+## Interaction example: capture the visible result
+
+The default final URL answers "where did the page end up?", not "what did the
+page show?". Many interactions, such as a search button that renders results in
+place, change the page without changing the URL. A capture with only the
+default `url` artifact then reports that the click succeeded and the URL is
+unchanged, which cannot tell you whether results appeared.
+
+Request the artifacts that answer your question and wait for the state you want
+to inspect. This scenario clicks a Search button, waits for the current search
+results, and captures the final DOM, accessibility tree, and URL. It assumes the
+local page clears `#results`'s `data-state` while loading and sets it to `ready`
+after rendering the current response. Adapt the selectors and readiness marker
+to your page; an already-visible container or previous results are insufficient.

+  "browser": {
+    "mode": "launch",
+    "executable_path": "/absolute/path/to/chromium"
+  },
+  "start_url": { "url": "http://127.0.0.1:3000" },
+  "actions": [
+    {
+      "step_id": "search",
+      "action": "click",
+      "locator": { "kind": "css", "selector": "#search" },

+      "step_id": "results-ready",
+      "action": "wait_for",
+      "locator": { "kind": "css", "selector": "#results[data-state='ready']" },
+      "state": "visible",
+      "timeout_ms": 10000
+    }
+  ],
+  "capture": { "at_end": ["dom", "accessibility", "url"] }
+}
+```
+
+Save it as `browser-search.json` and run it the same way as the minimal
+example:
+
+```bash
+rea capture-browser-scenario ./browser-search.json --json > browser-search-capture.json
+```
+
+Through MCP, pass the same object as the `capture_browser_scenario` arguments.
+The final step's DOM and accessibility artifacts retain the page state at that
+capture time inline. REA still launches and cleans up the browser profile.
+
+The click's `timeout_ms` covers the click action. A non-navigating `fetch` or
+delayed render can finish later, so use `wait_for` to observe a page-specific
+ready condition before final capture. A page that updates synchronously can
+omit that wait. REA does not infer application readiness from capture selection.
+
+Choose captures by the question being asked:
+
+- `dom` and `accessibility`: text or structure the page rendered, such as
+  search results, validation messages, or updated lists. The accessibility tree
+  is usually the more compact way to read visible text.
+- `screenshot`: visual layout or styling, or content not exposed as text, such
+  as a canvas.
+- `history` or `storage`: navigation history, or cookies and web storage the
+  interaction wrote. Request them only when that state is the question; they
+  are never captured implicitly.
+- `after_each_step` instead of `at_end`: intermediate state between actions in
+  a multi-step scenario.
+- `events` (`console`, `page-errors`, `network`, and so on): how the page
+  reached its result, such as the request a search issued or an error it
+  logged. Select only the event families you need.
+
+Capture states are reported per artifact. An artifact you did not request is
+`not_requested`, which means REA did not look, not that the page had nothing
+to show. A step's `completeness` of `complete` covers only the sections that
+were requested. A URL-only capture can be `complete` and still be unable to
+answer a question about rendered content, so add the relevant artifact and run
+the scenario again rather than inferring from its absence. Capture completeness
+also does not assert that the page's background work has finished.
