## Description

Systematically explore and test a mobile app on iOS/Android with agent-device to find bugs, UX issues, and other problems. Use when asked to "dogfood", "QA", "exploratory test", "find issues", "bug hunt", or "test this app" on mobile. Produces a structured report with reproducible evidence: screenshots, optional repro videos, and detailed steps for every issue.

# Dogfood (agent-device)

Systematically explore a mobile app, find issues, and produce a report with full reproduction evidence for every finding.

## Setup

Only the **Target app** is required. Everything else has sensible defaults.

| Parameter            | Default                                                     | Example override                             |
| -------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------- |
| **Target app**       | _(required)_                                                | `Settings`, `com.example.app`, deep link URL |
| **Platform**         | Infer from user context; otherwise ask (`ios` or `android`) | `--platform ios`                             |
| **Session name**     | Slugified app/platform (for example `settings-ios`)         | `--session my-session`                       |
| **Output directory** | `./dogfood-output/`                                         | `Output directory: /tmp/mobile-qa`           |
| **Scope**            | Full app                                                    | `Focus on onboarding and profile`            |
| **Authentication**   | None                                                        | `Sign in to user@example.com`                |

If the user gives enough context to start, begin immediately with defaults. Ask follow-up only when a required detail is missing (for example platform or credentials).

Prefer direct `agent-device` binary when available.

## Workflow

```
1. Initialize    Set up session, output dirs, report file
2. Launch/Auth   Open app and sign in if needed
3. Orient        Capture initial snapshot and map navigation
4. Explore       Systematically test flows and states
5. Document      Record reproducible evidence per issue
6. Wrap up       Reconcile summary, close session
```

### 1. Initialize
