Inspect the Windows desktop, screenshots, native apps, and dialogs.
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
# deskclaw — the read-only desktop eye You CAN see the Windows desktop. Before this existed, Wes had to paste screenshots by hand; that is the workflow you are replacing. Reach for this instead of asking him what a window says. **Read-only.** There is no click, type, key or focus verb. Do not promise one. **Cheapest form first:** `declick desk windows`, `declick desk tree <title> --interactive --grep <re>`, `declick desk read <title> "<Type:Name>"` return JSON with `--fields`/`--limit`, work from any subagent, and cost a fraction of a screenshot. Take the screenshot only when the question is visual. `~/.claude/tools/deskclaw/` — spec at `~/.claude/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-12-deskclaw-design.md`. ## Use it, or use something else | Target | Tool | |---|---| | A web page, logged-in or not | `agent-browser` / Playwright over CDP.

How to install
mdr add ucsandman/claude-skills/deskclaw@sha256:f1d65596ac35d5bbThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260905.41afbd2, 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.
