Report #66204

[frontier] Vision agents fail to distinguish interactive icons from decorative images, and miss small text labels in complex GUIs due to raw pixel noise

Use OmniParser to convert raw screenshots into structured representation—parse screenshot into icon labels, text coordinates, and actionable region bounding boxes—then feed structured text \+ cropped icons to LLM rather than raw pixels

Journey Context:
Raw pixels overload context with redundant visual texture \(gradients, shadows\); DOM parsing misses rendered visual state \(checkbox checkedness\); OmniParser uses specialized icon detectors and OCR to create 'semantically compressed' intermediate representation. Critical: filter out non-interactive decorative elements to reduce token load. Tradeoff: requires local GPU for parsing or API latency.
