No screenshots, no vision loop. It read the accessibility tree in Slack, found the message field by name among 150 elements, typed, and hit enter. Native Swift, end to end.

Free forever. MIT licensed. Native macOS, no browser engine.

I tried Osaurus, but I was completely overwhelmed by the huge number of settings. Honestly, your settings are terrifying. There are so many controls, and the wording is super technical. It’s the total opposite of the chat interface and overall branding, which looks friendly and easy to use.

We added a configuration agent which you can talk to. Whatever configuration you need, just ask for it

Here something u can add that can change this Use agent browser by vercel most apps are electron based it like you control the browser, i have tested it to control most apps including slack plus they have CDP you use your current session either chrome or arc instead of private one

I spent more time with it and it quickly became my favorite app to run LLMs locally. The extra work needed to go full native definitely paid off judging by how everything runs so smooth. I wish I had a beefier Mac to run bigger models, but I'm definitely planning to upgrade soon!

accessibility tree is great until an app draws custom controls they just don't exist in the tree. half the apps i tested this approach on were basically invisible to it.

It's a huge challenge. The biggest challenge is working with electron apps. We wrote our own evals suite to test across different apps, electrons included. It also includes it's own internal telemetry (not sent to us) to collect data for future training use.

native swift driving the a11y tree is exactly the right call. reliability angle is what kills most of these projects tho, how's error recovery when the target app updates and shifts nodes

Osaurus's profile picture
Osaurus4 months ago

It honestly depends on the model. We added our own Eval suites to test all cases, we're seeing positive recovery stats from even smaller local models

consistency my issue with Browser/Computer Use is SPEED. is this higher optimization upside? what's the point other than it sounds cool?

Does it always come with its own GUI or can I use it with Open WebUI?

Osaurus's profile picture
Osaurus4 months ago

It does come with its own GUI but you can also use any other UI. It exposes the local server that can connect to other harnesses as well.

Reading the accessibility tree instead of relying on a vision model is a clever way to skip a ton of overhead.
