Talos browser agent reuses learned site recipes instead of re-parsing the DOM every run

A builder is developing Talos/Taloswork to address why browser agents that look great in demos fall apart when layouts change, logins or CAPTCHAs appear, or sites are revisited. The approach: on first visit, use a lightweight accessibility snapshot plus an LLM to understand the page and confirm interactions; on later visits, reuse a learned page-type/site-structure recipe instead of re-reading the whole DOM; keep browser work in the same desktop workspace as local files; and hand control to a human — within the same browser session — when credentials, CAPTCHAs, ambiguous UI, or structural changes appear. The goal is repeatable, debuggable browser workflows that don't silently invent results, and the author is soliciting blunt feedback on positioning and failure modes.
