Overview
Open Computer Use is an open-source MCP server that gives an AI agent control of desktop apps on macOS, Linux and Windows. It reads each app's interface through accessibility data and screenshots, then clicks, types and presses keys for the agent. You install it with npm, grant permissions on a Mac, and run one command to add it to Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI or opencode. It suits people who want an agent to finish tasks in apps that have no API.
It brings the desktop-control approach of OpenAI's Codex Computer Use to any MCP client, as open source.
Try these first

Capabilities
From the creator's documentation.
| Toolset | What your agent can do | Access |
|---|---|---|
| App list | Lists the apps that are open on your computer | Your computer |
| App state | Reads an app's interface elements and takes screenshots | Your computer |
| Clicks and typing | Clicks, types and presses keys in the app you name | Your computer |
| Agent setup | One command adds it to Codex, Claude Code, Gemini CLI or opencode | Your config files |
| Locked Use | Optional on Mac: keeps working while the screen is locked, behind a full-screen shield | System settings |
Good to know
Hand an agent a task inside a desktop app, such as typing a note in TextEdit. It lists the open apps, reads the window's interface and then clicks and types step by step.
Limits
- The agent acts with your mouse and keyboard in real apps, so a mistake can change or send things. Start in an app with nothing important open.
- Locked Use is an opt-in Mac feature that installs system components and changes lock-screen authorization; leave it off unless you need it.
