What it does

Gooeypi Computer Use is an agent skill from am-will/gooey-pi. Drive native applications on macOS, Windows, or Linux through the separately installed TryCUA driver CLI.

Its SKILL.md is about 370 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Desktop control. It works with Linux and macOS. The repository describes itself as: Desktop workspace for Pi, OMP, and Prime Agent. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Desktop control

Example prompts

  • “/gooeypi-computer-use”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Declare the narrowest session scope and exact desired postcondition.
  2. Select the exact process and window.
  3. Take a fresh state snapshot immediately before every action.
  4. Prefer a snapshot-bound accessibility target, then pixels, foreground delivery, and desktop scope only as evidence requires.
  5. Verify the postcondition from fresh state after every action. Successful delivery alone is not task success.
  6. Never reuse element tokens or browser references after a newer snapshot, navigation, reconnect, or browser lifecycle change.
  7. End the session when the task finishes.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 459c996. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Gooeypi Computer Use loads about 370 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 185 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~370

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Computer Use | TryCUA

Use the executable in GOOEYPI_CUA_DRIVER_PATH for native GUI work. GooeyPi does not bundle TryCUA and this capability does not require an MCP server.

Invoke tools with an argv-safe shell call shaped as:

text
"$GOOEYPI_CUA_DRIVER_PATH" <snake_case_tool> '<JSON object>'

Start with doctor, list-tools, or describe <tool> when the live surface is unclear. Prefer a non-GUI API, CLI, or filesystem operation when the requested result does not actually live in an application's UI.

For GUI actions:

  1. Declare the narrowest session scope and exact desired postcondition.
  2. Select the exact process and window.
  3. Take a fresh state snapshot immediately before every action.
  4. Prefer a snapshot-bound accessibility target, then pixels, foreground delivery, and desktop scope only as evidence requires.
  5. Verify the postcondition from fresh state after every action. Successful delivery alone is not task success.
  6. Never reuse element tokens or browser references after a newer snapshot, navigation, reconnect, or browser lifecycle change.
  7. End the session when the task finishes.

On Prime Agent, the same CLI may be invoked with Python subprocess.run([...], shell=False) when a shell tool is unavailable. Never interpolate untrusted text into a shell command.
