• 371 tests passing
• URL resolver: 73% average (7/10 auto-detect, 3/4 contact, 3/4 products)
• CLI fixed - curllm_core.cli_orchestrator working
• Human-like behavior - human_delay, human_type, human_scroll helpers

• LLM_DSL_QUICK_REFERENCE.md - Quick reference card

Overview

This plan outlines the migration from hardcoded selectors/keywords to LLM-DSL architecture.

Architecture Changes

Before (Hardcoded)

# Hardcoded selector
element = document.querySelector('input[name="email"]')

# Hardcoded keyword list
for field in ["name", "email", "phone"]:
    # ...

After (LLM-DSL)

# LLM-driven element finding
element = await dsl.execute("find_element", {
    "purpose": "email_input",
    "context": page_context
})

# LLM-driven field detection
fields = await dsl.execute("analyze_form", {
    "form_context": form_html,
    "detect_purposes": True
})
for field in fields.data:
    # ...

Migration Complete

All high-priority files have been refactored. Remaining items are:

• CAPTCHA service patterns (acceptable)
• Element type selectors like input, form, a[href] (semantic, kept)
• Semantic concept groups (proper LLM-DSL pattern)

1. Phase 1: Core Modules (atoms.py, executor.py)
   • Ensure all atomic functions are LLM-queryable
   • Add fallback strategies for each function
2. Phase 2: Form Handling (form_fill.py, field_filler.py)
   • Replace hardcoded field keywords with LLM detection
   • Use semantic analysis for form understanding
3. Phase 3: URL Resolution (url_resolver.py, dom_helpers.py)
   • Replace hardcoded URL patterns with LLM analysis
   • Use page structure analysis for navigation
4. Phase 4: Orchestrators (orchestrator.py, steps.py)
   • Integrate LLM-DSL for all element interactions
   • Add context-aware fallbacks

Testing

After each phase:

1. Run make test to verify no regressions
2. Run example scripts to verify functionality
3. Compare success rates before/after
