- Agent makes ALL AI calls internally
- No parsing logic in ByteChat
- ByteChat just displays messages
- "Fill form with name=X email=Y"
- "My name is John and email is john@test.com"
- "Fill this form" β Agent asks for data
- Detects forms automatically
- Identifies required fields
- Checks if actions are possible
- Handles various input types
- Asks clarifying questions
- Remembers context
- Extracts data from responses
- Confirms before executing
- Always confirms actions (configurable)
- Never auto-submits without asking
- Respects "no" responses
- Clear progress reporting
- Intent analysis β AI
- Data extraction β AI
- Question generation β AI
- Plan generation β AI
- All using OpenRouter API
- New TypeScript files: 6 (1,268 lines)
- Modified files: 3
- Test files: 2
- Documentation: 3 documents (800+ lines)
- Total: ~2,100 lines of code + docs
- AI Prompts: 5 different prompts for different tasks
- Message Types: 5 (text, question, progress, completion, error)
- Intent Types: 3 (automation, question_answer, general_chat)
- Action Types: 11 (click, type, extract, scroll, hover, etc.)

// Agent handles everything:
// 1. Analyzes intent
// 2. Checks DOM
// 3. Asks for missing data OR confirms
// 4. Executes automation
// 5. Reports progressThat's it! The agent is completely autonomous.

- Plan generation: 1-3s (AI call)
- Execution: 300-500ms per step
- Simple form fill: 5-8 seconds (with all data)
- With questions: 10-15 seconds (one round of Q&A)

- DOM analysis finds forms
- Agent asks clarifying questions
- Data extraction from natural language
- Confirmation before actions
