+# Computer Use Built-In Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Make `open-computer-use` a zero-config built-in capability in qwen-code. 9 computer-use tools appear in the deferred tool list as `computer_use__click`, `computer_use__type_text`, etc. First invocation transparently installs the upstream npm binary, walks the user through macOS Accessibility / Screen Recording permissions if needed, and forwards the call to the upstream MCP server.
+
+**Architecture:** Thin shell over upstream `npx -y open-computer-use mcp`. We do NOT bundle the binary; upstream's `npx` cache + `.app` bundle handles distribution and macOS TCC. 9 tools are registered as parameterized `ComputerUseTool` instances (one per tool name) backed by a singleton `ComputerUseClient` that owns a long-running MCP stdio child process. Bootstrap state machine layers on top: standard qwen-code tool permission (existing) → first-time install confirm → optional macOS permission guide.
+
+**Tech Stack:** TypeScript, vitest, `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` (already a qwen-code dep), `node:child_process`, `node:fs/promises`.

+## File Structure
+
+**New files:**
+
+```
+packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/
+  index.ts                          # registerComputerUseTools(registry, config); barrel export
+  schemas.ts                        # hardcoded 9 schemas + descriptions (synced from upstream)
+  tool.ts                           # ComputerUseTool — parameterized BaseDeclarativeTool
+  client.ts                         # ComputerUseClient — singleton MCP stdio process manager
+  bootstrap.ts                      # state machine: probe → install confirm → install → perm guide
+  install-state.ts                  # ~/.qwen/computer-use/installed.json read/write
+  permission-detector.ts            # parse upstream error strings to detect missing perms
+  schemas.test.ts                   # all 9 schemas parse, names match contract
+  tool.test.ts                      # parameterized tool wiring
+  client.test.ts                    # client lifecycle (mocked spawn)
+  bootstrap.test.ts                 # state machine transitions
+  install-state.test.ts             # state file round-trip
+  permission-detector.test.ts       # error pattern matching
+scripts/
+  sync-computer-use-schemas.ts      # release-time script: dump upstream tools/list → schemas.ts
+```
+
+**Modified files:**
+
+```
+packages/core/src/tools/tool-names.ts                  # add 9 COMPUTER_USE_* constants
+packages/core/src/config/config.ts                     # add computerUseEnabled field + isComputerUseEnabled() + register call in createToolRegistry()
+packages/cli/src/config/config.ts                      # map settings.tools.computerUse.enabled → ConfigParameters.computerUseEnabled
+packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts              # add tools.computerUse.enabled boolean (default true)
+```
+
+**Decomposition rationale:** Each file has one responsibility. `client.ts` knows MCP protocol but not UX; `bootstrap.ts` knows UX but doesn't touch MCP details; `tool.ts` is pure plumbing that wires them via `execute()`. Tests live next to code. Schemas are isolated so the sync script can rewrite the file without churning logic.
+

+
+## Phase 1 — Foundation (tool surface visible, no execution)
+
+### Task 1: Add ToolNames + ToolDisplayNames entries for 9 computer-use tools
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `packages/core/src/tools/tool-names.ts`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add the 9 name constants**
+
+Edit `packages/core/src/tools/tool-names.ts` — inside the `ToolNames` object, after `EXIT_WORKTREE: 'exit_worktree',`:
+
+```ts
+  // Computer Use tools — built-in but backed by an upstream MCP server.
+  // All deferred; revealed only when the user-initiated request triggers
+  // a computer-use action. See packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/.
+  COMPUTER_USE_LIST_APPS: 'computer_use__list_apps',
+  COMPUTER_USE_GET_APP_STATE: 'computer_use__get_app_state',
+  COMPUTER_USE_CLICK: 'computer_use__click',
+  COMPUTER_USE_PERFORM_SECONDARY_ACTION: 'computer_use__perform_secondary_action',
+  COMPUTER_USE_SCROLL: 'computer_use__scroll',
+  COMPUTER_USE_DRAG: 'computer_use__drag',
+  COMPUTER_USE_TYPE_TEXT: 'computer_use__type_text',
+  COMPUTER_USE_PRESS_KEY: 'computer_use__press_key',
+  COMPUTER_USE_SET_VALUE: 'computer_use__set_value',
+```
+
+Mirror in `ToolDisplayNames`:
+
+```ts
+  COMPUTER_USE_LIST_APPS: 'computer_use__list_apps',
+  COMPUTER_USE_GET_APP_STATE: 'computer_use__get_app_state',
+  COMPUTER_USE_CLICK: 'computer_use__click',
+  COMPUTER_USE_PERFORM_SECONDARY_ACTION: 'computer_use__perform_secondary_action',
+  COMPUTER_USE_SCROLL: 'computer_use__scroll',
+  COMPUTER_USE_DRAG: 'computer_use__drag',
+  COMPUTER_USE_TYPE_TEXT: 'computer_use__type_text',
+  COMPUTER_USE_PRESS_KEY: 'computer_use__press_key',
+  COMPUTER_USE_SET_VALUE: 'computer_use__set_value',
+```
+
+(displayName == name on purpose; we don't want capitalized display names like `Click` showing in the permission dialog when the tool name is `computer_use__click`.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Verify the existing tool-names test still passes**
+
+Run: `npm test -- packages/core/src/tools/tool-names`
+Expected: PASS (if there's no test file, run `npm run build -- --filter @qwen-code/qwen-code-core` to typecheck)
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add packages/core/src/tools/tool-names.ts
+git commit -m "feat(computer-use): add tool name constants"
+```
+
+---
+
+### Task 2: Hardcoded schemas module
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.ts`
+- Create: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.test.ts`
+
+The 9 schemas mirror upstream `open-computer-use mcp` `tools/list` output. These are pinned to upstream version `^0.x.y` (TODO: fill in the actual pin at the top of `schemas.ts` when implementing — run `npx -y open-computer-use@latest --version` to capture the current latest).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+Create `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.test.ts`:
+
+```ts
+import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest';
+import { COMPUTER_USE_SCHEMAS, COMPUTER_USE_TOOL_NAMES } from './schemas.js';
+
+describe('computer-use schemas', () => {
+  it('exports exactly 9 schemas', () => {
+    expect(Object.keys(COMPUTER_USE_SCHEMAS)).toHaveLength(9);
+  });
+
+  it('each tool name matches the upstream convention (no computer_use__ prefix)', () => {
+    // schemas.ts uses upstream names verbatim ("click", "type_text").
+    // The computer_use__ prefix lives on the qwen-code-facing wrapper.
+    for (const name of COMPUTER_USE_TOOL_NAMES) {
+      expect(name).not.toContain('computer_use__');
+      expect(name).toMatch(/^[a-z_]+$/);
+    }
+  });
+
+  it('every schema has the standard object structure', () => {
+    for (const [name, schema] of Object.entries(COMPUTER_USE_SCHEMAS)) {
+      expect(schema.description, `${name} missing description`).toBeTruthy();
+      expect(
+        schema.parameterSchema,
+        `${name} missing parameterSchema`,
+      ).toBeTruthy();
+      expect((schema.parameterSchema as { type: string }).type).toBe('object');
+    }
+  });
+
+  it('list_apps takes no parameters', () => {
+    expect(COMPUTER_USE_SCHEMAS.list_apps.parameterSchema).toEqual({
+      type: 'object',
+      properties: {},
+      additionalProperties: false,
+    });
+  });
+
+  it('click requires app and either element_index or x/y', () => {
+    const schema = COMPUTER_USE_SCHEMAS.click.parameterSchema as {
+      properties: Record<string, unknown>;
+      required: string[];
+    };
+    expect(schema.properties).toHaveProperty('app');
+    expect(schema.properties).toHaveProperty('element_index');
+    expect(schema.properties).toHaveProperty('x');
+    expect(schema.properties).toHaveProperty('y');
+    expect(schema.required).toContain('app');
+  });
+});
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run test to verify it fails**
+
+Run: `npm test -- packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.test.ts`
+Expected: FAIL with "Cannot find module './schemas.js'"
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Write the schemas module**
+
+Create `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.ts`. The schemas below are MVP — they reflect upstream's tool surface and parameter naming. The `sync-computer-use-schemas.ts` script (Task 13) will regenerate this file from a live upstream snapshot in CI before each qwen-code release.

+### Task 3: Settings schema + Config wiring for enableComputerUse
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts`
+- Modify: `packages/cli/src/config/config.ts`
+- Modify: `packages/core/src/config/config.ts`
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Add settings entry**
+
+Edit `packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts`. The existing schema groups things by category. Computer Use is a tool capability, not experimental — add a new `tools` subgroup IF it doesn't exist, or add to the existing one. Use grep:
+
+```bash
+grep -n "tools:" packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts | head -5
+```
+
+If a `tools:` key exists, add a new property under it. If not, add a top-level group. Pattern (add near where the `experimental.cron` entry lives, line ~2298):
+
+```ts
+  tools: {
+    type: 'object',
+    label: 'Tools',
+    category: 'Tools',
+    requiresRestart: true,
+    default: {},
+    description: 'Tool capability toggles.',
+    showInDialog: false,
+    properties: {
+      computerUse: {
+        type: 'object',
+        label: 'Computer Use',
+        category: 'Tools',
+        requiresRestart: true,
+        default: {},
+        description: 'Cross-platform desktop automation via the upstream open-computer-use MCP server. Tools: list_apps, get_app_state, click, type_text, scroll, drag, press_key, perform_secondary_action, set_value. On first invocation, the upstream binary is fetched via npx and the user is walked through macOS Accessibility / Screen Recording permissions if needed.',
+        showInDialog: false,
+        properties: {
+          enabled: {
+            type: 'boolean',
+            label: 'Enable Computer Use',
+            category: 'Tools',
+            requiresRestart: true,
+            default: true,
+            description: 'When enabled (default), the 9 computer_use__* tools are registered as deferred built-ins.',
+            showInDialog: true,
+          },
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+```
+
+If a `tools:` group already exists, just add the `computerUse:` property under its `properties`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Wire settings → ConfigParameters**
+
+Edit `packages/cli/src/config/config.ts`. Find the existing line `cronEnabled: settings.experimental?.cron ?? false,` (around line 1833). Add directly below:
+
+```ts
+    computerUseEnabled: settings.tools?.computerUse?.enabled ?? true,
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add Config field + getter**
+
+Edit `packages/core/src/config/config.ts`:
+
+(a) In `ConfigParameters` interface (search for `cronEnabled?: boolean;`), add directly below:
+
+```ts
+  computerUseEnabled?: boolean;
+```
+
+(b) In the `Config` class fields (search for `private readonly cronEnabled: boolean = false;`), add directly below:
+
+```ts
+  private readonly computerUseEnabled: boolean = true;
+```
+
+(c) In the `Config` constructor (search for `this.cronEnabled = params.cronEnabled ?? false;`), add directly below:
+
+```ts
+this.computerUseEnabled = params.computerUseEnabled ?? true;
+```
+
+(d) Near `isCronEnabled()` (search for `isCronEnabled(): boolean {`), add a sibling getter:
+
+```ts
+  isComputerUseEnabled(): boolean {
+    return this.computerUseEnabled;
+  }
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Typecheck**
+
+Run: `npm run build -- --filter @qwen-code/qwen-code-core --filter @qwen-code/qwen-code`
+Expected: PASS
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts packages/cli/src/config/config.ts packages/core/src/config/config.ts
+git commit -m "feat(computer-use): add enableComputerUse setting (default true)"

+## Phase 2 — Transport (MCP client over npx stdio)
+
+### Task 4: ComputerUseClient — singleton MCP stdio process manager
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/client.ts`
+- Create: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/client.test.ts`
+
+Note: The client uses `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` (already a dep, see `packages/core/src/tools/mcp-client.ts`). We use `StdioClientTransport` to spawn `npx -y open-computer-use mcp`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing test**
+
+Create `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/client.test.ts`:
+
+```ts
+import { describe, it, expect, vi, beforeEach } from 'vitest';
+import { ComputerUseClient } from './client.js';
+
+describe('ComputerUseClient', () => {

+    );
+  }
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Wire into Config.createToolRegistry**
+
+Edit `packages/core/src/config/config.ts`. Find the existing block that registers cron tools conditionally (around line 3952):
+
+```ts
+    if (this.isCronEnabled()) {
+      await registerLazy(ToolNames.CRON_CREATE, async () => { ... });
+      ...
+    }

+
+Directly below the cron block (and before the monitor block), add:
+
+```ts
+// Register computer-use tools unless disabled.
+// All 9 are deferred — they surface only via ToolSearch keyword
+// match (see packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/).
+if (this.isComputerUseEnabled()) {
+  const { registerComputerUseTools } = await import(
+    '../tools/computer-use/index.js'
+  );
+  registerComputerUseTools(registry);
+}
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Add a registration test**
+
+Append to the existing tool-registry tests OR create `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/registration.test.ts`:
+
+```ts
+import { describe, it, expect, vi } from 'vitest';
+import { registerComputerUseTools } from './index.js';
+import { COMPUTER_USE_TOOL_NAMES } from './schemas.js';
+

+
+### Task 7: Manual smoke — tools appear and a happy-path call works
+
+This is a non-coding gate. Verifies the foundation works before piling on the bootstrap UX.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Pre-install upstream binary (one-time, manual)**
+
+Run in a terminal:
+
+```bash
+npx -y open-computer-use@latest --version
+```
+
+On macOS: also run `npx -y open-computer-use@latest doctor` and grant any prompted permissions. This bypasses our bootstrap so we can verify the transport layer in isolation.
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Build qwen-code**
+
+Run: `npm run build`
+Expected: PASS.
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Launch qwen-code and test discovery**
+
+Start qwen-code, then ask the model: _"Use the ToolSearch tool with query 'click computer use' to find any desktop automation tools available."_
+
+Expected: ToolSearch returns 9 `computer_use__*` schemas.
+
+- [ ] **Step 4: Test a no-permission tool**
+
+Ask: _"List the desktop apps currently running using the computer_use\_\_list_apps tool."_
+
+Expected: First call has a few seconds of "Starting Computer Use..." (or longer if npx cache is cold), then returns a list of running apps. Subsequent calls in the same session are fast.
+
+- [ ] **Step 5: No commit needed; this is a smoke gate**
+
+If anything fails here, STOP and debug before moving to Phase 3.

+### Task 10: Bootstrap state machine — full UX flow
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/bootstrap.ts` (replace stub from Task 5)
+- Create: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/bootstrap.test.ts`
+
+The state machine has three sub-flows:
+
+1. **First-time install**: if `isPackageSpecApproved` is false, prompt the user, install, persist approval.
+2. **Spawn**: ensure the client is started.
+3. **Permission probe + guide** (macOS only): if a permission error surfaces, spawn `open-computer-use doctor`, poll for grant up to 10 min, retry.
+
+Note: the actual "ask user a question mid-execution" mechanic in qwen-code uses the existing tool-confirmation framework. **IMPLEMENTER**: before writing this task's implementation, grep for `shouldConfirmExecute` in `packages/core/src/tools/` to see how `shell.ts` / similar do confirmation. This task assumes that mechanic is available; if it isn't, swap in `process.stderr.write` + read from `process.stdin` for the install confirm (acceptable v0 UX).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Investigate confirmation patterns**
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+grep -rn "shouldConfirmExecute\|ToolConfirmation" packages/core/src/tools --include="*.ts" | grep -v ".test." | head -20
+```
+
+Read at least one tool that uses the confirmation pattern (likely `shell.ts`). Decide: does `ToolInvocation` have a `shouldConfirmExecute()` method or similar?
+
+If YES: use it for the install confirm.
+If NO: use the v0 fallback (stderr + `ask_user_question` tool if exposed, else throw a specific error code the model can re-issue after user grant).
+
+Document your choice in a code comment at the top of `bootstrap.ts`.

+### Task 11: Wire the real `promptInstallApproval` to qwen-code's confirm system
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/bootstrap.ts`
+- Possibly: `packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/tool.ts`
+
+This is the task with the most variable scope. **IMPLEMENTER**: read the investigation result from Task 10 step 1 and wire accordingly. Two scenarios:
+
+**Scenario A** — `BaseToolInvocation` supports `shouldConfirmExecute()`:
+
+- Override `shouldConfirmExecute()` in `ComputerUseInvocation` to return the install-confirm payload when the package isn't yet approved.
+- The framework will surface the confirm UI; on approval, `execute()` proceeds.
+- `bootstrap.ts` then only handles the post-confirm path (write state, start, permission probe).
+
+**Scenario B** — no in-execute confirm pathway:
+
+- Keep the stderr+stdin v0 from Task 10. Document loudly in the README and SKILL.md.
+- File a follow-up task to add a proper confirm pathway (separate PR).
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Implement chosen scenario**
+
+(Concrete code depends on the investigation; defer detail to implementer.)
+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Manual smoke**
+
+Wipe install state:
+
+```bash
+rm -rf ~/.qwen/computer-use
+```
+
+Launch qwen-code and ask a computer-use question. Confirm the install prompt appears in the chosen UX (confirm dialog or stderr) and that approving it persists state correctly.

+npm run build
+# launch qwen-code, ask a computer-use question
+```
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Verify the full flow**
+
+Expected sequence:
+
+1. Install prompt appears.
+2. After approval, download progress streams via `updateOutput`.
+3. Permission warning appears, doctor window opens.
+4. After granting permissions in System Settings, the tool call resumes automatically.
+5. Result returns.
+
+If any step fails, capture the error and stop. Iterate.
+

+
+## Phase 4 — Tooling / Maintenance
+
+### Task 13: Schema sync script
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `scripts/sync-computer-use-schemas.ts`
+
+Runs as part of qwen-code release prep. Spawns `npx -y open-computer-use@<pin> mcp`, sends `tools/list`, regenerates `schemas.ts`.
+
+- [ ] **Step 1: Create the script**
+
+Create `scripts/sync-computer-use-schemas.ts`:
+
+```ts
+#!/usr/bin/env tsx
+/**
+ * Regenerate packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.ts from a
+ * live upstream open-computer-use MCP server.
+ *
+ * Usage:
+ *   npx tsx scripts/sync-computer-use-schemas.ts [packageSpec]
+ *
+ * Defaults packageSpec to `open-computer-use@latest`. The pin written
+ * into the generated file is whatever spec was used — pass an explicit
+ * pin (e.g. `open-computer-use@0.3.5`) for release builds.
+ */

+
+- [ ] **Step 2: Run it once manually to verify**
+
+```bash
+npx tsx scripts/sync-computer-use-schemas.ts open-computer-use@latest
+```
+
+Expected: schemas.ts is rewritten; `npm test -- packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.test.ts` still passes (or fails only on tests that asserted specific hand-written content — adjust those tests if upstream descriptions changed).
+
+- [ ] **Step 3: Commit**
+
+```bash
+git add scripts/sync-computer-use-schemas.ts packages/core/src/tools/computer-use/schemas.ts
+git commit -m "chore(computer-use): script to sync schemas from upstream"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Self-Review Checklist (after writing all tasks)
+
+- [ ] Every step has either: a code block, an exact command, or a clearly-deferrable IMPLEMENTER note with rationale.
+- [ ] All 9 tool names use the `computer_use__` prefix consistently across schemas, tool wrapper, and registration.
+- [ ] No reference to MCP / mcp\_\_/ DiscoveredMCPTool leaks into user-facing strings.
+- [ ] Bootstrap state machine has explicit timeouts (no infinite polls).
+- [ ] `enableComputerUse` defaults to `true` per the user's decision.
+- [ ] Tests cover: schema integrity, name prefixing, deferral, client lifecycle, install state persistence, permission detection, all bootstrap state transitions.
+- [ ] Manual smoke gates (Task 7, Task 12) are explicit — no silent claims of "it works".
+
+---
+
+## Out of Scope (deferred to follow-up PRs)
+
+- Idle timeout for the MCP server process (resource savings; v0 keeps it alive until qwen-code exits).
+- Telemetry on bootstrap failures (network failure vs gatekeeper vs permission timeout breakdowns).
+- Offline install path / cached tarball support.
+- Capability probe before reveal (currently failure surfaces at first-call time).
+- Upstream PR for typed errorKind on permissionDenied (user deferred).
+- Restart MCP server after permission grant (user wants real-world test first to decide if needed).
+- Per-tool granular permission gating (e.g. allow read-only `list_apps` / `get_app_state` without confirming every call).
+
+---
+
+## Execution Handoff
+
+Plan saved to `docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-28-computer-use-built-in.md`.
+
+Two execution options:
+
+1. **Subagent-Driven (recommended)** — dispatch a fresh subagent per task, two-stage review between tasks, fast iteration.
+2. **Inline Execution** — execute tasks in this session with checkpoints for review.
+
+Which approach?
