In plain words
Agent.exe is a cross-platform application that enables Claude 3.5 Sonnet to control a user's machine. The tool is designed for developers and users who want to delegate system tasks to an AI assistant. It launched on GitHub in October 2024 and allows the AI model to interact directly with the computer's operating system and applications through a programmatic interface.

Note : please consider this project a proof of concept. I don't intend to maintain it or merge pull requests. Feel free to fork and build it into something great! Presenting Agent.exe : the easiest way to let Claude's new computer use capabilities take over your computer! I wanted to see how good Claude's new computer use APIs were, and the default project they provided felt too heavyweight. This is a simple Electron app that lets Claude 3.5 Sonnet control your local computer directly. I was planning on adding a "semi-auto" mode where the user has to confirm each action before it executes, but each step is so slow I found that wasn't necessary and if the model is getting confused you can…from github.com

Claude Code and Claude 3.7 Sonnet 2025 · anthropic.com · ▲875Claude Opus 4.7 is Anthropic's most capable generally available model, released April 16, 2026. It outperforms Opus 4.6, GPT-5.4, and Gemini 3.1 Pro on key benchmarks including agentic coding, multidisciplinary reasoning, scaled tool use, and agentic computer use. It is benchmarked below Claude Mythos Preview — which remains restricted to Project Glasswing partners. https://vucense.com/ai-intelligence/ai-tools/claude-opus-4-7...


Agent-of-empires: OpenCode and Claude Code session managerJan 2026 · github.com · ▲118Hi! I’m Nathan: an ML Engineer at Mozilla.ai: I built agent-of-empires (aoe): a CLI application to help you manage all of your running Claude Code/Opencode sessions and know when they are waiting for you. - Written in rust and relies on tmux for security and reliability - Monitors state of cli sessions to tell you when an agent is running vs idle vs waiting for your input - Manage sessions by naming them, grouping them, configuring profiles for various settings I'm passionate about getting self-hosted open-weight LLMs to be valid options to compete with proprietary closed models.

Agent-desktop – Native desktop automation CLI for AI agentsMay 2026 · github.com · ▲99I've been building computer-use tools for a while, and I quietly launched this about a month ago (122 Stars on GH). I figured it was worth sharing here. Over the last few months, a lot of computer-use agents have come out: Codex, Claude Code, CUA, and others. Most of them seem to work roughly like this: 1. Take a screenshot 2. Have the model predict pixel coordinates 3. Click x,y 4. Take another screenshot 5. Repeat That works, but it's slow, expensive in tokens, and fragile. If the UI shifts a few pixels, things break. And the model still doesn't know what any element actually is. But the…
Git for AI AgentsMay 2026 · github.com · ▲129hi guys. been working on something i think is fundamentally missing in today's workflow with ai agents. vcs. i find myself struggling with questions that agents can't answer like "why did you do it?", "when did u delete this folder? why?", etc. or trying to /rewind (after a /compact...) or basically `bisect` to find when and why something was done by the agent in the current / previous session. just like git did for code, i think we are the same core capabilities with ai agents so... i developed an open source solution for that (currently supporting claude code) would love to…
