A Python framework that lets multimodal LLMs operate a computer by viewing the screen and issuing mouse and keyboard actions to reach a stated objective. It integrates with models like GPT-4o, Gemini Pro Vision, Claude 3, and Qwen-VL and is driven via the `operate` CLI.

Use cases

  • automate computer tasks with an ai agent
  • let an llm control mouse and keyboard
  • computer-use agent framework
  • automate gui interactions with gpt-4o
  • ai that operates a desktop like a human
  • run multimodal model to complete on-screen objectives

When to choose

  • you want an open-source computer-use agent that works with multiple multimodal model providers
  • you need to automate desktop GUI tasks via screen understanding
  • you want a pip-installable CLI for AI-driven OS automation

When to avoid

  • you need only browser automation rather than full desktop control
  • you cannot grant screen-recording and accessibility permissions to your terminal
  • you require a fully sandboxed or headless automation environment
