Even better than computer use: VM use. My agent has been coding for Windows in a VM that I've not opened ONCE. It even downloaded the ISO on its own. This is fantastic 🥲

Fine until the VM image drifts and nobody remembers how it was built. Have the agent write the provisioning script, not just run it, so you can rebuild the box when it breaks.

For Windows I'd do a skill instead of a script. The LLM takes screenshots and clicks through the installer, it can do lots of things that are hard to script and on top will problem solve instead of dying stupidly :)

That's the dream setup — agent owns the whole Windows box and you never touch the console. Did it also handle the drivers/guest tools, or did you seed those once?

I have no idea and I don't want to know 🤣 But I'm testing TPM-related code, so it's a lot more than running qemu and calling it a day On another VM it did the whole Office setup and mouse passthrough and DPR auto config
