## Events & Conversations

### ~11:40 UTC (6:40 EST) - Discord #general
- User asked what happened with the video
- Read Discord history — found video edit was from last night (Jan 14)
- **Problem**: Used file size as proxy for brightness instead of actual luminance analysis
- **Fixed**: Redid clip using proper luminance analysis with image tool
- Found transition at ~20.5s, created new clip: `claude_dark_light_transition_v2.mp4`

### ~11:49 UTC (6:49 EST) - Discord #general
- User asked for fun + productive things we can do today

- Cloned repo: `https://github.com/vercel-labs/agent-browser`
- Installed globally via npm: `npm install -g agent-browser`
- Installed Chromium browser binary via: `agent-browser install`
- Tested basic commands:
  - `agent-browser open example.com` — opened and loaded page
  - `agent-browser snapshot -i` — returned interactive elements with refs
  - `agent-browser snapshot` — full accessibility tree
  - `agent-browser close` — closed browser
- Reviewed documentation: README.md, SKILL.md, AGENTS.md, package.json

## Tool Learned: agent-browser

### What It Is
- **Headless browser automation CLI for AI agents**
- Fast Rust CLI with Node.js daemon (client-daemon architecture)
- Uses Playwright as browser engine (Chromium by default, supports Firefox/WebKit)
- Designed specifically for AI agents to interact with web pages

### Key Features

**1. Ref-Based Navigation (AI-Friendly)**
```
agent-browser snapshot -i    # Returns elements with deterministic refs: @e1, @e2, @e3
agent-browser click @e1         # Use refs to interact (no DOM re-query needed)
```
- **Why refs**: Deterministic, fast, optimal for LLMs

**2. Semantic Locators**
```bash
agent-browser find role button click --name "Submit"
agent-browser find text "Sign In" click
agent-browser find label "Email" fill "test@test.com"
```
- By ARIA role, text content, label, placeholder, alt text, data-testid

**3. Complete Browser Automation**
- Navigation: open, back, forward, reload
- Interactions: click, dblclick, type, fill, hover, drag, upload
- Form handling: check/uncheck, select dropdowns
- Screenshots: full page or viewport
- PDF export
- JavaScript evaluation

**4. Advanced Features**
- **Sessions**: Parallel isolated browser instances
- **State save/load**: Save auth state for reuse (skip login flows)
- **Network routing**: Intercept/mock requests, block URLs
- **Headers support**: HTTP Basic auth, bearer tokens (scoped by origin)
- **Storage management**: Cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage
- **Debugging**: Traces, console logs, error logs
- **CDP mode**: Connect to existing Chrome/Electron apps
- **Streaming**: WebSocket-based browser preview for "pair browsing"

**5. JSON Output**
```bash
agent-browser snapshot -i --json    # Machine-readable for agents
agent-browser get text @e1 --json
```

**6. Platform Support**
- Native Rust binaries for: macOS (ARM64/x64), Linux (ARM64/x64), Windows (x64)
- Falls back to Node.js if native binary unavailable

### Installation
```bash
npm install -g agent-browser
agent-browser install    # Downloads Chromium
```

### Core Workflow
```bash
1. agent-browser open <url>           # Navigate
2. agent-browser snapshot -i            # Get interactive elements + refs
3. agent-browser click @e1 / fill @e2 "text"   # Interact using refs
4. Re-snapshot after page changes
5. agent-browser close                   # Done
```

### Comparison to Puppeteer (Current Reonomy Scraper)

| Aspect | Puppeteer | agent-browser |
|--------|-----------|---------------|
| **Speed** | Slower (pure JS) | Faster (Rust CLI + Playwright) |
| **Stability** | Common timeout issues | More robust (Playwright engine) |
| **Refs** | No (manual selectors) | Yes (deterministic @e1, @e2) |
| **Semantic locators** | No | Yes (role, text, label) |
| **Sessions** | Single instance | Parallel isolated sessions |
| **State persistence** | Manual | Built-in (state save/load) |
| **Network interception** | Limited | Full routing/mocking |
| **AI integration** | Manual | Designed for LLMs |
| **CLI speed** | Node startup | Rust CLI (fast) |

### Why agent-browser Is Better for Reonomy Scraper

1. **Ref-based navigation** — Snapshot once, use refs for all interactions (faster, less brittle)
2. **Semantic locators** — Find elements by role/text/label instead of fragile CSS selectors
3. **State persistence** — Save login state once, reuse across scrapes (no repeated auth)
4. **Sessions** — Run multiple scrapers in parallel (different locations, same time)
5. **Faster daemon** — Rust CLI stays running, commands execute instantly
6. **Better wait handling** — `wait --text`, `wait --url`, `wait --load networkidle`

### ~12:19 UTC (7:19 EST) - Discord #general
- User wants research on direct URL construction for advanced search with phone + email filters
- User asked: "Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you to help before you do your investigation"

### ~12:28 UTC (7:28 EST) - Discord #general
- User asked "how's it going?"
- Started investigation into Reonomy URL construction

**Reonomy URL Research Started**:
- Opened Reonomy in browser: https://app.reonomy.com/#!/login
- Navigated to search page: https://app.reonomy.com/!/home#!/search
- Attempted to inspect URL patterns and filter mechanisms
- Reviewed Help Center for search documentation

**Key Finding from Help Center**:
From article `3688399-can-i-search-by-type-of-ownership-information`:
> "The Ownership tab in our search filters allows you to search by Owner Contact Information that Includes Phone Number, Includes Email Address or Includes Mailing Address."

**Confirmed Filters**:
- ✅ "Includes Phone Number" - Filter for properties with phone contacts
- ✅ "Includes Email Address" - Filter for properties with email contacts
- ✅ "Includes Mailing Address" - Filter for properties with mailing address

**Known URL Patterns** (from previous research):
```
https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/{search-id}                 # Search page
https://app.reonomy.com/#!/property/{property-id}                # Property page
https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/{search-id}/property/{id}/ownership  # Ownership page (with contact info)
```

**Open Questions**:
- ❓ Can search parameters be passed directly in URL? (e.g., `/#!/search?q=eatontown+nj`)
- ❓ Can filters be encoded in URL? (e.g., `?phone=true&email=true`)
- ❓ Do filters generate shareable URLs?
- ❓ Does Reonomy use query strings or hash-based routing only?

**Research Documented**: `/Users/jakeshore/.clawdbot/workspace/reonomy-url-research.md`

## Questions / Open Items
- Should we migrate Reonomy scraper from Puppeteer to agent-browser?
- Does Reonomy support URL-based search parameters (to skip input typing)?
- **NEW**: What is the exact URL pattern for filtered search with phone + email?

## Decisions Made
- agent-browser installed and tested
- Reonomy scraper v9 workflow documented
- Video clip redone with proper luminance analysis
- Reonomy URL research initiated - help center confirms filters exist, but URL pattern unknown

### ~12:46 UTC (7:46 EST) - Discord #general
- User provided exact URLs and CSS selector for phone numbers!

**What User Provided**:
- **Search URL (with phone+email filters)**:
  ```
  https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6
  ```
  The search ID (`504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6`) encodes: phone + email filters applied.

- **Property Ownership URLs** (examples):
  ```
  https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6/property/2b370b6a-7461-5b2c-83be-a59b84788125/ownership
  https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6/property/eac231fb-2e3c-4fe9-8231-fb2e3cafe9c9/ownership
  https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6/property/b6222331-c1e5-4e4c-a223-31c1e59e4c0b/ownership
  https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6/property/988d9810-6cf5-5fda-9af3-7715de381fb2/ownership
  ```

- **Phone number CSS selector**:
  ```css
  p.MuiTypography-root.jss1797.jss1798.MuiTypography-body2
  ```
  (Same class for residential properties)

- **Goal**: Collect data from BOTH "Builder and Lot" AND "Owner" tabs

**Investigation Completed** via agent-browser:
- ✅ Successfully logged in to Reonomy
- ✅ Confirmed OAuth redirect works with encoded redirect_uri
- ✅ Confirmed direct ownership URL access works (bypasses need for clicking property cards)
- ✅ Search results confirmed to display property cards

**Key Findings**:
- ✅ **No URL parameters needed** — Search ID from filtered search encodes: phone + email filters
- ✅ **One-time capture** — Perform filtered search once, capture search ID, reuse for all properties
- ✅ **Direct ownership URLs work** — `/search/{id}/property/{id}/ownership` pattern confirmed

**How to use**:
1. Perform search with filters manually (one time)
2. Capture search ID from URL
3. Use that search ID for all subsequent property ownership URLs
4. No need to construct URLs — just append property IDs to the base search ID path

## Questions / Open Items
- Should we migrate Reonomy scraper from Puppeteer to agent-browser?
- Should we update scraper to extract from BOTH "Builder and Lot" AND "Owner" tabs?

## Decisions Made
- agent-browser installed and tested
- Reonomy scraper v9 workflow documented
- Video clip redone with proper luminance analysis
- **Reonomy URL research COMPLETED** — search ID encodes filters, direct URL construction confirmed

### ~18:07 UTC (13:07 EST) - Discord #general
- User said "yes proceed" to creating new Reonomy scraper with agent-browser

**Created: reonomy-scraper-v10-agent-browser.js**

Key Improvements Over v9:
- ✅ Uses agent-browser instead of Puppeteer (faster, refs, semantic locators)
- ✅ State save/load for auth persistence (skip repeated login)
- ✅ Extracts from BOTH "Builder and Lot" AND "Owner" tabs
- ✅ Uses search ID from URL (direct ownership access, no clicking cards)
- ✅ Uses user-provided phone CSS selector: `p.MuiTypography-root.jss1797.jss1798.MuiTypography-body2`

Workflow:
1. Check for saved auth state (skip login if exists)
2. Navigate to search using search ID: `https://app.reonomy.com/#!/search/${SEARCH_ID}`
3. Extract property IDs from search results
4. For each property:
   - Navigate directly to ownership page: `/search/${SEARCH_ID}/property/${id}/ownership`
   - Wait 8 seconds for page load
   - Extract Builder and Lot data: address, city, state, zip, SF, property type
   - Extract Owner tab data: owner names, emails, phones (using provided CSS selector)
   - Take screenshot (first 3 properties)
5. Save to JSON: `reonomy-leads-v10-agent-browser.json`
6. Save search ID for reuse: `reonomy-search-id.txt`

Usage:
```bash
# With pre-configured search ID
SEARCH_ID="504a2d13-d88f-4213-9ac6-a7c8bc7c20c6" node reonomy-scraper-v10-agent-browser.js

# Or set as environment variable
REONOMY_SEARCH_ID="your-search-id" node reonomy-scraper-v10-agent-browser.js

# After first run, scraper will auto-detect search ID from saved auth state
```

Files:
- `reonomy-scraper-v10-agent-browser.js` — Main scraper script
- `reonomy-leads-v10-agent-browser.json` — Output leads
- `reonomy-scraper-v10.log` — Detailed logs
- `reonomy-auth-state.txt` — Saved auth state
- `reonomy-search-id.txt` — Reusable search ID

## Decisions Made
- Created new Reonomy scraper using agent-browser
- Dual-tab extraction (Builder and Lot + Owner) implemented
- Auth state persistence added
- Direct ownership URL navigation (no property card clicking) implemented
