Stacked on #504 (feat/a11y-app-builds), which is stacked on #503: this PR's diff shows only its own two commits.

Why

Two gaps left after #504. A team with a compiled Espresso or XCUITest suite could not ask for App Accessibility checks through runAppTestsOnBrowserStack, even though the build APIs take an accessibility flag. And the link the SDK and the run tool print, the App Automate build link, was not one fetchAccessibilityIssues could read, so an agent holding it had to go and find the App Accessibility build by hand.

What

runAppTestsOnBrowserStack runs App Accessibility checks on request

  • New accessibility input (default off): the Espresso and XCUITest build requests carry accessibility: true.
  • The answer then says how the issues are read once the build finishes: fetchAccessibilityIssues with the App Automate build link as reportUrl.

fetchAccessibilityIssues reads App Automate build and session links (app-report-fetcher.ts)

  • An SDK (Appium) run: any session of the build → its test code (api-automation…/ext/v1/sessions/{id}/testCode) carries the TestHub build id the results went to, which is the App Accessibility build when accessibility was on. A session link skips the lookup.
  • A native (Espresso, XCUITest) run has no SDK session and testCode does not know its sessions, so it is found by name: the build's own details name its project, the App Automate build list names the build (Build #N: app vX), and App Accessibility lists the run under the same project and name.
  • A run without accessibility on, a build with no sessions, or one too old for the newest pages, each get a message saying so and what to pass instead.

Verified

  • npm run build: lint, prettier, 1381 tests (12 new), tsc.
  • Against production through the built code, with real runs: an SDK (pytest) build link resolved to its App Accessibility build and its issues; an Espresso build started with accessibility: true resolved by name to its App Accessibility build, where the run recorded no scans and the zero-scan checklist applies. Both the empty generic session list for native builds and the testCode "session not found" for native sessions are facts observed on those runs, which is why the two routes exist. Tests use made-up ids.

Follow-up (separate PR)

  • Listing app projects/builds/test cases, and manual (Workflow Analyzer) app reports.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Changes after review (Savio, Shreyas)

  • Mapping an App Automate link: the session list, the native build lookup and the build list fail with their status on anything but a 404 (checked live), instead of reading as "native build" or "not among the newest builds".
  • An Espresso run with accessibility says it also turns Test Observability on.
  • runAppTestsOnBrowserStack keeps main's description (297 chars).
  • npm run build passes: 1432 tests.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • App Automate runs can include accessibility checks for screens touched by tests on Android 11+ and iOS 14+.
    • Accessibility reports can be opened using App Automate build or session links. Reports include the framework name when available.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved guidance when accessibility scans find no issues, including possible causes specific to Espresso and XCUITest builds.
  • Documentation
    • Tool descriptions explain how to enable accessibility checks, meet framework-specific setup requirements, and retrieve reported issues.

📝 Walkthrough

Native App Automate runs now accept an optional accessibility flag. App Automate build and session links can resolve to App Accessibility builds. Native no-scan responses now include framework-specific causes.

Changes: Native App Accessibility

Layer / File(s) Summary
Enable accessibility checks for native runs
src/tools/appautomate-utils/native-execution/constants.ts, src/tools/appautomate-utils/native-execution/appautomate.ts, src/tools/appautomate.ts, docs/TOOLS.md, tests/tools/appautomate-native-accessibility.test.ts
The run schema accepts an optional accessibility flag. When enabled, Espresso and XCUITest requests include the flag, and Espresso also enables Test Observability. Success messages add issue-fetch guidance and framework-specific setup requirements. Tests cover enabled and default behavior.
Resolve App Automate links to accessibility builds
src/tools/accessiblity-utils/app-report-fetcher.ts, src/tools/accessiblity-utils/report-fetcher.ts, src/tools/accessibility.ts, tests/tools/accessibilityAppReport.test.ts
Report URL resolution accepts App Automate build and session links. Session links resolve through test codes; native builds resolve through project and build names. Build reports can include framework metadata. Tests cover mappings and lookup errors.
Explain missing native scans
src/tools/accessibility.ts, tests/tools/accessibilityScanOutput.test.ts
For Espresso and XCUITest builds, no-scan responses list native-specific causes and place any fair-usage-cap cause first. Tests check the native causes and omission of generic SDK causes.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d467e

Users may start an accessibility build with an unprepared native suite and receive no scans. Put the setup requirements in the guidance available before they upload and run the suite.

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d467e

The new report lookup can return externally controlled project and build names directly in error messages, without the protection used for normal report content. This creates a potential indirect prompt-injection path for agents reading those errors. Build execution remains opt-in, and report links do not directly determine authenticated request destinations.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: Native report-resolution failures interpolate remotely sourced build and project names into ordinary tool-error prose. Those names bypass the untrusted-content containment applied to successful report metadata, creating a potential indirect prompt-injection path from shared build metadata into the consuming agent.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — Direct API exposure uses the configured BrowserStack account's credentials. The identified error-content path additionally crosses into agent context: an attacker would need control of relevant project or build naming metadata and a lookup reaching the missing-report branch. No cross-account access or downstream privileged action was demonstrated.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A clean App Automate build link can cause remote project and build names to enter the “No App Accessibility build named” error. That exception reaches the MCP text response unchanged. Instructions embedded in naming metadata could therefore reach the agent outside the repository's normal untrusted-data wrapper. The base had an analogous raw URL-name error, but not this remote native-metadata route.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Successful report output explicitly treats build names and issue records as external data. wrapUntrusted adds nonce-delimited markers and instructions not to follow embedded directives. This is instruction-based containment, not an execution sandbox; the new native mapping error does not apply it.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Native execution preserves configured authentication, app/suite/project identity, upload ordering, server-issued build IDs, and existing failure propagation. The added flags do not introduce client-side retries or shared mutable transition state. Partial-upload cleanup and repeated-call behavior remain existing lifecycle limitations rather than newly introduced concerns.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Keep server-authored failure and recovery guidance separate from remote names, and apply the same untrusted-data containment to metadata on failure paths as on successful report output.

While native builds bring scans to light.
A build link hops from session code,
To find the report along its road.

And carrots celebrate the cause.

…UITest build on request

runAppTestsOnBrowserStack gains an `accessibility` input (default off). The Espresso
and XCUITest build requests then carry `accessibility: true`, and the answer says how
the issues are read once the build finishes: fetchAccessibilityIssues with the App
Automate build link.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
fetchAccessibilityIssues maps an App Automate build or session link to the run's App
Accessibility build. An SDK (Appium) run: any session of the build, then its test code,
which carries the TestHub build id the results went to. A native (Espresso, XCUITest)
run has no SDK session and the test-code route does not know its sessions, so it is
found by name: the build's details name its project, the App Automate build list names
the build, and App Accessibility lists the run under the same project and name. A run
without accessibility on, a build with no sessions, or one too old for the newest pages
each get a message saying so and what to pass instead.

…ead manual reports

listAppAccessibilityReports lists what App Accessibility has on record, newest first,
with the ids fetchAccessibilityIssues reads: a project's builds (and, without a project
name, the projects, since a build list needs one), or the manual Workflow Analyzer
reports. A project name matching none exactly names the near matches.

fetchAccessibilityIssues reads a manual report by appReportId or its dashboard link.
Its issues come inline from the report's scanned screens. The API lists every
occurrence and does not mark the duplicates the dashboard folds, so the answer gives
both the occurrences retrieved and the dashboard's own count. A report that has not
ended reads as in_progress and is waited on like the other sources.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The API answers an empty list with 404 ("No builds found", "No reports found") for
access-key callers. listAppAccessibilityReports now reads that as "none" and says so,
with what to drop or change; any other failure is still an error, with its status.

Found by the isolated MCP evals: a name filter that matched nothing came back as
"Request failed with status code 404".

…-and-manual

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The tools alone do not tell an agent that a web page and a mobile app are
scanned differently, so a request like "check my app for accessibility" could
reach for Website Scanner, or for nothing. The server instructions now route
it: a web page to Website Scanner, a multi-step web flow to Automate with
accessibility on, an app to its tests on App Automate with accessibility on,
then fetchAccessibilityIssues. A test keeps every tool the line names
registered.

…reliable build links

- The first page of an app build or manual report counts its issues by
  severity, rule and screen, so an agent need not page through every issue
  to say where the problems are.
- compareWith on an app build ("previous", or an earlier build's id or
  link) lists what is new, what was resolved and how many are still open,
  matching issues by rule and element (its id, or its class and text). It
  warns when the builds scanned different screens or ran different tests,
  as an issue on a screen not reached reads as resolved. "previous" is the
  newest earlier build of the same name, or the one just before it, as
  each native run is named apart.
- "N more issues" is now exact on every page (it was estimated from the
  first row's size past page one), and a row larger than a page is still
  returned, so paging cannot stall on it.
- An App Accessibility dashboard link is resolved by build name and
  number: numbers count up per build name, so a project's builds of
  different names share them, and the number alone could open another build.
- An Espresso / XCUITest build link finds its accessibility build by the
  run's start, among the project's newest builds, rather than by walking
  the account's newest 300 App Automate builds for its name, which missed
  older runs. The name still tells apart runs that started together.

…aring builds

An iOS issue often names its element by neither id nor class, only by a
frame and sometimes an accessibility label, so every issue of one rule
shared a match key: 40 font-size issues in one build and 9 in the next
counted as one issue still open, and the counts no longer added up to
either build's total. Issues that look alike are now paired one for one,
those on the same screen and spot first, and the label tells unnamed
elements apart. New and still open now add up to the later build's total,
and resolved and still open to the earlier one's; the answer says so.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…the cursor

A comparison listed the first 50 new and 50 resolved issues and said how
many more there were, but gave no way to read them: passing a cursor
returned the same 50 (an eval read only 50 of 111 resolved issues). The
cursor now counts the issues already listed, and the answer names the
next one while either list has more.

…t Observability, failed lookups

- An Espresso build with accessibility on now also sends
  testObservability: true: Espresso's App Accessibility report is
  generated through Test Observability, and without it the build records
  no scans.
- With accessibility on, the run-started answer names what the suite needs
  to be scanned: BrowserStack's Gradle plugin and SDK for Espresso, the
  embedded, initialized Swift SDK for XCUITest.
- A native build that recorded no scans gets those causes, not the SDK's
  (browserstack.yml, driver fixture), which do not apply to it; the
  framework comes from the build's session_data.
- A failed App Automate session lookup (401, 429, 5xx) is reported with its
  HTTP status instead of as "accessibility was not on for this run".

…stings, untrusted report names

- appReportId must be a UUID, as a dashboard link's is: ".." would have
  sent an authenticated request to another API path.
- A listing reads a 404 as empty only when the API says nothing was found
  ("No builds found", "No reports found"); a 404 from a wrong route or a
  missing permission is an error again instead of an empty list.
- A manual report's name and link are quoted in an untrusted block, as
  build names now are.

  the result: the comparison runs from the earlier build to the later,
  and says so.
- The compared builds' names and the names of tests not run again are
  quoted in untrusted blocks, as the build's own name now is.
- "previous" no longer answers "first build" when it stopped at the page
  limit: it says the build, or the one before it, is beyond the newest
  builds read and asks for the earlier build's id or link; and when no
  same-name build was found within those pages it says so rather than
  that none exists.

…eeds before it runs

The accessibility flag's description and the tool's docs row name the instrumentation a
native suite must be built with (Espresso: the Gradle plugin and Java SDK; XCUITest: the
Swift SDK), so the agent can check before a run that would otherwise record no scans.

…earch, say when the tool waits

- A project search that fails (401, 403, 500) is reported as that failure, not as "No

…e build identity

- A page of a project's build list that fails is reported as the failure, on the first
  page or a later one, instead of ending the list, which made a build with earlier ones
  read as its project's first.
- A native run is matched only to a build that can be native: an SDK suite (pytest, …)
  started at the same moment in the same project is no longer taken for it.

…n the user's framework

The routing line sent a mobile app only to its existing tests. An app with no tests yet
now has a path: the agent offers to write them, in the framework the user picks (Appium
in any SDK language, Espresso or XCUITest), and picks one, saying which, if left to it.

… its route takes the key

A manual report's issues are read from the dashboard's own screens
(app_scanner/:id/snapshot?hide_duplicate_issues=true) when that route takes the access key:
the count is then the dashboard's, and each issue names its element, fix and measurements.
Until it does (it answers a key with a login redirect today), they are read from the Manual
Reports API as before, every occurrence, with the dashboard's count stated next to them.
A manual report's page names each rule's text and each screen's screenshot once, as a
build's does.

…t reach as resolved

Screens are numbered by scan order, so comparing builds that scanned a different number of
screens matched issues across them but read every issue on a screen the later build never
reached as resolved: build #3 of an iOS app (3 screens) against #2 (5 screens) gave 111
resolved, 113 of the earlier issues sitting on the 2 screens #3 skipped.

Screens are now recognised by the elements on them. When the builds scanned a different
number of screens, issues on an earlier screen no later screen resembles are listed as not
confirmed resolved, and issues on a later screen with no earlier counterpart as first
scanned, not new. With as many screens in each build they correspond, and a screen with
nothing left was fixed. The same comparison now reads 1 resolved, 113 not confirmed.

…ties, not a tool

The App Accessibility lists (the account's projects, a project's builds, manual reports)
are documented access-key reads with nothing to add on top, which is what the capability
registry is for. They ship as an `app_accessibility` product in
capability/app_accessibility.capability-index.json, and listAppAccessibilityReports goes.

- Three read capabilities, authored from the controllers: list_app_accessibility_projects,
  list_app_accessibility_builds and list_manual_app_accessibility_reports, on the
  project, build and manual_report entities. Routing terms (app accessibility, workflow
  analyzer, manual accessibility report, …) settle those questions on the product without
  asking; bare "accessibility" stays shared with TRA.
- Guidance carries what the API does not say: the projects list reads `page` (not the
  documented `page_number`) and has no page-size ceiling; build_name only searches the 500
  newest builds; an empty list answers 404; manual reports' `created_between` is echoed
  but never filters, and `user_id` applies to admins only, so neither is offered.
- check-contract.py is clean, and every capability was invoked live through
  invokeCapability: projects, builds (plain and by name) and manual reports return what
  the index declares; the 404 and 400 answers match their guidance.
- The manual-report and project-search messages point at the capability functions; the
  project search's error handling stays, tested on the native-build path that uses it.

Review: #505

No security issues found. The only CI status is CodeRabbit (skipped), so nothing is machine-verified.

Medium

  • app-report-fetcher.ts anySdkSession / nativeBuildProject / appAutomateBuildName swallow every non-OK response. A 401/429/5xx makes an SDK build look native, or reports "not among newest builds". buildOfSdkSession already separates 404 from other failures. Do the same here.
  • (unverified) buildOfNativeBuild maps the native build to its accessibility build by project name plus exact row.name === name. If names differ or collide, the result is a false "accessibility was not on" or the wrong build. Confirm against the API or match on a stable id.
  • (unverified) buildRequestBody / triggerEspressoBuild: the accessibility parameter name is assumed, and testObservability: true is force-enabled for Espresso with no opt-in or mention in the tool output.

Low-Medium

  • appAutomateBuildName scans at most 300 builds, so older builds hit "not among newest builds".

Low

  • appAutomateIds only accepts 40-hex ids and an exact host.
  • Missing tests: non-404 failures in the lookups, build-name pagination, nativeFramework regex edges, fup_capped, non-matching host, accessibility default. The new test file isn't Prettier-formatted.

AI-assisted read-only review of the diff. Items marked (unverified) were not checked against the live APIs.

…hat the run turns on

From Savio's and Shreyas's review:
- Mapping an App Automate link: the session list, the native build lookup and
  the build list now fail with their status on anything but a 404 (checked
  live: a native build lists no sessions, an unknown id is a 404 on each, a bad
  key 401). A 401 or 5xx no longer reads as "native build", "not an Espresso
  or XCUITest build" or "not among the newest builds".
- An Espresso run with accessibility says it turns Test Observability on, which
  the build request does for Espresso's accessibility report.
- runAppTestsOnBrowserStack keeps main's description (297 chars); the
  accessibility argument describes itself.

Thanks @sarve-shreyas. Addressed in eec270c (with the updated #504 merged in):

  • Medium (lookups): checked live first. A native build lists no sessions (200, []). An id App Automate doesn't know answers 404 on the session list and on each framework's build API (each framework's API also answers 404 for the other's builds). A bad key is 401. So anySdkSession, nativeBuildProject and appAutomateBuildName now treat only a 404 as "not this one" and throw anything else with its status, the same way buildOfSdkSession does. Tests cover a 401 from the session list, a 429 from the native build API and a 503 from the build list.
  • (unverified) name-based mapping: the App Accessibility build rows carry no App Automate build id. Their fields are th_build_id, build_number, name, normalised_name, project_id, app_details, session_data and the counts. So project plus exact name is the link the API offers. The mapping was run live end to end on a real Espresso build with accessibility on, from its App Automate link to its App Accessibility build.
  • (unverified) accessibility / testObservability: the same live run is what showed both are needed. With accessibility: true in the Espresso build request, the App Accessibility build appeared. testObservability: true is sent only when accessibility is on, and the run-started message now says it's turned on.
  • Low-Medium (300 builds): no App Automate endpoint gives a build's name by id. I checked builds/{id}.json and {framework}/v2/builds/{id}, and the details have the project but no name. So the newest-first scan stays. The scan stops early in the usual case, and a miss points to the build's App Accessibility dashboard link, which resolves without the scan.
  • Also from Savio's review: runAppTestsOnBrowserStack keeps main's description (297 chars).

Build passes: lint, prettier, 1432 tests, tsc.

…s missing

From Shreyas's review:
- A dashboard screens page that fails after the first no longer returns the
  part read as the whole: the report is read from the Manual Reports API in
  full instead.
- The Manual Reports API's issues pages fail with their page and status rather
  than counting fewer issues; the report lookup treats only a 404 as an unknown
  report (checked live: unknown id 404, bad key 401).
- A report with more screens than the page limit says how many were read, as an
  App Automate build does.

…en the compare

From Savio's review:
- The accessibility routing line in the server instructions is removed (every
  session paid for it, and it repeated what the tools' own descriptions say).
  The "offer to write tests" directive goes with it, pending a product call.

From Shreyas's review:
- A comparison refuses a build with more scanned screens than are read, as the
  issues on the rest would count as resolved or new.
- Within one test, a screen that shares half of the smaller screen's elements
  with a screen of the other build is the same screen, so the fixes on a
  mostly fixed screen are resolved rather than "not confirmed". The sheet's
  builds (#2 and #3 of the iOS app) compare as before.
- The build before a build: a build missing from its project's list, or a
  project not found by name, is an error rather than "its project's first".
- A dashboard link whose name matches no build resolves to the one build with
  its number, and refuses to guess between several.

Also: fetchAccessibilityIssues points at searchCapability for the app lists,
and docs/TOOLS.md lists the three App Accessibility capabilities.
