Summary

  • Fix children_content_hash method in computer-server/computer_server/handlers/macos.py where str.join() was used instead of string concatenation
  • content_hash.join(content_structure_hash) treats content_structure_hash as an iterable, joining its characters with content_hash as separator — producing nonsensical hashes
  • Changed to use + operator for correct concatenation

Test plan

  • Verify that children_content_hash now produces deterministic, correct hashes
  • Existing accessibility tree tests should pass (hash values will change since they were previously incorrect)

Release Notes

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved hash computation for UI element identification to ensure more accurate and consistent tracking of user interface components.

str.join() was used to combine two hash strings, but it treats the
second argument as an iterable — joining individual characters of the
string with the first string as separator. For example,
"abc".join("def") produces "dabceabcf" instead of "abcdef".

Use concatenation (+) instead to correctly combine the two hashes.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The UIElement.children_content_hash() method is corrected to concatenate hashes using the + operator instead of calling str.join(), which was misapplied to the hash strings.

Layer / File(s) Summary
Core Logic
libs/python/computer-server/computer_server/handlers/macos.py
UIElement.children_content_hash() now concatenates content_hash + content_structure_hash directly instead of misusing str.join() on the hashes.

Poem

A rabbit hops through the code so deep,
Found a .join() that should not keep,
With + now swift, the hashes align,
Content and structure combined just fine! 🐇✨
