Computer is an open-source framework that enables AI agents to interact with isolated macOS and Linux sandboxes with near-native performance on Apple Silicon. It provides a PyAutoGUI-compatible Python interface compatible with OpenAI Agents SDK, LangChain, CrewAI, and AutoGen, making it ideal for solo builders deploying agents in reproducible, secure environments.

Use Cases

·Running autonomous agents in isolated environments without risking host system security
·Building reproducible testing environments for multi-step agent workflows
·Creating GUI automation agents that interact with native applications
·Prototyping general-purpose agents that need full OS-level control with safety guardrails

Key Points

·Sandbox isolation prevents host system compromise, agents operate in completely separate virtual environments
·PyAutoGUI-compatible interface plugs into existing agent frameworks (LangChain, CrewAI, AutoGen, OpenAI SDK) with minimal integration effort
·Full OS interaction via screenshot, mouse/keyboard control, clipboard access, file system operations, and shell commands
·Resource control, configure memory, CPU, and display resolution per sandbox instance
·Accessibility tree support enables agents to interact with UI elements programmatically, not just pixel-based automation
·Near-native performance on Apple Silicon through Lume Virtualization framework
