description

Validate Kata Code nightly releases on macOS with the @Computer plugin. Start and update the nightly app, use its New Project flow to create a timestamp-suffixed nightly UAT project under `/Volumes/EVO/dev`, then execute explicit acceptance criteria for a Codex GPT-5.4-Mini chat, Browser and Files panels, and git commit flow; capture criterion-level screenshots and write an evidence-linked report in the created project. Use when validating or documenting the Kata Code nightly release flow.

Validate Kata Nightly

Workflow

Use @Computer (or equivalent "computer-use" capability) for every Kata Code UI action and visual check. Capture screenshots and/or video and copy each capture into the created project immediately.

1. Launch /Applications/Kata Code (Nightly).app. If the bundle is missing, download the latest nightly from the GitHub tags page.
2. Use Check for Updates… in the app menu and complete the update flow.
3. Use the app's New Project flow to create a new project at /Volumes/EVO/dev/nightly-uat/nightly-uat-<timestamp> (or a temp location such as /tmp/nightly-uat-<timestamp>) if not running locally. Use the exact project name nightly-uat-<timestamp> and a timestamp unique to this run.
4. Copy assets/report.md to the created project as report.md. Save all screenshots and any video recording in the created project.
5. Evaluate every acceptance criterion below. Capture a screenshot for each criterion, even when it fails, and save it as AC##-<short-name>.png in the created project.
6. Complete report.md. Mark each criterion Pass, Fail, or Blocked, include the exact evidence filename, and list all failures and blockers in the final summary.
