What

Three commits, from the post-mortem of #578.

The capture tool locates the change instead of guessing at it.

captureFrame scrolled to the selector and shot the viewport. Its description claimed the frame was "cropped to the selector"; it never was, and agent-browser screenshot has no crop option to do it with. A selector matching nothing scrolled nowhere and produced a top-of-page frame, which on the landing is the hero and looks exactly like a working screenshot.

It now resolves the target in the page before anything else (agent/lib/capture.ts):

  • selector when the surface has a hook, [data-section="landing-faq"] and the like.
  • text when it does not. Pass a sentence visible on the page; the capture finds it, widens to the nearest sectioning ancestor, and stamps that element with a temporary data-evi-capture attribute so the scroll can address it by selector. The mark lives for one capture and never touches the repository. This means a page whose components carry no hook is captured correctly today, with no markup change first.
  • Nothing resolved is a hard failure, and the error lists the data-section hooks and the headings the page does offer, so the retry is a correction rather than another guess.
  • The frame stays the normal viewport, scrolled to the change. No resize, no cropping.
  • Only the composed markdown is returned. The tool used to also hand back the bare image URLs, which is what the mis-framed PR body was assembled from, dropping the attestation receipt that would have shown full viewport and exposed the problem. The receipt now also records how the target resolved.

The skills that let it ship.

  • The scope list in .github/workflows/semantic-pull-request.yml is a closed set, read before writing a title. docs: add an FAQ section to the landing #578 opened as docs(evlog):, which is not in that list and is forbidden by AGENTS.md; Validate PR title was red and nobody looked.
  • CI is read back once the PR is open, and a PR is not finished when it is open.
  • before-after documents both locators, the hard failure, and that a pure addition has no meaningful before/after table.

Why

The failure had four layers and no single one was the bug: no stable selector existed to write, the tool never cropped, a miss failed silently into a plausible frame, and the receipt recording the framing was stripped. Fixing only the guidance would have left the silent fallback in place.

Notes

  • apps/evi only, nothing published, so no changeset.
  • pnpm exec tsc clean; agent/lib/capture.test.ts passes 19 tests, 11 new.
  • Verified end to end against the docs dev server by driving Chrome with the exact algorithm from agent/lib/capture.ts, on this branch, whose landing carries no data-section hooks: text: "Every blind spot" resolved by copy, widened to the right section, and framed it; an absent sentence was refused with the page's twelve headings listed and no frame written.
  • evals caught a real regression on the first push: lengthening the shipping section pushed git__push far enough down that contributing/ship-flow stopped naming it. Fixed at the cause by making step 5 state that it is the only way code reaches the remote, rather than by touching the eval.
  • The data-section hooks in the companion apps/docs PR are now an optimisation, not a prerequisite: they make the selector derivable, and text covers everything else.

… run

The scope list in the semantic-pull-request workflow is a closed set, CI is
read back once the PR is open, and a capture is looked at before it is
pasted: a clip built from viewport coordinates lands on the hero and still
looks like a screenshot.
The capture tool scrolled to the selector and shot the viewport, so a
selector that matched nothing produced a top-of-page frame that looked like
a successful screenshot. It now probes the element first, refuses the call
with the page's data-section hooks when it misses, resizes the viewport to
the element and parks on it. Only the composed markdown is returned, so the
attestation receipt cannot be dropped by reassembling the table by hand.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f5535

This change makes selector-based captures fail on misses and frame matched elements, but dynamic pages can still produce incorrectly framed screenshots because the element is measured before settling and failed parking is not rejected. The bounded viewport behavior is also described too strongly, and a lint error remains, so the PR needs follow-up before merge.

🌐 Web query:

For current Chromium, does CSS scroll-behavior: smooth affect Element.scrollIntoView() and Window.scrollTo(x, y) when no behavior option is specified, and is behavior: "instant" supported by both APIs?

💡 Result:

For current Chromium, the CSS scroll-behavior property significantly influences programmatic scrolling methods, and support for the behavior: instant option is now standard across these APIs [1][2][3]. Effect of CSS scroll-behavior: When using Element.scrollIntoView or Window.scrollTo without an explicit behavior option (or when behavior is set to auto), the browser respects the computed value of the scroll-behavior CSS property on the element being scrolled (or the root element for the viewport) [1][2]. If scroll-behavior is set to smooth, these methods will perform a smooth scroll by default [4][5]. Support for behavior: instant: Modern Chromium browsers (and other major engines) support behavior: instant in both Element.scrollIntoView and Window.scrollTo [6][7][8]. This option forces the scroll to occur immediately, overriding any smooth scroll-behavior defined in CSS [9][8]. While some older versions of Chromium had issues correctly respecting instant in scrollIntoView, these have been resolved in recent releases, ensuring that developers can explicitly force an instant jump regardless of the applied CSS [8]. In summary: - Omitted behavior or behavior: auto defaults to the CSS-defined behavior (e.g., smooth) [1][2]. - behavior: instant is fully supported and overrides CSS-defined smooth scrolling [6][8].

Reprobe after settling and validate parking.

The first probe runs before the 500 ms settle delay. If scroll-triggered rendering changes the target height or replaces the target, Line 28 uses stale dimensions and Line 29 ignores a failed park result. The tool can complete with the wrong frame.

Probe again after the delay. Resize from the new height. Reject a failed park response.

The selector is now optional: pass the visible text instead and the capture
finds it, widens to the nearest section, and marks that element so the
scroll can address it. A page whose components carry no hook is captured
without touching the page's markup first. The frame stays the normal
viewport, scrolled to the change, and an unresolved target still fails with
the hooks and headings the page does offer.

@coderabbitai the review landed on f553534, and 41a0e4b replaced the framing approach it was reviewing. Here is where each finding stands.

Applied.

  • Brace style in capture.test.ts. Real, and worse than reported: the whole file was off. apps/evi has no lint script, so turbo lint never visits it and CI's "Lint & typecheck" is green while the directory is not. It had drifted to stroustrup braces while the repo is 1tbs (92 } catch in packages/evlog/src, 6 stroustrup in apps/evi). 10de270 brings the three files this PR touches to zero errors, including the defineDynamic block that was mis-indented before this PR.
  • max-params on captureFrame. Not in the review, found while fixing the above. It now takes one options object.

No longer applicable, because the code is gone in 41a0e4b:

  • behavior: 'instant' on scrollIntoView / scrollTo. frameParkExpression was deleted; the scroll is now agent-browser's own scrollintoview against a temporary marker attribute, which is Playwright-backed and does not depend on CSS scroll behaviour. Worth noting the premise was already false here: neither apps/docs nor apps/evi sets scroll-behavior: smooth, so nothing was scrolling smoothly to begin with.
  • Bounded 320-2400 px viewport wording. frameHeight and the viewport resize were deleted. The frame is now the normal viewport scrolled to the change, and the description says exactly that.
  • Reprobe the height after the settle wait, validate the parking command. Both belonged to the resize-and-park flow that no longer exists. The single probe that remains resolves the target and fails the call when it matches nothing.

The rest of apps/evi is still around 230 lint errors, all in files this PR does not touch. Sweeping them belongs in its own change, together with adding the missing lint script so CI stops reporting green on an unlinted directory.

@HugoRCD Thanks for the detailed status and the current-branch evidence.

I verified that 41a0e4b removed frameParkExpression and frameHeight. captureFrame now probes the target, fails on a miss, and uses agent-browser scrollintoview with CAPTURE_MARK. The viewport-resize and custom-scroll findings do not apply to this implementation.

I also verified that apps/evi/package.json has no lint script. The touched capture files now use the expected } catch { brace style. The formatting finding is addressed.

The remaining apps/evi lint backlog and lint-script addition should stay outside this PR. I used your lint-script clarification as repository context.

Learning: In the `apps/evi` workspace, `package.json` has no `lint` script. Therefore, a root `turbo lint` command does not lint this workspace. Keep broad `apps/evi` lint cleanup and adding its workspace lint script in a separate change unless the PR explicitly changes that tooling.

Note: Learnings are effective only in the context of similar code segments. To apply general coding guidelines, please configure review instructions. You can manage existing learnings in the app.

apps/evi has no lint script, so turbo never lints it and these files drifted
to stroustrup braces while the rest of the repo is 1tbs. Reindent the tool's
defineDynamic block and take captureFrame's arguments as one object.
