computer-control@1.0.3
CAUTIONPublisher claims: "Control the computer like a human: take screenshots, move/click the mouse, type text, press hotkeys, scroll, launch apps, and run AppleScript — via the dependency-free `tarsx` CLI (zero config, no API keys). Click windows by app name (`clickwin`), no pixel guessing. Cross-platform core with auto-detected backends: macOS first (cliclick/osascript/screencapture), Linux (xdotool), Windows (PowerShell). Non-ASCII text (Cyrillic, emoji) works out of the box via clipboard paste. Use when the user asks to open/close an app, click or type somewhere, take a screenshot, automate a GUI application, fill a desktop form, check what is on screen, or any GUI automation that shell/browser tools cannot reach. Ukrainian triggers: "відкрий/закрий програму", "натисни", "набери", "зроби скріншот", "керуй комп'ютером". Inspired by Agent TARS (GUI-first computer use), implemented natively." Observed in sandbox: no network, touches nothing outside the project, writes no memory.
