Ghost Os

    

    

Ghost OS Full computer-use for AI agents.

---

Your AI agent can write code, run tests, search files. But it can't click a button, send an email, or fill out a form. It lives inside a chat box.

Ghost OS changes that. One install, and any AI agent can see and operate every app on your Mac.

Meet Specter

Ghost OS gives AI agents eyes and hands. Shadow gives them memory. Specter gives them a home.

Deploy persistent AI agents to dedicated VMs in 90 seconds. Automatic DNS, TLS, systemd hardening. Interactive TUI dashboard. You own the infrastructure.

AI agents that earn your trust.

Meet Shadow

Shadow is the other half of the story. Ghost OS gives AI agents eyes and hands on your Mac. Shadow gives them memory and intelligence.

14-modality capture. Proactive suggestions. Episode generation. On-device LLM inference. Computer-use training data. All local, all open source.

Your computer was paying attention the whole time.

What's New  

Self-learning recipes. Show Ghost OS how to do something once, and it remembers forever.

• ghost_learn_start -- Begin watching the user perform a task
• ghost_learn_stop -- Stop and return the enriched action sequence
• ghost_learn_status -- Check recording progress

The user performs the task manually (clicking, typing, switching apps). Ghost OS observes every action through a CGEvent tap enriched with accessibility tree context. Claude synthesizes the raw observation into a parameterized, replayable recipe.

No screenshots needed. No vision model. Just the accessibility tree and your keyboard/mouse.

User:    "Watch me send an email."
Agent:   ghost_learn_start task_description:"send email in Gmail"
         ...user performs the task...
Agent:   ghost_learn_stop
         -> 8 actions with full AX context
         -> Synthesizes recipe with 3 parameters: recipient, subject, body
         -> ghost_recipe_save
User:    "Send an email to bob about the Q4 report"
Agent:   ghost_run recipe:"gmail-send-learned" params:{...}

Requires Input Monitoring permission (System Settings > Privacy & Security > Input Monitoring). Run ghost setup to configure.

Previous: v2.1.2

4 new tools. ghost_annotate, ghost_hover, ghost_long_press, ghost_drag. Pinned vision sidecar dependencies, fixed vision model download, Chinese/CJK input support (thanks @junshi5218).

Thank you to the 500+ people who have starred this project. You are why we keep building. If you want to contribute directly, we would love that. See CONTRIBUTING.md.

You:     "Send an email to sarah@company.com about the Q4 report"
Agent:   ghost_run recipe:"gmail-send" params:{recipient, subject, body}
         → Compose opens, fields fill, email sends. Done.

Setup

Recipes in Action

Beyond the Browser
