## Maintenance Guidelines
### When to Update Each Document
**E6-z3ed-cli-design.md**: Update when:
- Architecture changes (new components, flow changes)
- Design decisions made (document rationale)
- Major features completed (update "Current State")
**E6-z3ed-reference.md**: Update when:
- New commands added
- RPC methods added/changed

- Better examples found
**Status Documents**: Update on:
- Weekly basis (PROJECT_STATUS_OCT2.md)
- When priorities shift (NEXT_PRIORITIES_OCT2.md)
- After work sessions (WORK_SUMMARY_OCT2.md)
### Avoiding Future Bloat
**Don't create new docs for**:
- Session summaries → Use git commit messages or issue comments
- Progress reports → Update E6-z3ed-implementation-plan.md
- Technical investigations → Add to E6-z3ed-reference.md § relevant section
- Status snapshots → Update PROJECT_STATUS_OCT2.md
**Do create new docs for**:
- Major new subsystems (e.g., E6-policy-framework.md if complex)
- Platform-specific guides (e.g., E6-windows-setup.md if needed)
- Specialized workflows (e.g., E6-ci-cd-integration.md)
**Then consolidate** into main docs after 1-2 weeks once content stabilizes.
## Next Steps
1. **Review**: Check that no critical information was lost in consolidation
2. **Test**: Try following guides as a new user would
3. **Iterate**: Update based on feedback
4. **Maintain**: Keep docs current as code evolves
## Verification Checklist
- [x] All technical content from archived docs is in E6-z3ed-reference.md
- [x] Design decisions from multiple docs consolidated in E6-z3ed-cli-design.md
- [x] Clear hierarchy established (design → reference → implementation plan)

# z3ed CLI Architecture & Design
## 1. Overview ## 1. Overview
This document outlines a design for the evolution of `z3ed`, the command-line interface for the YAZE project. The goal is to transform `z3ed` from a collection of utility commands into a powerful, scriptable, and extensible tool for both manual and automated ROM hacking, with a forward-looking approach to AI-driven generative development. This document is the **source of truth** for the z3ed CLI architecture and design. It outlines the evolution of `z3ed`, the command-line interface for the YAZE project, from a collection of utility commands into a powerful, scriptable, and extensible tool for both manual and automated ROM hacking, with full support for AI-driven generative development.
### 1.1. Current State **Related Documents**:
- **[E6-z3ed-implementation-plan.md](E6-z3ed-implementation-plan.md)** - Implementation tracker, task backlog, and roadmap
- **[E6-z3ed-reference.md](E6-z3ed-reference.md)** - Technical reference: commands, APIs, troubleshooting
- **[README.md](README.md)** - Quick overview and documentation index
`z3ed` has evolved significantly. The initial limitations regarding scope, inconsistent structure, basic TUI, and limited scriptability have largely been addressed through the implementation of resource-oriented commands, modular TUI components, and structured output. The focus has shifted towards building a robust foundation for AI-driven generative hacking. ### 1.1. Current State (October 2, 2025)
`z3ed` has successfully implemented its core infrastructure and is **production-ready on macOS**:
**✅ Completed Features**:
- **Resource-Oriented CLI**: Clean `z3ed <resource> <action>` command structure
- **Resource Catalogue**: Machine-readable API specs in YAML/JSON for AI consumption
- **Acceptance Workflow**: Full proposal lifecycle (create → review → accept/reject → commit)
- **ImGuiTestHarness (IT-01)**: gRPC-based GUI automation with 6 RPC methods
- **CLI Agent Test (IT-02)**: Natural language prompts → automated GUI testing
- **ProposalDrawer GUI**: Integrated review interface in YAZE editor
- **ROM Sandbox Manager**: Isolated testing environment for safe experimentation
- **Proposal Registry**: Cross-session proposal tracking with disk persistence
**🔄 In Progress**:
- **E2E Validation**: Testing complete workflow (80% done, window detection needs fix)
**📋 Planned Next**:
- **Policy Evaluation Framework (AW-04)**: YAML-based constraints for proposal acceptance
- **Windows Cross-Platform Testing**: Validate on Windows with vcpkg
- **Production Readiness**: Telemetry, screenshot implementation, expanded test coverage
## 2. Design Goals ## 2. Design Goals
The proposed redesign focuses on three core pillars: The z3ed CLI is built on three core pillars:
1. **Power & Usability for ROM Hackers**: Empower users with fine-grained control over all aspects of the ROM directly from the command line. 1. **Power & Usability for ROM Hackers**: Empower users with fine-grained control over all aspects of the ROM directly from the command line, supporting both interactive exploration and scripted automation.
2. **Testability & Automation**: Provide robust commands for validating ROM integrity and automating complex testing scenarios.
3. **AI & Generative Hacking**: Establish a powerful, scriptable API that an AI agent (MCP) can use to perform complex, generative tasks on the ROM. 2. **Testability & Automation**: Provide robust commands for validating ROM integrity, automating complex testing scenarios, and enabling reproducible workflows through scripting.
3. **AI & Generative Hacking**: Establish a powerful, scriptable API that an AI agent (LLM/MCP) can use to perform complex, generative tasks on the ROM, with human oversight and approval workflows.
### 2.1. Key Architectural Decisions
**Resource-Oriented Command Structure**: Adopted `z3ed <resource> <action>` pattern (similar to kubectl, gcloud) for clarity and extensibility.
**Machine-Readable API**: All commands documented in `docs/api/z3ed-resources.yaml` with structured schemas for AI consumption.
**Proposal-Based Workflow**: AI-generated changes are sandboxed and tracked as "proposals" requiring human review and acceptance.
**gRPC Test Harness**: Embedded gRPC server in YAZE enables remote GUI automation for testing and AI-driven workflows.
**Cross-Platform Foundation**: Core built for macOS/Linux with Windows support planned via vcpkg.

## Implementation Guide
### Building with gRPC Support
#### macOS (Recommended)
```bash
# Install dependencies (via vcpkg or system)
# vcpkg is handled automatically by CMake
# Configure with gRPC enabled
cmake -B build-grpc-test -DYAZE_WITH_GRPC=ON
# Build YAZE and z3ed
cmake --build build-grpc-test --target yaze -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
cmake --build build-grpc-test --target z3ed -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
# First build takes 15-20 minutes (gRPC compilation)
# Incremental builds: 5-10 seconds
```
#### Windows (Experimental)
```powershell
# Install vcpkg (one-time setup)
git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git C:\vcpkg
C:\vcpkg\bootstrap-vcpkg.bat
C:\vcpkg\vcpkg integrate install
# Install dependencies
C:\vcpkg\vcpkg install grpc:x64-windows abseil:x64-windows sdl2:x64-windows
# Configure and build
cmake -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=C:\vcpkg\scripts\buildsystems\vcpkg.cmake `
-DYAZE_WITH_GRPC=ON -A x64
cmake --build build --config Release --target yaze
cmake --build build --config Release --target z3ed
```
**Windows Notes**:
- Test harness not yet validated on Windows
- Use static linking to avoid DLL conflicts
- See `docs/02-build-instructions.md` for details
### Starting Test Harness
#### Basic Usage
```bash
# Start YAZE with test harness enabled
./build-grpc-test/bin/yaze.app/Contents/MacOS/yaze \
--enable_test_harness \
--test_harness_port=50052 \
--rom_file=assets/zelda3.sfc &
# Verify server is running
lsof -i :50052
# Should show yaze process listening
```
#### Configuration Options
```bash
--enable_test_harness Enable gRPC test harness (default: false)
--test_harness_port=<port> Port number (default: 50051)
--rom_file=<file> ROM to load on startup (optional)
```
### Testing RPCs with grpcurl
```bash
# Install grpcurl
brew install grpcurl
# Health check
grpcurl -plaintext -import-path src/app/core/proto \
-proto imgui_test_harness.proto \
-d '{"message":"test"}' 127.0.0.1:50052 yaze.test.ImGuiTestHarness/Ping
# Click button

## Testing & Validation
### Automated E2E Test Script
```bash
# Run comprehensive test suite
./scripts/test_harness_e2e.sh
# Expected: All 6 tests pass
# - Ping (health check)
# - Click (button interaction)
# - Type (text input)
# - Wait (condition polling)
# - Assert (state validation)
# - Screenshot (stub - returns not implemented)
```
### Manual Testing Workflow
#### 1. Create Proposal
```bash
./build/bin/z3ed agent run \
--rom=assets/zelda3.sfc \
--prompt "Test proposal" \
--sandbox
```
#### 2. List Proposals
```bash
./build/bin/z3ed agent list
```
#### 3. View Diff
```bash
./build/bin/z3ed agent diff
```
#### 4. Review in GUI
```bash
# Start YAZE
./build/bin/yaze.app/Contents/MacOS/yaze
# Navigate: Debug → Agent Proposals
# Select proposal → Review → Accept/Reject/Delete
```
### Performance Benchmarks
| Operation | Typical Time | Notes |
|-----------|-------------|-------|
| Ping RPC | < 10ms | Health check overhead |
| Click RPC | 50-200ms | Widget lookup + event |
| Type RPC | 100-300ms | Focus + clear + input |
| Wait RPC | 100-5000ms | Depends on condition |
| Assert RPC | 10-100ms | State query |
| Full Workflow | 1-2s | Click + Wait + Assert |
| Proposal Creation | < 1s | Mock AI service |
| ROM Merge | < 100ms | Memory copy |

## Development Workflows
### Adding New Agent Commands
1. **Create Handler** (`src/cli/handlers/<resource>.cc`)
```cpp
absl::Status HandleNewCommand(const CommandOptions& options) {
// Implementation
return absl::OkStatus();
}
```
2. **Register Command** (`src/cli/modern_cli.cc`)
```cpp
if (absl::GetFlag(FLAGS_new_resource) == "new-action") {
return HandleNewCommand(options);
}
```
3. **Add to Resource Catalog** (`src/cli/service/resource_catalog.cc`)
```cpp
catalog.resources.push_back({
.name = "new_resource",
.description = "Description",
.actions = {{
.name = "new-action",
.description = "Action description",
.arguments = {/* ... */},
.effects = {/* ... */},
.returns = {/* ... */}
}}
});
```
4. **Update Documentation**
- Add to `docs/api/z3ed-resources.yaml` (regenerate via `agent describe`)
- Add examples to relevant guides
### Adding New Test Harness RPCs
1. **Update Proto** (`src/app/core/proto/imgui_test_harness.proto`)
```protobuf
service ImGuiTestHarness {
rpc NewOperation(NewRequest) returns (NewResponse);
}
message NewRequest {
string parameter = 1;
}
message NewResponse {
bool success = 1;
string message = 2;
}
```
2. **Implement Handler** (`src/app/core/imgui_test_harness_service.cc`)
```cpp
grpc::Status ImGuiTestHarnessServiceImpl::NewOperation(
grpc::ServerContext* context,
const NewRequest* request,
NewResponse* response) {
// Implementation
response->set_success(true);
response->set_message("Operation completed");
return grpc::Status::OK;
}
```
3. **Rebuild**
```bash
cmake --build build-grpc-test --target yaze
```
4. **Test**
```bash
grpcurl -plaintext -import-path src/app/core/proto \
-proto imgui_test_harness.proto \
-d '{"parameter":"value"}' \
127.0.0.1:50052 yaze.test.ImGuiTestHarness/NewOperation
```
### Adding Test Workflow Patterns
1. **Add Pattern Matcher** (`src/cli/service/test_workflow_generator.cc`)
```cpp
bool MatchesNewPattern(const std::string& prompt, YourParams* params) {
std::regex pattern(R"(your regex pattern)");
std::smatch matches;
if (std::regex_search(prompt, matches, pattern)) {
// Extract parameters
return true;
}
return false;
}
```
2. **Add Workflow Builder**
```cpp
TestWorkflow BuildNewPatternWorkflow(const YourParams& params) {
TestWorkflow workflow;
workflow.description = "Your workflow description";
// Add steps
workflow.steps.push_back({
.type = TestStep::kClick,
.target = "button:Name",
/* ... */
});
return workflow;
}
```
3. **Integrate into Generator**
```cpp
absl::StatusOr<TestWorkflow> TestWorkflowGenerator::GenerateFromPrompt(
const std::string& prompt) {
YourParams params;
if (MatchesNewPattern(prompt, &params)) {
return BuildNewPatternWorkflow(params);
}
// ... other patterns
}
```

## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues
#### Port Already in Use
**Problem**: `Failed to start gRPC server: Address already in use`
**Solutions**:
```bash
# Find and kill existing instance
lsof -i :50052
kill <PID>
# Or use different port
./yaze --enable_test_harness --test_harness_port=50053
```
#### Connection Refused
**Problem**: `Error connecting to server: Connection refused`
**Solutions**:
1. Verify server is running: `lsof -i :50052`
2. Check firewall settings
3. Ensure correct port number
#### Widget Not Found
**Problem**: `Button 'XYZ' not found`
**Solutions**:
1. Verify widget label is correct (case-sensitive)
2. Check if widget is in active window
3. Wait for window to be visible first
4. Use Assert to check widget exists
#### Build Errors - Boolean Flag
**Problem**: `std::stringstream >> bool` doesn't parse "true"/"false"
**Solution**: Already fixed in `src/util/flag.h` with template specialization
#### Build Errors - Incomplete Type
**Problem**: `error: delete called on 'grpc::Server' that is incomplete`
**Solution**: Ensure destructor implementation is in `.cc` file, not header
### Debug Mode
Enable verbose logging:
```bash
# In z3ed
export YAZE_LOG_LEVEL=debug
./z3ed agent test --prompt "..."
# In test harness
./yaze --enable_test_harness --log_level=debug
```
### Test Harness Diagnostics
```bash
# Check server status
grpcurl -plaintext 127.0.0.1:50052 list
# Check available services
grpcurl -plaintext 127.0.0.1:50052 list yaze.test.ImGuiTestHarness
# Describe service
grpcurl -plaintext 127.0.0.1:50052 describe yaze.test.ImGuiTestHarness
```

## Platform Notes
### macOS (ARM64) - Production Ready ✅
**Status**: Fully tested and operational
**Build Time**: 15-20 minutes (first build), 5-10 seconds (incremental)
**Binary Size**: ~74 MB (with gRPC)
**Known Issues**: None
**Recommended Setup**:
```bash
# Use Homebrew for dependencies
brew install cmake grpcurl
# Build with vcpkg (automatic via CMake)
cmake -B build-grpc-test -DYAZE_WITH_GRPC=ON
cmake --build build-grpc-test --target yaze -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
```
### macOS (Intel) - Should Work ⚠️
**Status**: Not explicitly tested, but should work
**Expected Issues**: None (same toolchain as ARM64)
### Linux - Should Work ⚠️
**Status**: Not explicitly tested
**Expected Issues**: None (gRPC has excellent Linux support)
**Setup**:
```bash
# Install dependencies
sudo apt-get install cmake build-essential
# Build (same as macOS)
cmake -B build-grpc-test -DYAZE_WITH_GRPC=ON
cmake --build build-grpc-test --target yaze -j$(nproc)
```
### Windows - Experimental 🔬
**Status**: Build system ready, test harness not validated
**Known Limitations**:
- Test harness not yet tested on Windows
- May require static linking to avoid DLL conflicts
- vcpkg setup more complex than macOS
**Recommended Approach**: Use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL2) for now
