Computer Use

Use this skill when the task should operate through Orca's desktop computer-use surface rather than native Codex computer tools, raw AppleScript, ad hoc screenshots, or direct app internals.

Preconditions

• Prefer the public orca computer ... command.
• In this Orca worktree, use ./config/scripts/orca-dev computer ... when testing the local dev runtime.
• Prefer --json for agent-driven calls. Screenshot image bytes are omitted from JSON and written to screenshot.path when present.
• Do not push, submit forms, send messages, buy items, delete data, or change account settings unless the user explicitly asked for that specific action.
• If an app contains sensitive content, read only what the user requested and avoid unnecessary screenshots or logs.

Check runtime availability first:

orca status --json
orca computer capabilities --json
