Antharmaya Agent Linux Control Agent Linux Control

Agent Linux Control

One CLI for Linux OS control. Prefer DOM/app APIs for web content; use this for desktop UI, browser chrome, dialogs, downloads, file pickers, screenshots, visual verification.

Loop

1. agent-linux-control doctor
2. agent-linux-control manifest --brief
3. agent-linux-control observe --brief --output /tmp/alc.png
4. Inspect screenshot.
5. Act once, or batch with sequence --brief.
6. Verify via wait-change --brief or observe --brief.
7. Recover/debug via journal tail.

Token Rules

• Prefer --brief for agent loops. Use full JSON only when diagnosing.
• Prefer paste over type for long text.
• Prefer sequence --brief for known multi-step plans; fewer tool calls, fewer tokens.
• If alc-daemon is running, CLI and MCP input commands auto-use it; otherwise Python /dev/uinput fallback runs.
• Prefer MCP manifest/observe/sequence with {"brief":true} when MCP available.
• Journal redacts text payloads to length + SHA-256.
• Prefer app-native APIs for real work inside apps; use desktop control for launch, dialogs, visual verification.
• For long autonomous work, prefer isolated workspace when available; direct desktop shares user pointer/focus.

Commands

• Clipboard: agent-linux-control clipboard set "text" / agent-linux-control clipboard get
• Browser: agent-linux-control browser --prefer chrome --require-prefer https://example.com
• Batch: agent-linux-control sequence --brief --file plan.json
• Daemon bench: agent-linux-control bench daemon --count 8

• Journal: agent-linux-control journal tail --lines 10
• Obsidian: agent-linux-control brain export --output-dir ./agent-linux-control-vault
• Daemon: alc-daemon serve --socket /tmp/agent-linux-control.sock

Safety

• Never type secrets, approve elevated prompts, submit payments, send messages, or delete data unless user explicitly asked for that exact action.
• Observe before/after important UI actions.
• If click misses, re-observe and recalc; do not repeat blindly.
• Wayland goto is approximate.
• If /dev/uinput not writable, ask user to run installer or enable udev rule. Do not bypass permissions.
