computer-use-linux SKILL.md skillA
This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.
computer-use-linux from agent-sh/computer-use-linux is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add agent-sh/computer-use-linux/computer-use-linux@git:20261105.35d8a3fPins git:20261105.35d8a3f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Linux desktop observation and control via native Pi tools or the computer-use-linux MCP server: accessibility trees, screenshots, window targeting, and input synthesis (click, type, scroll).
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-linux Use `computer-use-linux` when an agent needs to observe or operate a local Linux desktop: inspect the accessibility tree, list/focus windows, take screenshots, click, scroll, type, press keys, or invoke AT-SPI actions. On labwc, window targeting uses the Selkies IPC patch's `labwc.sock` when it exists. Stock labwc and other wlroots compositors that advertise wlr-foreign-toplevel-management use that protocol instead, which reports no pids or bounds. Activation requires a unique app-id/title match. Window IDs include the title and must be refreshed after it changes. Ambiguous windows are rejected. Window bounds and relative coordinate targeting are unavailable until output scaling can be verified. Window-targeted screenshots, including `screenshot_after: "window"`, fail for the same reason; capture the full screen instead. Native X11 clicks, scrolls and drags use xdotool/XTEST on `DISPLAY`, ahead of uinput and portal input. Install xdotool for this route. Missing or failed commands return an error without a system-wide fallback. Drags send paced intermediate motion and always attempt release after a failed press or motion; verify the drop target afterward. …

How to install
mdr add agent-sh/computer-use-linux/computer-use-linux@sha256:bbd4006407cc8e8cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.35d8a3f, 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.
