Iphoneclaw Action Scripts

iPhoneClaw Action Scripts

Use the local script registry (action_scripts/registry.json) to give the model a low-token primitive: run_script(name=..., ...) expands into a pre-recorded .txt action script and executes the concrete actions.

Key files:

• action_scripts/registry.json: short name -> script path
• action_scripts/common/*.txt: curated scripts
• action_scripts/recorded/*.txt: recordings/exports

Priority Rules (MUST follow)

When a registered script covers the task, ALWAYS use run_script(...) instead of manually composing individual actions.

1. Launching an App -> ALWAYS use open_app_spotlight

Do NOT manually compose iphone_home(), swipe, type sequences to open an app. Instead, emit a single action:

Action: run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='<app_name>')

Examples:

Action: run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='bilibili')
Action: run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='Safari')
Action: run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='Settings')
Action: run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='WeChat')

This script does: Home -> swipe left x10 -> swipe up (Spotlight) -> type app name + Enter.

2. Return to Home & Swipe -> use iphone_home_swipe_left_10_then_down

When you need to go back to home screen and reset scroll position:

Action: run_script(name='iphone_home_swipe_left_10_then_down')

This script does: Home -> swipe left x10 + swipe down.

3. Killing / Dismissing the Current App -> use kill_app

Do NOT manually compose iphone_app_switcher() + swipe sequences to kill an app. Instead, emit a single action:

Action: run_script(name='kill_app')

This script does: Cmd+2 (App Switcher) -> swipe up on right side to dismiss the current app.

General Rule

Before composing a multi-step action sequence, check action_scripts/registry.json for an existing script that covers the flow. If one exists, use run_script(name=...). This saves tokens and is more reliable than ad-hoc action chains.

Available Scripts (Registry)

Preferred Model Output (Low Token)

When a stable flow exists, output a single action:

Action: run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='bilibili')

Notes:

• Vars can be passed as vars={...} or as keyword sugar (APP='bilibili').
• Prefer name=... (registry) over path=... (arbitrary file) for safety and portability.

Run Scripts Manually (Local)

Run a script file directly:

python -m iphoneclaw script run --file action_scripts/common/open_app_spotlight.txt --var APP=bilibili

Run Scripts Remotely (Supervisor API, Worker Paused)

Requirement: the worker must be paused and supervisor exec must be enabled (enable_supervisor_exec).

Use ctl:

python -m iphoneclaw ctl run-script --name open_app_spotlight --var APP=bilibili

This hits supervisor endpoint POST /v1/agent/script/run.

Record And Register A New Script

1. Create or record the script.

# real user behavior recording (recommended)
python -m iphoneclaw script record-user --app "iPhone Mirroring" --out action_scripts/recorded/my_flow.txt

# quick record from stdin (Ctrl-D to finish)
python -m iphoneclaw script record --out action_scripts/recorded/my_flow.txt

Or export from a previous run:

python -m iphoneclaw script from-run --run-dir runs/<run_id> --out action_scripts/recorded/<run_id>.txt

2. Add a registry entry in action_scripts/registry.json:

{
  "my_flow": "recorded/my_flow.txt"
}

3. Invoke it via model action:

Action: run_script(name='my_flow')

You can also compose scripts by nesting inside .txt:

include open_app_spotlight APP=bilibili
# or:
run_script(name='open_app_spotlight', APP='bilibili')

Registry Path Resolution

Default registry path is ./action_scripts/registry.json.

If running from a different working directory, set:

• IPHONECLAW_SCRIPT_REGISTRY=/absolute/path/to/action_scripts/registry.json
