Operate and test graphical applications through screenshots, coordinates, and input events using available shell tools or platform automation. Use for desktop GUI interaction, game reproductions, and scripted visual workflows, including private headless desktops.
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
# Computer use A vision-capable agent needs an action/capture tool and a way to read images. Shell commands plus an image-capable file reader satisfy this contract. Use the available automation backend; do not make a dedicated MCP or wrapper a prerequisite. Prefer an existing CLI or API when the task does not require exercising the GUI. ## Establish the session Before execution tests, apply `$e2e-side-effect-safety` if available. Establish ownership and effective routing before launching or sending input. Continue autonomously when the session is verified private and non-disturbing; otherwise inspect or isolate it, and ask before unavoidable interaction with a shared desktop. For local tests, own the desktop, application instance, config/profile, writable data, screenshots, and process lifecycle. A separate display alone does not isolate saves, audio, credentials, network traffic, or single-instance application IPC. Use private fixtures and verify application-specific paths and fallbacks. Silence the test application's output without changing the user's audio. For offline tests, verify that the app cannot contact external services; headless is not offline. …

How to install
mdr add archibate/agent-skills/computer-use@sha256:6c561ee65a07599dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261015.0567d17, 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.
