waku-computer-use

waku-computer-use is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from egoist/waku. It costs 34 tokens per session (3,547 once invoked), scanned A, original, GPL-3.0.

A computer-control skill for operating local Mac applications through their user interfaces.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect and operate Mac app screens for tasks that cannot be completed through a dedicated integration or command-line interface.
Why use it?
It helps when a task requires reading or using a Mac app directly and no more suitable connector, API, or command-line tool is available.

About the project

Waku is a native desktop application for working with local coding-agent command-line tools, keeping projects, sessions, and transcripts on the user's machine. It is for developers who use agents such as Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor CLI, or OpenCode and want one interface for their sessions. Catalogue add-ons support the Waku workflow.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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

waku-computer-use 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (pi-extension.ts), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

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.
