Macbeth — Open-source Computer Use for macOS

Give the agent you already use hands and eyes on your Mac.

See and operate Mac applications through MCP or TypeScript, including native and Electron interfaces.

Structured UI access when possible. Screenshots and OCR when necessary.
Think Playwright for your entire Mac.

_{Simulated walkthrough of Macbeth's current MCP tool surface: System Settings, Electron interaction, and screenshot/OCR.}

Quickstart · Examples · Why Macbeth? · TypeScript · Security · Skills

Quickstart

Give Claude Code access to Macbeth:

claude mcp add macbeth -- npx -y macbeth

Then ask it to verify the connection:

Using Macbeth, list the running applications, connect to Finder, inspect its front window, and summarize the first few controls you can see. Do not perform any other actions.

Macbeth ships with a prebuilt, signed and notarized universal daemon. No Swift toolchain or manual service installation is required. If setup fails, run npx macbeth doctor; it prints a self-contained diagnostic prompt you can paste back into your agent.

Any MCP client that can launch a stdio server can use npx -y macbeth. See MCP setup for generic configuration, updates, and the complete tool list.

Let your agent guide the installation

Add Macbeth as an MCP server using npx -y macbeth. Run npx macbeth doctor, guide me through granting only the permissions I need, and verify the setup by inspecting Finder. Do not take any unrelated actions.

Across your Mac

Work inside Unity, Logic Pro, and other complex tools

“In Logic Pro, set the project tempo to 128 BPM and start playback.”

Macbeth combines structured controls, menus, keyboard input, screenshots, OCR, and application-specific guidance. Logic Pro has a dedicated skill. Applications with thinner accessibility trees, including parts of Unity, can combine structured controls with keyboard, menu, screenshot, and OCR fallbacks.

Automate macOS itself

“Open System Settings, find the firewall controls, and report their current state without changing anything.”

Macbeth can inspect named controls and values, select native menu items, and use keyboard input when a semantic action is unavailable.

Use applications even when they have no API

“Open HEY, find the newest visible thread from the design team, and summarize it without sending or changing anything.”

Macbeth can work through exposed Electron interfaces even when the service does not provide the API your agent needs. HEY works through Macbeth's generic Electron support; results vary with the applicat
