Ghost OS is a native macOS framework that gives AI agents full computer-use capabilities by exposing the macOS accessibility tree, Chrome DevTools Protocol, an on-device vision model, and synthetic input through an MCP-compatible interface. It includes self-learning recipes that record a user performing a task once and replay it, letting agents click buttons, fill forms, and operate any app without screenshots.
Use cases
- let an AI agent click buttons and fill forms in native macOS apps
- automate sending emails or organizing files via an LLM agent
- record a workflow once and have the agent replay it forever
- give Claude Code or other MCP clients control of the Mac UI
- control web apps through Chrome DevTools Protocol instead of screenshots
- run on-device visual grounding when accessibility data is unavailable
When to choose
- you need computer-use automation on macOS without screenshot-based vision loops
- you want an MCP server that exposes native app control to any agent
- you want fast, structured UI interaction via the accessibility tree
- you want self-learning recorded workflows
- you prefer on-device inference on Apple Silicon
When to avoid
- you need computer-use on Linux or Windows
- your automation is browser-only and a browser automation tool suffices
- you need a screenshot-pixel-based approach for non-native rendering environments
- you cannot grant macOS accessibility and input permissions
