computer-use

computer-use is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from perasyudha/Nyxora. It costs 68 tokens per session (2,755 once invoked), scanned F, a copy of computer-use, MIT.

A skill for controlling a user's desktop in the background by clicking, typing, scrolling, and dragging. It is designed to work across macOS, Windows, and Linux without moving the user's cursor or taking keyboard focus.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for operating browsers, editors, and other desktop applications, including tasks that require interacting with visual interfaces.
Why use it?
It allows desktop automation while the user continues working in another window or virtual desktop.

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 F, and why

computer-use scanned grade F with 4 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 264 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Computer Use (universal, any-model, cross-platform)

You have a computer_use tool that drives the user's desktop in the background — your actions do NOT move the user's cursor, steal keyboard focus, or switch virtual desktops / Spaces. The user can keep typing in their editor while you click around in a browser in another window. This is the opposite of pyautogui-style automation.

Everything here works with any tool-capable model — Claude, GPT, Gemini, or an open model on a local OpenAI-compatible endpoint. There is no Anthropic-native schema to learn.

Nyxora drives cua-driver under the hood for the platform plumbing. The Nyxora-side computer_use tool exposed in this skill is a higher-level Nyxora vocabulary; the raw cua-driver MCP tools (which a different agent harness would see) are NOT what you call — call the computer_use actions documented below.

The canonical workflow

Step 1 — Capture first. Almost every task starts with:

computer_use(action="capture", mode="som", app="<the app you're driving>")

Returns a screenshot with numbered overlays on every interactable element AND an AX-tree index like:

#1  AXButton 'Back' @ (12, 80, 28, 28) [Chrome]
#2  AXTextField 'Address bar' @ (80, 80, 900, 32) [Chrome]
#7  Link 'Sign In' @ (900, 420, 80, 24) [Chrome]
...

The role names match the host platform's accessibility framework (AXButton on macOS, Button on Windows UIA, push button on Linux AT-SPI) — treat them as labels, not as strict types.

Step 2 — Click by element index. This is the single most important habit:

computer_use(action="click", element=7)

Much more reliable than pixel coordinates for every model. Claude was trained on both; other models are often only reliable with indices.

Step 3 — Verify. After any state-changing action, re-capture. You can save a round-trip by asking for the post-action capture inline:

computer_use(action="click", element=7, capture_after=True)

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.

computer-use is a skill published in the GitHub repository perasyudha/Nyxora (5 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 68 tokens to every session and 2,755 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it F with 4 findings (asks for root, downloads and executes remote code, recursive force delete). It is 89% identical to computer-use, differing in 22 lines, and is treated as a copy.
