What it does
“Control terminal TUIs, browsers, and native desktop apps for testing, demos, QA, and computer-use tasks. Use when you need to operate an app, automate a CLI, record a demo, or capture proof.”
Generated summary from the skill's own text
Automate terminals, browsers, and desktop applications by routing to specialized drivers for recording, testing, and generating visual demonstrations. The skill orchestrates terminal TUIs via tuistory or real terminal emulators, web apps via agent-browser, and native GUIs via cua-driver, with optional video composition and verification stages.
When to use it
- Automate CLI tasks, terminal TUIs, or record terminal sessions for demos
- Operate web pages or Electron apps programmatically
- Control native desktop GUI applications for QA or automation
- Generate before-and-after comparison videos or polished demo recordings
When not to
- Simple shell script execution without interactive recording needs
- Tasks requiring only mock data or fixtures instead of real app behavior
- Single desktop environments where many concurrent automations would conflict
