Why not cdp snapshot?

What do you mean? We use CDP page snapshots extensively to get full html across frames but it's not nearly enough on its own, there are lots of checks still needed for individual OOPIFs or elements.

You can get all of that pure snapshot.

There are no extra checks needed it's by a significant margin the most reliable method to see current state.

I run snapshot at 10-20fps though plus the same for parallel image capture.

I've been wondering if I should release just this part of my system open source seems like I'm not alone in how complex this all is.

I could launch yet another automation framework!

you still need separate calls to get the AXTree with full computed aria properties, and a bunch of Runtime.evaluate calls to scan all the dynamically-added event listeners.

Snapshot is all you need. I get all of the info you describe in pure snapshot. Automation works fine.

you cannot get the list of bound onclick handlers with a snapshot
