+
+## How Refs Work
+
+Traditional approach:
+```
+Full DOM/HTML → AI parses → CSS selector → Action (~3000-5000 tokens)
+```
+
+agent-browser approach:
+```
+Compact snapshot → @refs assigned → Direct interaction (~200-400 tokens)
+```
+
+## The Snapshot Command
+
+```bash
+# Basic snapshot (shows page structure)
+agent-browser snapshot
+
+# Interactive snapshot (-i flag) - RECOMMENDED
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+```
+
+### Snapshot Output Format
+
+```
+Page: Example Site - Home
+URL: https://example.com
+
+@e1 [header]
+  @e2 [nav]
+    @e3 [a] "Home"
+    @e4 [a] "Products"
+    @e5 [a] "About"
+  @e6 [button] "Sign In"
+
+@e7 [main]
+  @e8 [h1] "Welcome"
+  @e9 [form]
+    @e10 [input type="email"] placeholder="Email"
+    @e11 [input type="password"] placeholder="Password"
+    @e12 [button type="submit"] "Log In"
+
+@e13 [footer]
+  @e14 [a] "Privacy Policy"
+```
+
+## Using Refs
+
+Once you have refs, interact directly:
+
+```bash
+# Click the "Sign In" button
+agent-browser click @e6
+
+# Fill email input
+agent-browser fill @e10 "user@example.com"
+
+# Fill password
+agent-browser fill @e11 "password123"
+
+# Submit the form
+agent-browser click @e12
+```
+
+## Ref Lifecycle
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Refs are invalidated when the page changes!
+
+```bash
+# Get initial snapshot
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+# @e1 [button] "Next"
+
+# Click triggers page change
+agent-browser click @e1
+
+# MUST re-snapshot to get new refs!
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+# @e1 [h1] "Page 2"  ← Different element now!
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Always Snapshot Before Interacting
+
+```bash
+# CORRECT
+agent-browser open https://example.com
+agent-browser snapshot -i          # Get refs first
+agent-browser click @e1            # Use ref
+
+# WRONG
+agent-browser open https://example.com
+agent-browser click @e1            # Ref doesn't exist yet!
+```
+
+### 2. Re-Snapshot After Navigation
+
+```bash
+agent-browser click @e5            # Navigates to new page
+agent-browser snapshot -i          # Get new refs
+agent-browser click @e1            # Use new refs
+```
+
+### 3. Re-Snapshot After Dynamic Changes
+
+```bash
+agent-browser click @e1            # Opens dropdown
+agent-browser snapshot -i          # See dropdown items
+agent-browser click @e7            # Select item
+```
+
+### 4. Snapshot Specific Regions
+
+For complex pages, snapshot specific areas:
+
+```bash
+# Snapshot just the form
+agent-browser snapshot @e9
+```
+
+## Ref Notation Details
+
+```
+@e1 [tag type="value"] "text content" placeholder="hint"
+│    │   │             │               │
+│    │   │             │               └─ Additional attributes
+│    │   │             └─ Visible text
+│    │   └─ Key attributes shown
+│    └─ HTML tag name
+└─ Unique ref ID
+```
+
+### Common Patterns
+
+```
+@e1 [button] "Submit"                    # Button with text
+@e2 [input type="email"]                 # Email input
+@e3 [input type="password"]              # Password input
+@e4 [a href="/page"] "Link Text"         # Anchor link
+@e5 [select]                             # Dropdown
+@e6 [textarea] placeholder="Message"     # Text area
+@e7 [div class="modal"]                  # Container (when relevant)
+@e8 [img alt="Logo"]                     # Image
+@e9 [checkbox] checked                   # Checked checkbox
+@e10 [radio] selected                    # Selected radio
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Ref not found" Error
+
+```bash
+# Ref may have changed - re-snapshot
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+```
+
+### Element Not Visible in Snapshot
+
+```bash
+# Scroll to reveal element
+agent-browser scroll --bottom
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+
+# Or wait for dynamic content
+agent-browser wait 1000
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+```
+
+### Too Many Elements
+
+```bash
+# Snapshot specific container
+agent-browser snapshot @e5
+
+# Or use get text for content-only extraction
+agent-browser get text @e5
+```

+# Video Recording
+
+Capture browser automation as video for debugging, documentation, or verification.

+- [Limitations](#limitations)
+
+## Basic Recording
+
+```bash
+# Start recording
+agent-browser record start ./demo.webm
+
+# Perform actions
+agent-browser open https://example.com
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser click @e1
+agent-browser fill @e2 "test input"
+
+# Stop and save
+agent-browser record stop
+```
+
+## Recording Commands
+
+```bash
+# Start recording to file
+agent-browser record start ./output.webm
+
+# Stop current recording
+agent-browser record stop
+
+# Restart with new file (stops current + starts new)
+agent-browser record restart ./take2.webm
+```
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Debugging Failed Automation
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Record automation for debugging
+
+agent-browser record start ./debug-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).webm
+
+# Run your automation
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser click @e1 || {
+    echo "Click failed - check recording"
+    agent-browser record stop
+    exit 1
+}
+
+agent-browser record stop
+```
+
+### Documentation Generation
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Record workflow for documentation
+
+agent-browser record start ./docs/how-to-login.webm
+
+agent-browser open https://app.example.com/login
+agent-browser wait 1000  # Pause for visibility
+
+agent-browser snapshot -i
+agent-browser fill @e1 "demo@example.com"
+agent-browser wait 500
+
+agent-browser fill @e2 "password"
+agent-browser wait 500
+
+agent-browser click @e3
+agent-browser wait --load networkidle
+agent-browser wait 1000  # Show result
+
+agent-browser record stop
+```
+
+### CI/CD Test Evidence
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# Record E2E test runs for CI artifacts
+
+TEST_NAME="${1:-e2e-test}"
+RECORDING_DIR="./test-recordings"
+mkdir -p "$RECORDING_DIR"
+
+agent-browser record start "$RECORDING_DIR/$TEST_NAME-$(date +%s).webm"
+
+# Run test
+if run_e2e_test; then
+    echo "Test passed"
+else
+    echo "Test failed - recording saved"
+fi
+
+agent-browser record stop
+```
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### 1. Add Pauses for Clarity
+
+```bash
+# Slow down for human viewing
+agent-browser click @e1
+agent-browser wait 500  # Let viewer see result
+```
+
+### 2. Use Descriptive Filenames
+
+```bash
+# Include context in filename
+agent-browser record start ./recordings/login-flow-2024-01-15.webm
+agent-browser record start ./recordings/checkout-test-run-42.webm
+```
+
+### 3. Handle Recording in Error Cases
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+set -e
+
+cleanup() {
+    agent-browser record stop 2>/dev/null || true
+    agent-browser close 2>/dev/null || true
+}
+trap cleanup EXIT
+
+agent-browser record start ./automation.webm
+# ... automation steps ...
+```
+
+### 4. Combine with Screenshots
+
+```bash
+# Record video AND capture key frames
+agent-browser record start ./flow.webm
+
+agent-browser open https://example.com
+agent-browser screenshot ./screenshots/step1-homepage.png
+
+agent-browser click @e1
+agent-browser screenshot ./screenshots/step2-after-click.png
+
+agent-browser record stop
+```
+
+## Output Format
+
+- Default format: WebM (VP8/VP9 codec)
+- Compatible with all modern browsers and video players
+- Compressed but high quality
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Recording adds slight overhead to automation
+- Large recordings can consume significant disk space
+- Some headless environments may have codec limitations
