From the SKILL.md

# computer-use Use DeepChat's plugin-provided Computer Use tools as the only action surface for this skill. Do not ask the user to install `cua-driver`, configure an external server, or put anything on PATH for the bundled DeepChat plugin. ## Runtime Context - Plugin id: `${OWNER_PLUGIN_ID}`. - Plugin root: `${PLUGIN_ROOT}`. - Process arch: `${PROCESS_ARCH}`. - Supported targets: `darwin/arm64`, `darwin/x64`, `win32/x64`, `win32/arm64`, `linux/x64`. - Unsupported targets: `linux/arm64`. - macOS runtime bundle: packaged builds prefer `DeepChat.app/Contents/Helpers/DeepChat Computer Use.app`; the plugin-local fallback is `${PLUGIN_ROOT}/runtime/darwin/${PROCESS_ARCH}/DeepChat Computer Use.app`. - Windows helper binary: `${PLUGIN_ROOT}/runtime/win32/${PROCESS_ARCH}/cua-driver.exe`. - Linux helper binary: `${PLUGIN_ROOT}/runtime/linux/${PROCESS_ARCH}/cua-driver`. ## Required Loop 1. Declare one stable run identity with `start_session({ session, capture_scope: "auto" })`. Reuse that `session` value for every state and action call whose advertised schema declares it. Omit `cursor_theme` during normal session setup. 2. Resolve the app with `list_apps`. Match localized names, English names

About this skill
What does the computer-use skill do?

Drive native desktop apps through DeepChat's built-in Computer Use tools. Use when the user asks to operate, inspect, automate, or perform a GUI task in a real desktop application.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add ThinkInAIXYZ/deepchat --skill computer-use --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From ThinkInAIXYZ/deepchat, a repository with 6,191 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
