Click target

Updated: July 2026

A click target is the UI element interacted with at a key moment, recorded as a plain-language description plus its x and y coordinates.

Click targets live inside each key moment in the markdown twin. The click_target field pairs an element name with coordinates, for example { element: "Export CSV button", x: 812, y: 274 }. This is what makes a flow reproducible: the agent learns not just that a click happened, but what was clicked and exactly where.

For example, in the Export CSV recording the click target for the failing action is the Export CSV button at its coordinates on the payouts dashboard. The agent maps the reported bug to a specific control instead of guessing which button the narrator meant.

A key moment without an interaction (a spinner that keeps spinning) carries a null click target, so absence is recorded as clearly as a click.
