asensagent a42d58d92b docs: comprehensive audit fix for CLI 1.0.0–1.4.2 (#520)
* docs: comprehensive audit fix for CLI 1.0.0–1.4.2

Align docs/ and skills/ with CLI actual state after 1.0.0→1.4.2 changes.

P0 — broken examples fixed:
- quickstart.mdx: add --session/--tab, use start+goto instead of open
- index.mdx: replace search→get→operate flow with start→snapshot→automate
- api-reference/cli.mdx: remove search/get sections, add full browser
  command reference with --session/--tab on all commands
- guides/browser.mdx: add --session/--tab to Local Mode examples,
  replace search→get recommended workflow with snapshot-based workflow
- guides/cli-and-skills.mdx: add --session/--tab, update skill workflow
  from search→get→operate to start→snapshot→automate

P1 — missing flags and commands:
- command-reference.md: add --provider/-p, --stealth/--no-stealth,
  --header, --session to start; add --wait-until to goto; add --by-ref
  to select; add --no-isolate, pre-context fields, structured error
  details to eval; add --screenshot-format, --selector to screenshot;
  add hermes target and --browser to setup; remove --executable-path
- SKILL.md: add missing commands to Observation row (viewport, attr,
  attrs, box, styles, describe, state, inspect-point, pdf) and
  Interaction row (focus, drag, upload, eval, mouse-move,
  cursor-position); add cloud provider workflow section

* docs: restore search/get references per review feedback

Keep actionbook search and actionbook get sections in docs — they will
be adjusted later. Restores search/get to api-reference/cli.mdx,
index.mdx, browser.mdx recommended workflow, and cli-and-skills.mdx
core commands and skill workflow. The --session/--tab fixes on browser
commands remain.

* docs: add select diagnostic output to command-reference

Document that `browser select` now returns structured diagnostics
(available values, visible texts, match mode, total count) when an
option is not found (PR #521).

# CLI Reference
The Actionbook CLI (`actionbook`) is the primary interface for interacting with Actionbook. Every browser command is **stateless** — pass `--session` and `--tab` explicitly.
## `actionbook search`
Search for available action manuals.
**Usage:**
```bash
actionbook search [query]
```
**Arguments:**
- `query`: The search keyword (e.g., "airbnb", "google login").
**Example:**
```bash
actionbook search "airbnb search"
```
## `actionbook get`
Retrieve a specific action manual by its ID.
**Usage:**
```bash
actionbook get [actionId]
```
**Arguments:**
- `actionId`: The unique identifier of the action.
**Example:**
```bash
actionbook get "site/airbnb.com/page/home/element/search-button"
```
## `actionbook setup`
Initial setup wizard for API key, browser preferences, health checks, and optional skills install.
**Usage:**
```bash
actionbook setup
actionbook setup --target claude # Quick mode: install skills for an agent
actionbook setup --non-interactive --api-key <KEY>
actionbook setup --reset
```
**Targets:** `claude`, `codex`, `cursor`, `windsurf`, `antigravity`, `opencode`, `hermes`, `standalone`, `all`
---
## `actionbook browser`
Browser automation commands.
<Note>
After `actionbook setup`, browser command syntax is identical across all modes (local, cloud, extension).
</Note>
### Global Flags
These flags apply to all `actionbook browser` subcommands:
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--session <id>` | Target a specific session (defaults to `default`) |
| `--tab <id>` | Target a specific tab |
| `--json` | Output results as JSON envelope |
| `--timeout <ms>` | Set command timeout in milliseconds |
### Session Lifecycle
#### `actionbook browser start`
Start or attach a browser session. Entry point for all modes including cloud providers.
**Options:**
| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--mode <mode>` | Browser mode: `local`, `extension`, or `cloud` |
| `-p, --provider <name>` | Cloud browser provider: `driver`, `hyperbrowser`, `browseruse`. Implies `--mode cloud` |
| `--session <id>` | Session ID (get-or-create: reuse if exists, create if not) |
| `--set-session-id <id>` | Always create a new session with this ID (fails if already exists) |
| `--open-url <url>` | Open this URL on start |
| `--cdp-endpoint <url>` | Connect to an existing CDP endpoint |
| `--header <KEY:VALUE>` | Headers for CDP endpoint (may be repeated) |
| `--headless` | Run in headless mode |
| `--profile <name>` | Profile name |
| `--stealth` / `--no-stealth` | Anti-detection mode (default: enabled) |
**Examples:**
```bash
actionbook browser start --set-session-id s1
actionbook browser start --session s1 --open-url https://google.com
actionbook browser start -p hyperbrowser --session s1
actionbook browser start --mode cloud --cdp-endpoint wss://browser.example.com/ws
```
<Note>
`-p` is mutually exclusive with `--cdp-endpoint` and `--mode local/extension`.
See [Cloud Providers](/guides/browser#cloud-providers) for provider-specific env vars.
</Note>
#### Other Session Commands
```bash
actionbook browser list-sessions # List all active sessions
actionbook browser status --session s1 # Show session status
actionbook browser close --session s1 # Close a session (alias: stop)
actionbook browser restart --session s1 # Restart, preserving session_id
```
### Tab Management
```bash
actionbook browser list-tabs --session s1 # List tabs
actionbook browser new-tab "https://example.com" --session s1 # Open new tab (alias: open)
actionbook browser close-tab --session s1 --tab t1 # Close a tab
```
### Navigation
```bash
actionbook browser goto <url> --session s1 --tab t1 # Navigate to URL
actionbook browser back --session s1 --tab t1 # Go back
actionbook browser forward --session s1 --tab t1 # Go forward
actionbook browser reload --session s1 --tab t1 # Reload page
```
`goto` supports `--wait-until` to control when the command returns: `domcontentloaded` (default), `load`, or `none`.
### Observation

# Text input
actionbook browser fill "<selector>" "text" --session s1 --tab t1 # Clear field, then set value
actionbook browser type "<selector>" "text" --session s1 --tab t1 # Type keystroke by keystroke
# Keyboard
actionbook browser press Enter --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser press Control+A --session s1 --tab t1
# Selection
actionbook browser select "<selector>" "value" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser select "<selector>" "Display Text" --by-text --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser select "<selector>" @e12 --by-ref --session s1 --tab t1
# Mouse
actionbook browser hover "<selector>" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser focus "<selector>" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser mouse-move 420,310 --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser cursor-position --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser drag "<source>" "<target>" --session s1 --tab t1
# Scroll
actionbook browser scroll down --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser scroll down 500 --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser scroll into-view @e8 --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser scroll top --session s1 --tab t1
# JavaScript
actionbook browser eval "document.title" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser eval "document.querySelectorAll('a').length" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser eval "await fetch('/api/data').then(r => r.json())" --no-isolate --session s1 --tab t1
# File upload
actionbook browser upload "<selector>" /path/to/file.pdf --session s1 --tab t1
```
<Tip>
`fill` clears the field and sets the value directly (like pasting). `type` simulates individual keystrokes and appends to existing content.
</Tip>
<Tip>
`eval` isolates `let`/`const` scope by default. Use `--no-isolate` for multi-statement async expressions or when you need shared scope across calls.
</Tip>
### Wait
```bash
actionbook browser wait element "<selector>" --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser wait navigation --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser wait network-idle --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser wait condition "document.readyState === 'complete'" --session s1 --tab t1
```
Default timeout: 30000ms. Override with `--timeout <ms>`.
### Logs & Network
```bash
# Console logs
actionbook browser logs console --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser logs console --level warn,error --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser logs errors --session s1 --tab t1
# Network
actionbook browser network requests --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser network requests --filter /api/ --method POST --session s1 --tab t1
actionbook browser network request <id> --session s1 --tab t1 # Full detail + response body
```
### Cookies & Storage
```bash
# Cookies (session-level, no --tab)
actionbook browser cookies list --session s1

actionbook browser local-storage set myKey "value" --session s1 --tab t1
# Session Storage (same syntax as local-storage)
actionbook browser session-storage list --session s1 --tab t1
```
