**Audit Date:** 2025-12-15
**Auditor:** Opus 4.5

## Missing Features & Implementation Suggestions

### 🔴 Critical Gaps

1. **Visual Feedback Loop (Open-Interface Style)**
   - **Gap:** No automatic "take screenshot → analyze → act → repeat" loop
   - **Fix:** Implement a `/vision-loop` command that:
     1. Takes screenshot
     2. Sends to vision model (Qwen-VL or GPT-4V)
     3. Parses response for actions
     4. Executes via `input.ps1`
     5. Repeats until goal achieved
   - **Credit:** AmberSahdev/Open-Interface

2. **Full OCR Support**
   - **Gap:** OCR is a stub in `input.ps1`
   - **Fix:** Integrate Windows 10+ OCR API or Tesseract
   - **Code from:** Windows.Media.Ocr namespace

3. **Playwright Integration (Real)**
   - **Gap:** `playwright` command just simulates
   - **Fix:** Create `bin/playwright-bridge.js` that:
     1. Launches Chromium with Playwright
     2. Exposes WebSocket for commands
     3. `input.ps1 playwright` calls this bridge
   - **Credit:** browser-use/browser-use

4. **Content Extraction**
   - **Gap:** Cannot read web page content
   - **Fix:** Use Playwright `page.content()` or clipboard hack

### 🟡 Enhancement Opportunities

1. **Course Correction (Open-Interface)**
   - After each action, automatically take screenshot and verify success
   - If UI doesn't match expected state, retry or ask for guidance

2. **CSS/XPath Selectors (Browser-Use)**
   - Current `findby` only supports Name, ControlType, Class
   - For web: need Playwright or CDP for CSS selectors

3. **Multi-Tab Browser Control**
   - Use `--remote-debugging-port` to connect via CDP
   - Enable tab switching, new tabs, close tabs

## Opus 4.5 Improvement Recommendations

### 1. **Natural Language → Action Translation**
Current TERMINUS prompt is complex. Simplify with:
```javascript
// Decision Tree in handleSubmit
if (isComputerUseRequest) {
    // Skip AI interpretation, directly map to actions
    const actionMap = {
        'click start': 'input.ps1 key LWIN',
        'open chrome': 'input.ps1 open chrome.exe',
        'google X': 'input.ps1 googlesearch X'
    };
    // Execute immediately without LLM call for simple requests
}
```

### 2. **Action Confirmation UI**
Add visual feedback in TUI when executing:
```
🖱️ Executing: uiclick "Start"
⏳ Waiting for element...
✅ Clicked at (45, 1050)
```

### 3. **Streaming Action Execution**
Instead of generating all commands then executing, stream:
1. AI generates first command
2. TUI executes immediately
3. AI generates next based on result
4. Repeat

### 4. **Safety Sandbox**
Add `/sandbox` mode that:
- Shows preview of actions before execution
- Requires confirmation for system-level changes
- Logs all actions for audit

### 5. **Vision Model Integration**
```javascript
// In agent-prompt.mjs, add:
if (activeSkill?.id === 'win-vision') {
    // Attach screenshot to next API call
    const screenshot = await captureScreen();
    context.visionImage = screenshot;
}
```
