v0.20.7

Highlights

• HarmonyOS support: Automate HarmonyOS devices through HDC, including discovery, snapshots, app lifecycle, HAP deployment, interactions, gestures, keyboard actions, logs, performance sampling, screen recording, and diagnostics. [#1683](#1683)

• Start working in fewer turns: open --foreground can attach to the active app on an unambiguous iOS simulator and return the first interactive snapshot immediately. [#1670](#1670), [#1671](#1671), [#1693](#1693)

• Faster CLI startup: Common warm commands are up to 54% faster by keeping HTTP and ICU initialization off the local CLI startup path. appstate improved from roughly 146 ms to 68 ms in benchmarks. [#1681](#1681)

• Better iOS automation: snapshot --actions exposes custom accessibility actions on merged elements, such as React Native feed cards. Hidden-keyboard text entry now waits for the complete text commit before reporting success. [#1665](#1665), [#1676](#1676)

• More reliable Android interactions: Snapshot recovery now retires unhealthy helper sessions, masked fills return target-bound verification evidence, and free-text shell arguments are safely quoted. [#1708](#1708), [#1645](#1645)

• Stronger cloud and remote-device support: BrowserStack and AWS Device Farm iOS sessions can capture snapshots reliably, while cloud fills wait for evidence that the intended field received focus. Concurrent remote connections are isolated correctly. [#1666](#1666), [#1675](#1675)

• Modern MCP compatibility: The MCP server supports the stateless 2026-07-28 revision alongside legacy handshake clients, including discovery and cacheable tool metadata. [#1678](#1678)

• Safer targeting and recovery: Mutating selectors now reject genuinely distinct ambiguous matches instead of silently choosing one. Device inventory, logs, and network capture also moved onto request-bound platform runtimes, improving cancellation, recovery, and process-relaunch handling. [#1667](#1667), [#1699](#1699), [#1701](#1701), [#1702](#1702)
