages.
`$B` is the browse binary (resolved from `$_ROOT/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse` or `~/.claude/skills/gstack/browse/dist/browse`).

**Syntax:** `$B snapshot [flags]`

```
-i        --interactive           Interactive elements only (buttons, links, inputs) with @e refs. Also auto-enables cursor-interactive scan (-C) to capture dropdowns and popovers.
-c        --compact               Compact (no empty structural nodes)
-d <N>    --depth                 Limit tree depth (0 = root only, default: unlimited)
-s <sel>  --selector              Scope to CSS selector
-D        --diff                  Unified diff against previous snapshot (first call stores baseline)
-a        --annotate              Annotated screenshot with red overlay boxes and ref labels
-o <path> --output                Output path for annotated screenshot (default: <temp>/browse-annotated.png)
-C        --cursor-interactive    Cursor-interactive elements (@c refs — divs with pointer, onclick). Auto-enabled when -i is used.
-H <json> --heatmap               Color-coded overlay screenshot from JSON map: '{"@e1":"green","@e3":"red"}'. Valid colors: green, yellow, red, blue, orange, gray.
```

All flags can be combined freely. `-o` only applies when `-a` is also used.
Example: `$B snapshot -i -a -C -o /tmp/annotated.png`

**Flag details:**
- `-d <N>`: depth 0 = root element only, 1 = root + direct children, etc. Default: unlimited. Works with all other flags including `-i`.
- `-s <sel>`: any valid CSS selector (`#main`, `.content`, `nav > ul`, `[data-testid="hero"]`). Scopes the tree to that subtree.
- `-D`: outputs a unified diff (lines prefixed with `+`/`-`/` `) comparing the current snapshot against the previous one. First call stores the baseline and returns the full tree. Baseline persists across navigations until the next `-D` call resets it.
- `-a`: saves an annotated screenshot (PNG) with red overlay boxes and @ref labels drawn on each interactive element. The screenshot is a separate output from the text tree — both are produced when `-a` is used.

**Ref numbering:** @e refs are assigned sequentially (@e1, @e2, ...) in tree order.
@c refs from `-C` are numbered separately (@c1, @c2, ...).

After snapshot, use @refs as selectors in any command:
```bash
$B click @e3       $B fill @e4 "value"     $B hover @e1
$B html @e2        $B css @e5 "color"      $B attrs @e6
$B click @c1       # cursor-interactive ref (from -C)
```

**Output format:** indented accessibility tree with @ref IDs, one element per line.
```
  @e1 [heading] "Welcome" [level=1]
  @e2 [textbox] "Email"
  @e3 [button] "Submit"
```

Refs are invalidated on navigation — run `snapshot` again after `goto`.

## CSS Inspector & Style Modification

### Inspect element CSS
```bash
$B inspect .header              # full CSS cascade for selector
$B inspect                      # latest picked element from sidebar
$B inspect --all                # include user-agent stylesheet rules
$B inspect --history            # show modification history
```

### Modify styles live
```bash
$B style .header background-color #1a1a1a   # modify CSS property
$B style --undo                              # revert last change
$B style --undo 2                            # revert specific change
```

### Clean screenshots
```bash
$B cleanup --all                 # remove ads, cookies, sticky, social
$B cleanup --ads --cookies       # selective cleanup
$B prettyscreenshot --cleanup --scroll-to ".pricing" --width 1440 ~/Desktop/hero.png
```
