+## What's new (2026-06-19)
+
+Two headless cores that shipped without the rest of their stack are now
+first-class. Both gain a facade re-export, an `AC_*` executor command, an
+MCP tool, and a Script Builder entry, with headless tests. Full reference:
+[`docs/source/Eng/doc/new_features/v6_features_doc.rst`](docs/source/Eng/doc/new_features/v6_features_doc.rst).
+
+- **Visual regression (golden images)** — `take_golden` / `compare_to_golden` (`AC_take_golden` / `AC_assert_visual`): capture a baseline screenshot and fail when the screen drifts beyond a pixel tolerance, with a highlighted diff image and mask regions. `AC_assert_visual` auto-creates the baseline on first run. PIL-only.
+- **Finite-state machine** — `run_state_machine` (`AC_run_state_machine`): drive a script as a declarative `{initial, states}` spec whose `on_enter` actions run through the executor and whose transitions fire on `after` / `if_var_eq` / predicate guards, bounded by `max_steps` / `global_timeout_s`.
+
 ## What's new (2026-06-18)
 
 Eight headless capabilities that round out scripting, integration, and CI

+=========================================================
+New Features (2026-06-19) — Visual Regression & FSM
+=========================================================
+
+Two headless cores that already existed but were never wired through the
+rest of the stack are now first-class: **golden-image visual regression**
+and a **declarative finite-state-machine** runner. Both ship a facade
+re-export, an ``AC_*`` executor command, an MCP tool, and a Script Builder
+entry, with headless tests (PIL images / specs are injected, so nothing
+needs a real screen).
+
+.. contents::
+   :local:
+   :depth: 2
+
+
+Visual regression (golden images)
+=================================
+
+Capture a baseline image and later fail a run when the screen drifts from
+it — the screenshot equivalent of a snapshot test::
+
+    from je_auto_control import take_golden, compare_to_golden
+
+    take_golden("goldens/login.png")                      # establish baseline
+    result = compare_to_golden("goldens/login.png", tolerance=0.5)
+    if not result.matched:
+        result.write_diff("goldens/login.diff.png")
+        print(result.summary)
+
+``compare_to_golden`` returns a ``DiffResult`` (``matched``, ``diff_pct``,
+``differing_pixels``, a highlighted ``diff_image``); ``tolerance`` is the
+percentage of pixels allowed to differ and ``per_pixel_threshold`` ignores
+small per-channel noise. ``MaskRegion`` excludes animated / volatile areas.
+PIL-only — no OpenCV / SciPy dependency.
+
+Executor commands:
+
+* ``AC_take_golden`` — capture and save a baseline (optional ``region``).
+* ``AC_assert_visual`` — compare the screen to a golden and raise on
+  mismatch (saving an optional ``diff_path``). On the **first run** (golden
+  missing) it captures the baseline and passes, unless
+  ``create_if_missing`` is false.
+
+
+Finite-state machine
+====================
+
+Drive a script as a declarative state machine — clearer than nested
+loops / ifs for screen-flow automation::
+
+    from je_auto_control import run_state_machine
+
+    spec = {
+        "initial": "login",
+        "states": {
+            "login": {"on_enter": [["AC_click_text", {"text": "Sign in"}]],
+                       "transitions": [{"go_to": "home", "after": 1.0}]},
+            "home": {"final": True},
+        },
+    }
+    result = run_state_machine(spec)   # {final_state, steps, elapsed_s}
+
+Each state's ``on_enter`` actions run through the executor; transitions
+fire on guards (``after`` a delay, ``if_var_eq``, or a caller predicate).
+``max_steps`` and ``global_timeout_s`` bound the run so it can't loop
+forever.
+
+Executor command: ``AC_run_state_machine`` (the ``spec`` dict travels in
+JSON action files / the socket server / MCP unchanged).

+============================================
+新功能 (2026-06-19) — 視覺回歸與狀態機
+============================================
+
+兩個早已存在、卻從未接上其餘各層的 headless 核心,現在成為一級功能:
+**黃金影像視覺回歸**與**宣告式有限狀態機**執行器。兩者都提供 facade
+re-export、``AC_*`` 執行器指令、MCP 工具與 Script Builder 項目,並有
+headless 測試(PIL 影像 / spec 以注入方式提供,完全不需真實螢幕)。
+
+.. contents::
+   :local:
+   :depth: 2
+
+
+視覺回歸(黃金影像)
+====================
+
+擷取基準圖,之後在畫面偏離時讓該次執行失敗——等同於截圖版的 snapshot
+測試::
+
+    from je_auto_control import take_golden, compare_to_golden
+
+    take_golden("goldens/login.png")                      # 建立基準
+    result = compare_to_golden("goldens/login.png", tolerance=0.5)
+    if not result.matched:
+        result.write_diff("goldens/login.diff.png")
+        print(result.summary)
+
+``compare_to_golden`` 回傳 ``DiffResult``(``matched``、``diff_pct``、
+``differing_pixels``、標示差異的 ``diff_image``);``tolerance`` 是允許
+差異的像素百分比,``per_pixel_threshold`` 可忽略各通道的細微雜訊。
+``MaskRegion`` 可排除動畫 / 易變區域。純 PIL——不需 OpenCV / SciPy。
+
+執行器指令:
+
+* ``AC_take_golden`` — 擷取並存基準圖(可選 ``region``)。
+* ``AC_assert_visual`` — 把畫面與黃金影像比對,不符即拋例外(可存
+  ``diff_path``)。**首跑**(基準不存在)時會擷取基準並通過,除非
+  ``create_if_missing`` 設為 false。
+
+
+有限狀態機
+==========
+
+把腳本當成宣告式狀態機來驅動——對於畫面流程自動化,比巢狀 loop / if
+更清楚::
+
+    from je_auto_control import run_state_machine
+
+    spec = {
+        "initial": "login",
+        "states": {
+            "login": {"on_enter": [["AC_click_text", {"text": "Sign in"}]],
+                       "transitions": [{"go_to": "home", "after": 1.0}]},
+            "home": {"final": True},
+        },
+    }
+    result = run_state_machine(spec)   # {final_state, steps, elapsed_s}
+
+每個狀態的 ``on_enter`` 動作會透過執行器執行;transition 依 guard 觸發
+(延遲 ``after``、``if_var_eq`` 或呼叫端 predicate)。``max_steps`` 與
+``global_timeout_s`` 限制執行,使其不會無限迴圈。
+
+執行器指令:``AC_run_state_machine``(``spec`` dict 可原樣經 JSON 動作檔 /
+socket server / MCP 傳遞)。
