What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded

An open-source Computer Use service exposed as an MCP server, letting any AI agent or MCP client control the desktop (GUI automation via accessibility APIs) on macOS, Linux, and Windows. It is an open alternative to OpenAI's Codex Computer Use, installable via npm with a CLI alias `ocu`.

Use cases

  • give an AI agent computer use control of my desktop
  • open-source alternative to Codex Computer Use
  • add computer use to Codex CLI or Gemini CLI via MCP
  • automate GUI interactions with an AI agent
  • cross-platform desktop automation for MCP clients
  • let Claude Code control screen and keyboard

When to choose

  • you want non-intrusive computer-use capabilities built on accessibility APIs
  • you need an MCP-compatible CUA server across macOS, Linux, and Windows
  • you use agents like Codex, Gemini CLI, or Claude Code and want desktop control

When to avoid

  • you only need browser automation rather than full desktop control
  • you are on macOS older than 14.0
  • you cannot grant Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions on macOS
