I gave my AI agent my mouse. Its first click was on itself.

Description and use

<p>I build <a href="https://github.com/Natuworkguy/Flash" rel="noopener noreferrer">Flash</a>, an open source AI agent that runs in your terminal and in a web UI. This week I shipped two features that scared me a little:</p> <ol> <li> <strong>Computer Use (Beta).</strong> Flash takes a screenshot, decides where to click, and works the mouse and keyboard itself.</li> <li> <strong>UltraAuto.</strong> A third permission mode where Flash and its background agents <strong>never stop to ask you anything</strong>. Not for commands, not for email, not for iMessages, not for taking over your mouse.</li
