Report #64043

[frontier] Agents process sensitive visual data \(screenshots of emails, personal photos\) without privacy controls

Implement visual redaction pipelines that detect and mask PII in screenshots before LLM processing, using local OCR and regex matching on the client side

Journey Context:
Sending raw screenshots of user desktops to cloud LLMs leaks sensitive information \(emails, API keys in terminals, personal photos\). Frontier implementations now use client-side PII detection \(local OCR \+ NER models\) to redact sensitive regions \(blacking out email addresses, token strings\) before sending to the LLM. This preserves utility of the UI while protecting privacy.
