Overview
What It Does
Desktop Control (Windows) packages a focused media & files workflow for an AI agent. Control desktop applications on Windows — launch, close, focus, resize, move windows, simulate keyboard/mouse input, manage processes, control VSCode, read clipboard, and capture screen info. Use when the user wants to interact with any running program, switch windows, type text, press shortcuts, open files in VSCode, manage running processes, or get system display information. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
