Free Computer Use
othmaneblial · Agent
FreeComputerUse is an open-source browser agent. It reads page structure, asks your selected model provider for small batches of actions, and runs them locally with Playwright. It needs a browser already installed on your machine. Direct navigation to a new site asks for your approval, and sensitive actions are shown to you for review, though detection can miss some. Providers are reached with an API key or a supported provider sign-in. It can also run as a local MCP server with tools to start, inspect, follow and stop a browser task.

Why it's useful
You get a web agent that keeps the browser on your machine and waits for your approval before opening new sites.
What you could do with it
- Open the local dashboard and run a built-in task to read a page or extract its links without any model key.
- Give it an open-ended web task, then review the evidence it saved behind the result.
- Connect it to an MCP host so your assistant can start a browser task, follow its progress and stop it.
Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.
Maintenance
Not measuredNo release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.
Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured
What this does not cover
- Everything. Treat it as you would software from anywhere else.
Receipt history: every signed receipt for every version of this listing, and what changed between them.
In its maker's words
Local-first AI browser automation with Playwright and user-approved actions.

Static scanned
- What it establishes
- Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
- What it does not
- How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
- Exactly what was read
- Version 0.2.23, the file with digest sha512-f+3w+CbdweuUuP+0b9Y93UXTxutVZiAkopA81W40dmeb0wBDDfNQxqR1hcaP+r3ial/9XHweT1RsRaukMQef8w==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
- Authentication
- Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.
Adding it
Run it with:
npx -y free-computer-use@0.2.23Pinned to 0.2.23, which is the version the findings above were found in. Drop the version to take whatever is newest, and the report on this page stops describing what you installed.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.
The badge, if this is your listing
It renders the current rung (static scanned) and links back here, where what that does and does not establish is one click away. It updates itself as the evidence deepens.
