use-appclaw-agent-cli

use-appclaw-agent-cli is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from appclawhq/AppClaw. It costs 74 tokens per session (710 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command-line tool guide for opening, inspecting, and controlling a mobile app directly from a terminal. It describes one-off actions such as tapping, typing, scrolling, and checking whether elements are visible.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for interactive mobile checks such as opening an app, finding controls, filling fields, scrolling, tapping buttons, and confirming visible results.
Why use it?
It helps inspect or operate an app without first creating a reusable automation file. Snapshots and durable element references make actions easier to target and verify.

Token cost

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

use-appclaw-agent-cli 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 53 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AppClaw Agent CLI

When the user asks you to operate or inspect a mobile device interactively (open an app, tap a button, check visibility, etc.) using terminal commands rather than a YAML flow:

  1. Verify that appclaw-agent is installed and run appclaw-agent help workflow.
  2. Use a descriptive named session for the task.
  3. Inspect with snapshot -i --json before choosing a target.
  4. Prefer returned @eN references or durable selectors for interaction.
  5. Request a new snapshot after each state-changing action.
  6. Use --vision only when explicitly requested or when visual targeting is required and configured.

Scrolling — direction reference

Always use scroll, never swipe. scroll and swipe are aliases in the parser, but scroll reads unambiguously — scroll down means scroll down, scroll up means scroll up.

Goal Command
See content below (scroll down) appclaw-agent --session <name> scroll down --json
See content above (scroll up) appclaw-agent --session <name> scroll up --json
Scroll down within an element appclaw-agent --session <name> scroll @eN down --json
Scroll up within an element appclaw-agent --session <name> scroll @eN up --json

Never use swipeswipe up is ambiguous (training data says it scrolls down; AppClaw treats it as scroll up). Using scroll eliminates the confusion entirely.

Never use swipe @eN direction — element-scoped swipe crashes (swipeElement is not a function). Use scroll @eN direction instead. 7. Close the named session when the task is complete.

Assertions must always be visual

Never use DOM presence (is visible, snapshot element checks) as the sole assertion. The DOM may contain elements that are off-screen, scrolled out of view, or clipped — DOM presence does not mean the user can see it.

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.
