addDialogRule · dialogRules · clearDialogRules

This tool on every surface: CLI · MCP · Python · JavaScript · Go · Java · .NET

Declare how to answer a dialog, so an action that meets it carries on: when a dialog whose text contains when is in the way of a tap, a type or any action with a target, the button captioned press is pressed, the dialog is confirmed gone, and the action continues — and its result says which dialog was answered. These call app_dialogs.

addDialogRule​

addDialogRule(when: string, press: string): Promise<void>

dialogRules​

dialogRules(): Promise<Data[]>

clearDialogRules​

clearDialogRules(): Promise<void>
