lahfir, I vouched your (currently still dead) comment because it was interesting to me. I expect the reason it is dead is that it seems LLM-generated (you "quietly" launched it on github? Who says that?). Also, your comment claims that the tool is cross-platform and implies that it works on Mac, Windows, and Linux, but the graphic on the github README says it only works on Mac.

This is big if it works. Nice job!

Looks interesting but like every single one of these computer use apps I've seen, it's macOS only. Does anyone know of a linux one?
