A TypeScript sample application from OpenAI demonstrating how to use the Computer Using Agent (CUA) via the Responses API against browser environments. It includes a Next.js operator console, a Fastify runner managing browser sessions and workspaces, and shared packages for defining and verifying automation scenarios.
Use cases
- learn how to integrate OpenAI computer-use agents via the API
- automate browser tasks with an AI agent clicking and typing
- build an operator console for reviewing agent runs and screenshots
- compare native computer-use mode versus scripted Playwright code mode
- set up isolated browser workspaces for AI agent scenarios
- replay and inspect agent event traces and screenshots
When to choose
- you want a reference implementation for OpenAI's CUA / Responses API
- you need to prototype browser automation driven by an LLM agent
- you want a working example of an operator UI with run replay and event logs
- you are evaluating native computer-use actions versus code-execution browser control
When to avoid
- you need a production-ready agent framework rather than a sample app
- you want to automate desktop applications instead of browser sessions
- you need Python examples - the legacy Python sample is not in this branch
- you cannot provide an OpenAI API key, since live runs are secret-gated
