CLI to orchestrate and automate graphical desktop workflows.
Project description
weavgui
Turn any vision-capable LLM into a desktop GUI operator.
weavgui provides a minimal CLI toolkit that closes the loop between seeing and acting: take an annotated screenshot, feed it to a vision model, move the mouse, and repeat — until the model clicks exactly where it needs to.
screenshot (with crosshair) → vision model analyzes image → mouse move / click → screenshot → ...
No browser required. No DOM. No accessibility tree. Just pixels and a feedback loop.

Coordinate System
Mouse and screenshot-related commands share the same coordinate convention:
- Primary-display logical coordinates (pixels)
- Origin at top-left:
(0, 0) xincreases to the right,yincreases downward- Single-display only (primary monitor)
- On macOS Retina, screenshots are downscaled to logical resolution so that pixel coordinates match mouse coordinates
