input_text
Types text into a focused element using an ephemeral Maestro flow. Optionally submits by pressing Enter.
Instructions
Types text into the currently-focused element via an ephemeral Maestro flow. Set submit:true to press Enter after typing. Note: Android does not support Unicode via inputText. WebView caveat: inputText injects at the native buffer level — React onChange/onChangeText never fires. For WebView forms use mobile-mcp mobile_type_keys (real keystroke simulation) instead.
