# AWT — Eyes and Hands for Your AI Coding Tool

**Your AI coding tool is smart. But it can't see or click a web page.** AWT gives it a real browser — so it can test, find bugs, and fix them without you lifting a finger.

[![License: AGPL-3.0](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-AGPL--3.0-blue.svg)](LICENSE)
[![Agent Skills](https://img.shields.io/badge/Agent_Skills-Compatible-brightgreen.svg)](https://agentskills.io)

> **Works without AI API** — write YAML scenarios manually and run `aat run`. No API key needed. AI coding tools make it easier, but are not required.

---

## What is AWT?

AWT is the **execution engine** for AI-powered E2E testing. Your AI coding tool designs the tests; AWT runs them in a real browser with Playwright.

**How it works in Skill Mode (no extra AI API key needed):**

```
You: "Test the login flow on https://mysite.com"

Your AI coding tool:
  → Writes 5 YAML scenarios (30 steps)
  → Runs: aat run scenarios/
  → Reads failure: "Step 4: Dashboard text not visible"
  → Reads screenshot + source code
  → Fixes src/pages/login.js:23
  → Re-runs: aat run scenarios/
  → All 5 scenarios pass ✓
```

**Key capabilities:**
- **Execute** tests in a real browser with human-like mouse/keyboard interaction
- **See** — take screenshots, detect elements via OCR and image matching
- **Report** — step-by-step pass/fail with error details and screenshots
- **Self-heal** (CLI mode) — `aat loop` auto-fixes failures with its own AI
- **Learn** — successful matches stored in SQLite, getting faster over time

## Installation

### One-line install (recommended)

```bash
npx skills add ksgisang/awt-skill --skill awt -g
```

### Manual Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ksgisang/awt-skill.git /tmp/awt-skill
cp -r /tmp/awt-skill/awt ~/.claude/skills/awt
rm -rf /tmp/awt-skill
```

### Per-Project Installation

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ksgisang/awt-skill.git /tmp/awt-skill
cp -r /tmp/awt-skill/awt .claude/skills/awt
rm -rf /tmp/awt-skill
```

After installation, the skill auto-triggers on testing-related prompts.

### Updating

```bash
# Re-run the same install command to get the latest version
npx skills add ksgisang/awt-skill --skill awt -g -y
```

For manual installations: `cd ~/.claude/skills/awt && git pull`

### When to use each:
- **webapp-testing** — Quick one-off Playwright scripts for simple page checks
- **playwright-skill** — When you need fine-grained Playwright API control
- **AWT Skill Mode** — Your AI coding tool designs tests, AWT executes them. **No extra AI API key needed.**
- **AWT CLI Mode** — Standalone automated testing with `aat generate` + `aat loop` for CI/CD

## Supported AI Coding Tools

AWT follows the [Agent Skills open standard](https://agentskills.io) and works with:

| Tool | Status |
|------|--------|
| Claude Code | Supported |
| Cursor | Compatible |
| Codex | Compatible |
| Gemini CLI | Compatible |
| Amp | Compatible |
| Cline | Compatible |
| Aider | Compatible |
| Windsurf | Compatible |
| Roo Code | Compatible |
| PearAI | Compatible |
| Antigravity | Supported |

## Quick Example

### YAML Scenario

```yaml
id: "SC-001"
name: "User Login"
tags: ["auth", "login"]
depends_on: ["SC-000"]
steps:
  - step: 1
    action: navigate
    value: "{{url}}/login"
    description: "Go to login page"

  - step: 2
    action: find_and_type
    target:
      text: "Email"
      match_method: ocr
    value: "test@example.com"
    humanize: true
    description: "Enter email"

  - step: 3
    action: find_and_click
    target:
      text: "Login"
    description: "Click login button"

  - step: 4
    action: assert
    assert_type: text_visible
    expected:
      - type: text_visible
        value: "Welcome back"
    description: "Verify login success"
```

### Natural Language (in Claude Code)

> "Login to mysite.com with test@example.com, then check if the dashboard loads"

AWT converts this to a YAML scenario and executes it automatically.

## 5-Step DevQA Workflow

```
Scan → Plan → Review → Execute → Heal
  ↑                                 |
  └─── Loop back on failure ────────┘
```

1. **Scan** — Crawl site, analyze DOM, detect features
2. **Plan** — AI generates YAML test scenarios
3. **Review** — User reviews/edits before execution
4. **Execute** — Playwright runs with live screenshots
5. **Heal** — AI analyzes failure → suggests fix → re-tests

## AI Providers

| Provider | Vision | Cost | Offline |
|----------|--------|------|---------|
| Claude (default) | Yes | Medium | No |
| OpenAI (GPT-4o) | Yes | Higher | No |
| Gemini (default: free) | Yes | Free tier | Yes |
| DeepSeek | No | Low | No |
| Ollama | No | Free | Yes |
