Automates Apple-platform apps (iOS, tvOS, macOS), Android devices, and Amazon Vega OS TV apps in Vega Virtual Devices. Use when navigating apps, taking snapshots/screenshots where supported, driving TV remotes, tapping, typing, scrolling, extracting UI info, collecting evidence, or planning agent-device CLI commands.

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

# agent-device

For a normal app-driving task, start immediately. Do not probe first with `--help`, `--version`, `devices`, `appstate`, `snapshot`, or `screenshot`:

```bash
agent-device open <app> --foreground
```

That starts the session and returns the initial interactive snapshot with `@refs`.

Loop: act with `press|click|fill|longpress <target> ... --settle`, `scroll <direction> --settle`, or `back --settle`; continue from the printed diff, verify the named expectation (`wait text "..."`, `is`, `get`, or `find`), then run `agent-device close`.

Reaching an off-screen target is one command, not a scroll-and-check loop: `scroll down --until <selector>` scrolls until that element is on screen, and `scroll bottom` runs to the end of the content. Repeated bare `scroll down` calls are the slow way to find something.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add callstack/agent-device/agent-device@sha256:ad3b4ccbd2d43c3b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260910.6d08de4, 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.
