UFO³ is Microsoft's open-source framework for LLM-powered GUI agents that automate Windows applications and orchestrate workflows across multiple devices. It combines UFO², a stable Desktop AgentOS with deep Windows integration and hybrid GUI+API actions, with Galaxy, a multi-device orchestration layer that decomposes tasks into executable DAGs coordinated via the Agent Interaction Protocol (AIP).

Use cases

  • automate windows applications with an llm agent
  • orchestrate automation tasks across multiple devices
  • decompose complex tasks into a dag of subtasks
  • build a custom device agent that joins a multi-agent galaxy
  • control gui apps and apis from a single agent
  • automate repetitive desktop workflows on windows

When to choose

  • you need LLM-driven automation of Windows desktop applications
  • you want cross-device, multi-agent orchestration with DAG-based planning
  • you want a research-backed, actively developed agent framework from Microsoft

When to avoid

  • you need a battle-tested LTS solution and can't tolerate an actively evolving framework (Galaxy)
  • your automation targets are Linux or macOS only with no Windows devices
  • you need simple scripted automation without LLM costs or latency
