P1 Badge Fix awk field escapes in geometry parsing

When screen_action is anything other than capture-only, these awk programs use \$2 inside double quotes, which causes Bash (with set -u) to expand shell positional parameter $2 instead of passing awk field $2; in bash -lc here $2 is unset, so the step exits before any click/screenshot action runs. This makes all new interactive actions fail consistently.
