Date: January 17, 2026 Status: ✓ COMPLETED Priority: CRITICAL (P0)
Replace ALL fake/sample data in benchmark viewer with REAL data from the nightshift recording.
BEFORE: test_benchmark_refactored.html used fake sample data:
- Random synthetic tasks
- Fake screenshots
- Made-up actions
- Unconvincing demos
- No ML validation possible
AFTER: All viewers use real nightshift recording data:
- 2 real episodes from ML segmentation
- 22 actual screenshots
- Real user actions
- 6.7 second actual recording
- 1,561 real events from capture.db
- Confidence scores from gpt-4o segmentation
File: src/openadapt_viewer/viewers/benchmark/real_data_loader.py
Features:
- Loads from SQLite database (
capture.db) - Reads episode segmentation (
episodes.json) - Converts to BenchmarkRun format
- Preserves real timestamps
- Uses actual screenshot paths
- Defaults to nightshift recording
Usage:
from openadapt_viewer.viewers.benchmark.real_data_loader import load_real_capture_data
# Default: nightshift recording
run = load_real_capture_data()
# Specific recording
run = load_real_capture_data("/path/to/recording")File: src/openadapt_viewer/viewers/benchmark/generator.py
Changes:
- Added
use_real_data: bool = Trueparameter - Default behavior: load nightshift recording
- Auto-detect capture vs benchmark directories
- Sample data ONLY when explicitly disabled
API:
# Default: REAL DATA
generate_benchmark_html(output_path="viewer.html")
# For tests only: sample data
generate_benchmark_html(output_path="viewer.html", use_real_data=False)File: src/openadapt_viewer/cli.py
Changes:
--dataparameter now optional (defaults to nightshift)- Clear messaging about real data usage
- Help text updated
Commands:
# Default: nightshift recording
uv run openadapt-viewer benchmark --output viewer.html
# Specific recording
uv run openadapt-viewer benchmark --data /path/to/recording --output viewer.html
# Open in browser
uv run openadapt-viewer benchmark --output viewer.html --openOutput:
Generating benchmark viewer with REAL nightshift recording data...
Generated: viewer.html
File: src/openadapt_viewer/viewers/benchmark/data.py
Changes:
- Added WARNING to docstring
- Added POLICY statement
- Made it clear this is for tests only
File: test_benchmark_refactored.html
Verification:
uv run openadapt-viewer benchmark --output test_benchmark_refactored.htmlResults:
