PaddleOCR itself returns no color info, only text/bounds/confidence.
Add pixel-level post-processing in perception/ocr.py: crop the
screenshot to each OCR box, split pixels into two luminance clusters
via Otsu threshold, and treat the minority cluster as the text stroke
(foreground) and the majority as the background. New
SceneElement.foreground_color/background_color fields ("#rrggbb",
None when not OCR-sourced or sampling fails) round-trip through
to_dict/from_dict alongside the existing accessibility-state fields.
Planner system prompt documents the new fields as a secondary signal.
pillow is promoted from an implicit paddleocr transitive dependency to
an explicit direct dependency since perception/ocr.py now imports PIL
directly; uv.lock re-resolved with no version change (already locked
at 12.3.0).
Device Agent Runtime
Device Agent Runtime is a device-agnostic runtime for LLM-driven automation. It gives agents a stable way to observe, decide, and act against real devices through a small set of domain models, driver contracts, tools, perception providers, and runtime orchestration.
iPhone automation through WebDriverAgent/Appium is the first driver, not the platform boundary. Future drivers can target Android, browsers, desktop environments, or other device surfaces without changing the runtime's core contracts.
Current Shape

Python Workspace
The repository uses a uv workspace with one committed lockfile. From the repository root, synchronize every Python member with:
uv sync --locked --all-packages
Run the complete local test suite in a workspace environment:
uv run --all-packages pytest -m "not integration"
Select one member when running package-specific commands:
uv run --package device-agent-runtime python -c "import runtime"
uv run --package device-cloud-platform python -c "import cloud"
uv run --package device-cloud-api device-cloud-api --help
uv run --package device-host-agent device-host-agent --help
uv build --package device-agent-runtime
uv build --package device-cloud-platform
Runtime is an in-process execution library, not a standalone HTTP service. The
Host Agent console at http://127.0.0.1:8765/tasks is the authenticated
operator view for the tasks that actually execute on that Host, including
per-step screenshots, OCR observations, and UI-tree results. The Cloud Console
remains the fleet-level view for dispatch status and Cloud-proxy planner history.
Project Direction
The durable roadmap is in docs/ROADMAP.md. The architecture invariants future changes must preserve are in docs/CONSTITUTION.md.
Operator Guides
- Cloud Control Plane deployment: run local SQLite or deployed PostgreSQL, configure credentials and Runtime AI planning, and perform orderly shutdown or rollback.
- macOS migration and real iPhone setup: install Xcode, Appium/XCUITest, sign WebDriverAgent, verify a real device, and run a connected Host Agent.
