## What it is
A Python library that lets LLM-powered AI agents control and interact with any macOS application via the accessibility layer, from the makers of browser-use. It translates natural-language prompts into actions across native Mac apps.

## Use cases
- let an AI agent operate any Mac app
- automate calculator or native app tasks with a prompt
- have an agent log into websites via Google auth on macOS
- control my MacBook with natural language commands
- build computer-use agents for macOS
- automate repetitive desktop workflows with LLMs

## When to choose
- you want LLM agents to drive native macOS apps, not just browsers
- you're building on top of browser-use and need desktop control
- you're prototyping computer-use agents on a Mac

## When to avoid
- you need Windows or Linux desktop automation
- you need a production-hardened, stable automation tool
- you can't grant accessibility permissions or share an LLM API key

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: experimental
- function: agent-framework, machine-learning, llm-inference, workflow-automation
- domain: artificial-intelligence, large-language-models, apple-ecosystem
- platform: python
