Research direction
Start from the desktop_inspect accessibility path and find where DESKTOP_ERROR: ...inconsistent response evidence: window-context window title is raised — the mismatch is between the title read via the Accessibility API and the window-context title. Read the linked Oct 6 comment on this issue for a reproduction, and review #156 to see what pixel-mode snapshotting already covers so you scope the fix to accessibility snapshots. Done means an accessibility-mode inspection of a Chrome window whose title changes mid-run returns without the inconsistent-evidence error, with element-based actions working off that snapshot.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
While smoke-testing a timeline fix in channel streaming-message-overlap, desktop_inspect in accessibility mode failed repeatedly on a Google Chrome window (window 474, title "Ace") that pixels mode captured fine:
DESKTOP_ERROR: The desktop observation provider returned inconsistent response evidence: window-context window title..
At the time (before #156), without an action snapshot the agent could not click into the app, so the smoke test moved to a Playwright-driven Chrome for Testing outside Ace's tools.
Status (Oct 6)
The Accessibility-mode title mismatch is not fixed; it reproduced again on Oct 6 (details). #156 mitigates it for pointer input: pixel inspection now returns a single-use snapshot that authorizes exact-window point clicks, scrolls and drags. Element-based actions, text selection and insertion still need a working Accessibility snapshot.
