chore(release): bump to 0.27.0-fork.17 — eval-first skill + find-url (local bookmark search) + site-notes convention

Borrow web-access's site-experience persistence as an agent-workflow convention
(no CLI code): keep one markdown file per domain under
~/.agent-browser/site-patterns/<domain>.md. Read it before working a domain
(hints, not guarantees); update it after learning something durable — working
selectors, required hidden fields, anti-bot traps, login needs. Makes repeat
visits fast instead of re-solving the same page every run.

+## Before you automate: pick the cheapest tool
+
+Driving a browser is the heavy option. agent-browser earns its keep when you
+need a **real, logged-in browser** — not for reading text off a public page.
+
+| You need | Use |
+|---|---|
+| Discover what exists / find sources | `WebSearch` |
+| Specific facts from a static or public page | `WebFetch` or `curl` (no browser) |
+| Login state, interaction, JS-rendered or anti-bot pages | **agent-browser** (this skill) |
+| A page the user saved before / an internal system | `agent-browser find-url <keywords>` (their bookmarks), then open it |
+
+Don't hand-build deep URLs with query params — links discovered by *interacting*
+with the site carry the right hidden context and dodge anti-bot checks; a
+hand-constructed URL often doesn't.
+
+## Two ways to drive a page — and when to drop to `eval`
+
+You have a **real Chrome with the user's DOM**. Two layers, mix them freely:
+
+1. **Structured** (`snapshot` + `@ref`, `find`, typed actions) — convenient and
+   readable; best for straightforward forms and navigation. But the a11y view is
+   *lossy and fragile*: refs go stale on any change, hidden inputs never show up,
+   overlays can block coordinate clicks.
+2. **eval-first** (`agent-browser eval "<js>"`) — your eyes and hands on the real
+   DOM: read hidden inputs, reach into Shadow DOM / iframes, inspect
+   `form.elements` and `.validity`, extract the exact shape you want, or call
+   `el.click()` directly. **The moment the structured path fights you, drop to
+   `eval` instead of retrying it** — it's the fast way to find *why* something
+   failed (e.g. a hidden `point_choice=none` the UI never exposes).
+
+```bash
+# "what's actually in this form / why won't it submit?"
+agent-browser eval "[...document.forms[0].elements].map(e=>[e.name,e.type,e.value,e.checked])"
+agent-browser eval "document.querySelector('[name=point_choice]')?.value"
+agent-browser eval "[...document.forms[0].elements].filter(e=>!e.validity.valid).map(e=>e.name+': '+e.validationMessage)"

+occluded clicks). Don't retry a flaky structured locator three times; drop to
+`eval` and act on the DOM directly.
+
+`click` auto-scrolls into view and, if the coordinate click is occluded, falls
+back to a DOM `.click()`. If a click *reports success but nothing happened* —

+### Remember a site's quirks (site notes)
+
+A site behaves the same every time you visit it. When you work out something
+durable — a working selector, a URL pattern, a hidden field a form needs, an
+anti-bot trap, what requires login — **write it down so the next run doesn't
+re-discover it.** Keep one markdown file per domain (these are your own notes,
+not shipped with the skill):
+
+```
+~/.agent-browser/site-patterns/<domain>.md
+```
+
+**Before** working on a domain, read its file if it exists (use your normal file
+tools — this is plain markdown you own). Treat it as *hints, not guarantees* —
+sites change; verify before relying. **After** a successful session that taught
+you something durable, create or update it. Suggested shape:
+
+```markdown
+---
+domain: app.example.com
+updated: 2026-06-05
+---
+## Platform traits
+SPA; form renders ~1s after load (wait --text). Cloudflare on /login.
+
+## Working patterns
+- Address pick: the `<li>` closes on blur — select with CLICK_MODE=dom.
+- Submit needs hidden `point_choice` set (eval), the UI never exposes it.
+- Stable selector for "Continue": button[data-testid=submit]
+
+## Known traps (date them)
+- 2026-06-05: @ref to the basket button goes stale after the mini-cart opens;
+  re-snapshot or use `find role button --name "Checkout"`.
+```
+
+This is how repeat visits get fast and reliable instead of re-solving the same
+page every time.
