Control an authorized local Android phone or show its real-time read-only video beside the current local Codex task on macOS. Use for phone app tasks and Android UI checks.

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

# OpenGUI

Use the installed plugin launcher by absolute path: `sh "<plugin-root>/scripts/opengui" <interface> '<json>'`. The plugin root is two directories above this Skill. Keep the host-provided CODEX_THREAD_ID unchanged. Never invent task identity or use raw ADB as a phone-control fallback.

1. Call `opengui_list_devices`. Automatically choose the sole authorized phone or the user's exact target. Ask for selection only when multiple targets are ambiguous; freeze that selection for the task.
2. Call `opengui_open_viewer` with selected `deviceIds`. Open its returned URL using the native Codex `open_in_codex` tool with `placement: "right"` and `target: {type: "browser", url: ...}` in the CURRENT task. Discover that native tool if deferred. Reuse the existing page when this task already opened this viewerId. If the native tool is unavailable, report a display blocker; do not substitute an external browser or claim a link was opened.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add core-mate/opengui/control@sha256:80beabd0f7175fc7

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260913.83df91f, 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.
