Vercel Labs released agent-desktop, an open-source Rust project that gives any AI agent reliable computer use on the desktop. Instead of guessing from pixels, it reads an app's real UI structure through OS accessibility trees, keeping element references stable and actions safe to retry. It exposes an MCP interface and currently targets macOS. The project hit GitHub trending with 7,870 stars, gaining 2,243 in a single day.
