tauri-control

AI agent skill for controlling Tauri desktop apps via HTTP.

Like Chrome DevTools Protocol, but for Tauri — no Playwright/Puppeteer needed.

Install the skill

npx skills add Ataraxy-Labs/tauri-control

Works with 30+ AI agents: Amp, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Cline, Gemini CLI, and more.

What it does

Once installed, your AI agent can control a running Tauri app via natural language:

• "Take a screenshot of the app"
• "Click the Submit button"
• "Fill in the email field with test@example.com"
• "Intercept network requests to /api/users"

The agent translates these into curl commands to an HTTP bridge running on localhost:9876.

Prerequisites

Your Tauri app needs the tauri-plugin-agent-control plugin:

cargo add tauri-plugin-agent-control

Then register it in src-tauri/src/lib.rs:

tauri::Builder::default()
    .plugin(tauri_plugin_agent_control::init())

Add the capability in src-tauri/capabilities/default.json:

{
  "permissions": ["agent-control:default"]
}

Run cargo tauri dev — the HTTP bridge starts automatically on port 9876 (debug builds only).
