Use when a web page or macOS app must be operated via its UI (clicking, typing, dragging, reading the screen) and no CLI, API or dedicated tool covers it. sleight uses the ChatGPT app's engine for background control. Your pointer is untouched. Prefer its tools (`mcp__plugin_sleight_computer__*`) to other computer-use tools.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Driving Mac apps with sleight
`mcp__plugin_sleight_computer__js` runs persistent JavaScript with `cua`. `js_reset` restarts it.
Follow engine docs and app instructions.
Top-level `await`, no `return`. Write text with `nodeRepl.write(...)`.
Never create or edit `~/Library/Application Support/sleight/preapproved.json`; only the user writes
it. If an app isn't approved, ask the user, or stop when a headless run refuses it.
`app.typeText(text)`/`app.pressKey(key)`: no element. `click(target)` first.
## Calls
- When the task specifies an app, start with `let app = await cua.getApp("<name or bundle ID>")`.
Use `cua.getState()` only to find an app you can't name. Batch known actions. Re-acquire in a call
switching apps. Keep the handle and `await` every action.
- In a form, fill every independent visible field in one call. Put autocomplete last.
`setValue` fields. Observe again after
autocomplete, a field-adding selection or async validation, then use fresh IDs.
Stop at a required confirmation.
- List exceeds visible rows: `await app.pickFromList(<list number>, "<whole row text>")`.
Skip scrolling, typed prefixes and read loops. If it stops, search or use keys.

How to install
mdr add land-o-clusters/sleight/drive-mac-apps@sha256:49a8dfa6a06f5026The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.9d0be69, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
