What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

windows-computer-use-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

windows-computer-use-mcp — Agent Guide

Quick Reference

18 portmanteau tools. All use operation enum. Responses are ToolResult {status, message, data, recovery_tip}.

Autonomous: automation_mission(run="open Notepad, type hello, save") — decomposes, executes, retries, verifies. Smart: automation_smart(click="the Save button") — finds element by intent across all windows. Macros: automation_macro(record=true) → run tools → stop() → replay(). Watchers: automation_watch(start, condition="window_appears", target="Update"). Telemetry: automation_system(telemetry) — query failure patterns per tool. Workflows: automation_mission(workflow, actions=[...], app="notepad.exe").

Safety

  • Read docs/SAFETY.md first
  • Mutating actions require HITL approval (bypass with WINDOWS_COMPUTER_USE_MCP_BYPASS_HITL=1)
  • Face and keylogger are opt-in (off by default)

Entry Point

uv run windows-computer-use-mcp → windows_computer_use_mcp.main:main

Fleet

  • mcp-central-docs for fleet-wide standards
  • Pair with virtualization-mcp for sandbox isolation
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
