AI Summary
An optimization release that reduces non-AI time per step by minimizing view hierarchy fetches during screen reading.
Key Highlights
- Hierarchy fetches reduced from 11-13 to 3-4 per step
- Single hierarchy fetch used for elements, UI tree, and focus
New Features
- Reduced hierarchy fetches per step
Full Release Notes
Each step now reads the device screen with far fewer view hierarchy fetches, which cuts non-AI time per step. On an Android emulator, reading the screen went from about 1.4s to 0.2–0.4s per step, and hierarchy fetches went from 11–13 to 3–4 per step. ## Fewer Hierarchy Fetches per Step (#452, #453) - Reads no longer check the connection with an extra hierarchy fetch first. A read that fails reconnects and is retried. Actions keep the up-front check, so a tap or key press that failed part way is not repeated blindly. - A step's elements, UI tree and focused element now come from one hierarchy fetch, so they always describe the same frame. ## What's Changed * Reconnect on a failed device read instead of probing before every read by @takahirom in https://github.com/takahirom/arbigent/pull/452 * Read a step's elements, tree and focus from one hierarchy fetch by @takahirom in https://github.com/takahirom/arbigent/pull/453 **Full Changelog**: https://github.com/takahirom/arbigent/compare/0.86.0...0.87.0
