# Real-Time Form Discovery Updates Summary
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
The LiveKit agent has been completely updated to use **REAL-TIME ONLY** form field discovery. The system now **NEVER uses cached selectors** and always gets fresh field selectors using MCP tools on every request.
|
|
|
|
## Key Changes Made
|
|
|
|
### 🔄 Core Philosophy Change
|
|
- **FROM**: Cache-first approach with fallback to discovery
|
|
- **TO**: Real-time only approach with NO cache dependency
|
|
|
|
### 🚫 Eliminated Cache Dependencies
|
|
- **Removed**: All cached selector lookups from `fill_field_by_name()`
|
|
- **Removed**: Fuzzy matching against cached fields
|
|
- **Removed**: Auto-detection cache refresh
|
|
- **Added**: Pure real-time discovery pipeline
|
|
|
|
## Updated Methods
|
|
|
|
### 1. `fill_field_by_name()` - Complete Rewrite
|
|
**Before**: Cache → Refresh → Fuzzy Match → Discovery
|
|
```python
|
|
# OLD: Cache-first approach
|
|
if field_name_lower in self.cached_input_fields:
|
|
# Use cached selector
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**After**: Real-time only discovery
|
|
```python
|
|
# NEW: Real-time only approach
|
|
discovery_result = await self._discover_form_fields_dynamically(field_name, value)
|
|
enhanced_result = await self._enhanced_field_detection_with_retry(field_name, value)
|
|
content_result = await self._analyze_page_content_for_field(field_name, value)
|
|
direct_result = await self._direct_mcp_element_search(field_name, value)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. New Real-Time Methods Added
|
|
|
|
#### `_direct_mcp_element_search()`
|
|
- **Purpose**: Exhaustive real-time element search
|
|
- **Uses**: `chrome_get_interactive_elements` for ALL elements
|
|
- **Features**: Very flexible matching, common selector generation
|
|
|
|
#### `_is_very_flexible_match()`
|
|
- **Purpose**: Ultra-flexible field matching for difficult cases
|
|
- **Features**: Partial text matching, type-based matching
|
|
|
|
#### `_generate_common_selectors()`
|
|
- **Purpose**: Generate intelligent CSS selectors in real-time
|
|
- **Features**: Field name variations, type-specific patterns
|
|
|
|
### 3. Enhanced LiveKit Agent Functions
|
|
|
|
#### New Function Tools:
|
|
- `fill_field_realtime_only()` - Guaranteed real-time discovery
|
|
- `get_realtime_form_fields()` - Live form field discovery
|
|
- Enhanced `discover_and_fill_field()` - Pure real-time approach
|
|
|
|
## Real-Time Discovery Pipeline
|
|
|
|
### Step 1: Dynamic MCP Discovery
|
|
```python
|
|
# Uses chrome_get_interactive_elements and chrome_get_content_web_form
|
|
discovery_result = await self._discover_form_fields_dynamically(field_name, value)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 2: Enhanced Detection with Retry
|
|
```python
|
|
# Multiple retry attempts with increasing flexibility
|
|
enhanced_result = await self._enhanced_field_detection_with_retry(field_name, value, max_retries=3)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 3: Content Analysis
|
|
```python
|
|
# Analyzes page content for field patterns
|
|
content_result = await self._analyze_page_content_for_field(field_name, value)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Step 4: Direct MCP Search
|
|
```python
|
|
# Exhaustive search through ALL page elements
|
|
direct_result = await self._direct_mcp_element_search(field_name, value)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## MCP Tools Used
|
|
|
|
### Primary Tools:
|
|
- **chrome_get_interactive_elements** - Gets current form elements
|
|
- **chrome_get_content_web_form** - Analyzes form structure
|
|
- **chrome_get_web_content** - Content analysis
|
|
- **chrome_fill_or_select** - Fills discovered fields
|
|
|
|
### Discovery Strategy:
|
|
1. **Real-time element discovery** using MCP tools
|
|
2. **Live selector generation** based on current attributes
|
|
3. **Immediate validation** of generated selectors
|
|
4. **Dynamic field matching** with flexible criteria
|
|
|
|
## Voice Command Processing
|
|
|
|
### Natural Language Examples:
|
|
```
|
|
"fill email with john@example.com"
|
|
"enter password secret123"
|
|
"type hello in search box"
|
|
"add user name John Smith"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Processing Flow:
|
|
1. **Parse voice command** → Extract field name and value
|
|
2. **Real-time discovery** → Use MCP tools to find current elements
|
|
3. **Match and fill** → Generate selector and fill field
|
|
4. **Provide feedback** → Report success/failure with method used
|
|
|
|
## Benefits of Real-Time Approach
|
|
|
|
### 🎯 Accuracy
