-## Analysis Workflow
-
-### Phase 1: Baseline Capture
-```javascript
-// Capture baseline screenshots for UI components
-const baselineConfig = {
-  url: 'https://app.example.com',
-  pages: [
-    { name: 'dashboard', path: '/dashboard', viewports: ['desktop', 'tablet', 'mobile'] },
-    { name: 'user-profile', path: '/profile', viewports: ['desktop', 'mobile'] },
-    { name: 'settings', path: '/settings', viewports: ['desktop'] }
-  ],
-  browsers: ['chromium', 'firefox', 'webkit'],
-  capture_options: {
-    full_page: true,
-    mask_dynamic_content: ['.timestamp', '.user-avatar'],
-    wait_for_animations: true,
-    wait_for_fonts: true
-  }
-};
-
-// Capture baselines
-const baselines = await captureBaselines({
-  config: baselineConfig,
-  storage: 'aqe/visual/baselines',
-  compression: 'lossless'
-});
-```
-
-### Phase 2: Visual Comparison
-```javascript
-// Compare current screenshots against baselines
-const visualComparison = {
-  baseline_set: 'v2.0.0',
-  current_screenshots: captureCurrentState(baselineConfig),
-  comparison_strategy: {
-    algorithm: 'ai-visual-diff', // pixel-diff, structural-similarity, ai-visual-diff
-    sensitivity: 0.1, // 0-1, lower = more sensitive
-    ignore_antialiasing: true,
-    ignore_colors: false,
-    semantic_understanding: true
-  },
-  thresholds: {
-    pixel_diff_threshold: 0.05, // 5% pixels changed
-    structural_similarity_threshold: 0.95, // 95% similar
-    acceptable_diff_regions: 3 // Max number of different regions
-  }
-};
-
-// Execute comparison
-const comparisonResults = await compareVisuals({
-  baseline: baselines,
-  current: visualComparison.current_screenshots,
-  strategy: visualComparison.comparison_strategy,
-  thresholds: visualComparison.thresholds
-});
-```
-
-### Phase 3: Regression Analysis

-      'missing-element',
-      'new-element',
-      'size-change',
-      'position-change'
-    ]
-  }),
-  severity_assessment: {
-    critical: [], // Blocking issues
-    high: [],    // Major visual regressions
-    medium: [],  // Minor visual changes
-    low: []      // Acceptable variations
-  }
-};
-
-// Generate regression report
-const regressionReport = generateRegressionReport({

-## Coordination Protocol
-
-This agent uses **AQE hooks (Agentic QE native hooks)** for coordination (zero external dependencies, 100-500x faster).
-
-**Automatic Lifecycle Hooks:**
-```typescript
-// Called automatically by BaseAgent

-**Event Bus Integration:**
-```typescript
-// Subscribe to visual testing events
-this.registerEventHandler({

-  handler: async (event) => {
-    await this.notificationAgent.notifyTeam('New visual baseline created');
-  }
-});
-```
-
-**Advanced Verification (Optional):**
-```typescript
-// Use VerificationHookManager for comprehensive validation
-const hookManager = new VerificationHookManager(this.memoryStore);
-const verification = await hookManager.executePreTaskVerification({
-  task: 'visual-regression-test',
-  context: {
-    requiredVars: ['BASELINE_VERSION', 'BROWSER'],
-    minMemoryMB: 2048,
-    requiredKeys: ['aqe/visual/baselines', 'aqe/visual/test-config']
-  }
-});
-```
-
-## Learning Protocol (Phase 6 - Option C Implementation)
-
-**⚠️ MANDATORY**: When executed via Claude Code Task tool, you MUST call learning MCP tools to persist learning data.
-
-### Required Learning Actions (Call AFTER Task Completion)
-
-**1. Store Learning Experience:**
-```typescript
-// Call this MCP tool after completing your task
 mcp__agentic_qe__learning_store_experience({
   agentId: "qe-visual-tester",
   taskType: "visual-testing",
-  reward: 0.95,  // Your assessment of task success (0-1 scale)
+  reward: 0.95,
   outcome: {
-    // Your actual results (agent-specific)
     regressionsDetected: 3,
     accuracy: 0.98,
     falsePositives: 1,
     executionTime: 8500
   },
   metadata: {
-    // Additional context (agent-specific)
     algorithm: "ai-visual-diff",
     threshold: 0.95,
     accessibilityChecked: true
@@ -347,943 +100,86 @@ mcp__agentic_qe__learning_store_experience({
 })
 ```
 
-**2. Store Q-Values for Your Strategy:**
-```typescript
-// Store Q-value for the strategy you used
-mcp__agentic_qe__learning_store_qvalue({
-  agentId: "qe-visual-tester",
-  stateKey: "visual-testing-state",
-  actionKey: "ai-screenshot-comparison",
-  qValue: 0.85,  // Expected value of this approach (based on results)

-    comparisonStrategy: "ai-visual-diff",
-    accuracy: 0.98,
-    sensitivity: 0.95
-  }
-})
-```
-
-**3. Store Successful Patterns:**
-```typescript
-// If you discovered a useful pattern, store it
+Store patterns when discovered:
+```javascript
 mcp__agentic_qe__learning_store_pattern({
-  agentId: "qe-visual-tester",
   pattern: "AI-powered visual diff with 95% threshold detects regressions with <2% false positives",
-  confidence: 0.95,  // How confident you are (0-1)
+  confidence: 0.95,
   domain: "visual-regression",

-    detectionAccuracy: 0.98
+    detectionAccuracy: 0.98,
+    falsePositiveRate: 0.02
   }
 })
 ```
 
-### Learning Query (Use at Task Start)
-
-**Before starting your task**, query for past learnings:
-
-```typescript
-// Query for successful experiences
-const pastLearnings = await mcp__agentic_qe__learning_query({
-  agentId: "qe-visual-tester",
-  taskType: "visual-testing",
-  minReward: 0.8,  // Only get successful experiences
-  queryType: "all",
-  limit: 10
-});
-
-// Use the insights to optimize your current approach
-if (pastLearnings.success && pastLearnings.data) {
-  const { experiences, qValues, patterns } = pastLearnings.data;
-
-  // Find best-performing strategy
-  const bestStrategy = qValues
-    .filter(qv => qv.state_key === "visual-testing-state")
-    .sort((a, b) => b.q_value - a.q_value)[0];
-
-  console.log(`Using learned best strategy: ${bestStrategy.action_key} (Q-value: ${bestStrategy.q_value})`);
-
-  // Check for relevant patterns
-  const relevantPatterns = patterns
-    .filter(p => p.domain === "visual-regression")
-    .sort((a, b) => b.confidence * b.success_rate - a.confidence * a.success_rate);
-
-  if (relevantPatterns.length > 0) {
-    console.log(`Applying pattern: ${relevantPatterns[0].pattern}`);
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### Success Criteria for Learning
-
-**Reward Assessment (0-1 scale):**
-- **1.0**: Perfect execution (100% regressions detected, 0 false positives, <10s)
-- **0.9**: Excellent (99%+ detected, <1% false positives, <20s)
-- **0.7**: Good (95%+ detected, <5% false positives, <40s)
-- **0.5**: Acceptable (90%+ detected, completed successfully)
-- **<0.5**: Needs improvement (Missed regressions, many false positives)
-
-**When to Call Learning Tools:**
-- ✅ **ALWAYS** after completing main task
-- ✅ **ALWAYS** after detecting significant findings
-- ✅ **ALWAYS** after generating recommendations
-- ✅ When discovering new effective strategies
-- ✅ When achieving exceptional performance metrics
-
-## Learning Integration (Phase 6)
-
-This agent integrates with the **Learning Engine** to continuously improve visual regression detection and reduce false positives.
-
-### Learning Protocol
-
-```typescript
-import { LearningEngine } from '@/learning/LearningEngine';
-
-// Initialize learning engine
-const learningEngine = new LearningEngine({
-  agentId: 'qe-visual-tester',
-  taskType: 'visual-testing',
-  domain: 'visual-testing',
-  learningRate: 0.01,
-  epsilon: 0.1,
-  discountFactor: 0.95
-});
-
-await learningEngine.initialize();
-
-// Record visual testing episode
-await learningEngine.recordEpisode({
-  state: {
-    page: 'dashboard',
-    browser: 'chromium',
-    viewport: 'desktop',
-    baselineVersion: 'v2.0.0'
-  },
-  action: {
-    comparisonAlgorithm: 'ai-visual-diff',
-    threshold: 0.95,
-    ignoreRegions: ['timestamp', 'user-avatar']
-  },
-  reward: visualRegressionConfirmed ? 1.0 : (falsePositive ? -0.5 : 0.5),
-  nextState: {
-    regressionsDetected: 2,
-    falsePositives: 0,
-    missedRegressions: 0
-  }
-});
-
-// Learn from visual testing outcomes
-await learningEngine.learn();
-
-// Get learned visual comparison settings
-const prediction = await learningEngine.predict({
-  page: 'dashboard',
-  browser: 'chromium',
-  viewport: 'desktop'
-});
-```
-
-### Reward Function
-
-```typescript
-function calculateVisualTestingReward(outcome: VisualTestOutcome): number {
-  let reward = 0;
-
-  // Reward for detecting actual regressions
-  reward += outcome.truePositives * 1.0;
-
-  // Penalty for false positives (wasted effort)
-  reward -= outcome.falsePositives * 0.5;
-
-  // Large penalty for missing regressions (false negatives)
-  reward -= outcome.falseNegatives * 2.0;
-
-  // Reward for correct negative (no regression correctly identified)
-  reward += outcome.trueNegatives * 0.2;
-
-  // Bonus for high accuracy
-  const accuracy = (outcome.truePositives + outcome.trueNegatives) /
-                   (outcome.truePositives + outcome.trueNegatives +
-                    outcome.falsePositives + outcome.falseNegatives);
-  if (accuracy > 0.95) {
-    reward += 0.5;
-  }
-
-  return reward;
-}
-```
-
-### Learning Metrics
-
-Track learning progress:
-- **Detection Accuracy**: Percentage of correctly identified regressions
-- **False Positive Rate**: Incorrectly flagged differences
-- **False Negative Rate**: Missed visual regressions
-- **Algorithm Selection**: Optimal comparison algorithm for each page type
-- **Threshold Optimization**: Learned thresholds per page/browser combination
-
-```bash
-# View learning metrics
-aqe learn status --agent qe-visual-tester
-
-# Export learning history
-aqe learn export --agent qe-visual-tester --format json
-
-# Analyze detection accuracy
-aqe learn analyze --agent qe-visual-tester --metric accuracy
-```
-
-### Agent Collaboration
-- **QE Test Executor**: Integrates visual tests into test suites
-- **QE Quality Gate**: Blocks deployments on visual regressions
-- **QE Test Generator**: Generates visual test cases automatically
-- **QE Performance Tester**: Correlates visual issues with performance
-- **Fleet Commander**: Reports visual testing resource usage

-    alpha: 0.1, // Opacity of diff overlay
-    diffColor: [255, 0, 0], // Red diff color
-    diffMask: false
-  }
-};
-
-// Execute pixel comparison
-const pixelDiffResult = await compareScreenshots({
-  baseline: baselineImage,
-  current: currentImage,
-  algorithm: pixelDiff
-});
-```
-
-### Structural Similarity (SSIM)
-```javascript
-// Perceptual similarity comparison
-const structuralComparison = {
-  algorithm: 'ssim',
-  options: {
-    window_size: 11,
-    k1: 0.01,
-    k2: 0.03,
-    luminance_weight: 1.0,

-  }
-};
-
-// Execute AI comparison
-const aiDiffResult = await compareScreenshots({
