jev-desktop

jev-desktop is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from openwong2kim/wmux. It costs 125 tokens per session (4,225 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A desktop automation tool that takes a plain-language goal and operates an application without placing its full accessibility tree in the agent's context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Completing goals such as opening a folder or entering text, or carrying out one desktop action at a time.
Why use it?
It reduces the amount of screen-structure data the agent must handle while still observing the result after each action.

Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is node scripts/jev/run.mjs --app Finder "open the Applications folder".

Good fit Completing goals such as opening a folder or entering text, or carrying out one desktop action at a time.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

jev-desktop 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 yesterday.

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 — 286 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

jev-desktop

This skill requires a clone of the agent-desktop repository (the scripts live in scripts/jev/ and ship in no installed package) and a TYPESAFE_API_KEY.

Two entry points over the same screen reading. run.mjs takes a goal and drives until it is met. act.mjs takes one step and hands the plan back to you. Neither puts the tree in your context.

The loop

node scripts/jev/run.mjs --app Finder "open the Applications folder"
node scripts/jev/run.mjs --app TextEdit --cursor --text "A line to write." "write the supplied sentence into the document"

Each turn reads the screen, asks for one operation and a target for that operation in the same request, carries it out, and reads again. It prints one JSON line per turn and one when it stops (shown trimmed).

{"turn":{"step":1,"operation":"CLICK","target":"treeitem \"Applications\"",
         "confidence":1,"ok":true,"delivery":"delivered_verified","changed":true}}
{"stop":"done","confidence":0.96}

The operations are CLICK, TYPE_TEXT, CHECK, UNCHECK, EXPAND, COLLAPSE, SCROLL, DRILL, WIDEN, WAIT, DONE and BLOCKED. Only the ones something on screen can receive are offered: DRILL for a region that reports it holds more, WIDEN only after a DRILL. SCROLL always scrolls down. delivery is waited for WAIT and looked for DRILL and WIDEN.

The target is asked once per operation. click_target is chosen from the elements that advertise Click, type_text_target from those that advertise SetValue, and so on. Only the head matching the chosen operation is read, so a target can never be incompatible with the verb that acts on it.

Looking is an operation. A window is read with --skeleton first, so a dense document costs the same first look as a small panel. A region that was cut off reports how much it holds, and DRILL pins it as the root for later turns. WIDEN gives the whole window back.

CHECK and UNCHECK instead of a toggle. Both are idempotent: a box already in the wanted state stays there.

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.
