Welcome to Agent S, an open-source framework designed to enable autonomous interaction with computers through Agent-Computer Interface. Our mission is to build intelligent GUI agents that can learn from past experiences and perform complex tasks autonomously on your computer.
Whether you're interested in AI, automation, or contributing to cutting-edge agent-based systems, we're excited to have you here!
Results of Agent S2's Successful Rate (%) on the OSWorld full test set using Screenshot input only.
| Benchmark | Agent S2 | Previous SOTA | Δ improve |
|---|---|---|---|
| OSWorld (15 step) | 27.0% | 22.7% (ByteDance UI-TARS) | +4.3% |
| OSWorld (50 step) | 34.5% | 32.6% (OpenAI CUA) | +1.9% |
| AndroidWorld | 50.0% | 46.8% (ByteDance UI-TARS) | +3.2% |
❗Warning❗: If you are on a Linux machine, creating a
condaenvironment will interfere withpyatspi. As of now, there's no clean solution for this issue. Proceed through the installation without usingcondaor any virtual environment.
⚠️ Disclaimer⚠️ : To leverage the full potential of Agent S2, we utilize UI-TARS as a grounding model (7B-DPO or 72B-DPO for better performance). They can be hosted locally, or on Hugging Face Inference Endpoints. Our code supports Hugging Face Inference Endpoints. Check out Hugging Face Inference Endpoints for more information on how to set up and query this endpoint. However, running Agent S2 does not require this model, and you can use alternative API based models for visual grounding, such as Claude.
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/simular-ai/Agent-S.git
Install the gui-agents package:
pip install gui-agents
Set your LLM API Keys and other environment variables. You can do this by adding the following line to your .bashrc (Linux), or .zshrc (MacOS) file.
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<YOUR_API_KEY>
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=<YOUR_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY>
export HF_TOKEN=<YOUR_HF_TOKEN>
Alternatively, you can set the environment variable in your Python script:
import os
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
We also support Azure OpenAI, Anthropic, and vLLM inference. For more information refer to models.md.
Agent S works best with web-knowledge retrieval. To enable this feature, you need to setup Perplexica:
-
Ensure Docker Desktop is installed and running on your system.
-
Navigate to the directory containing the project files.
cd Perplexica git submodule update --init -
Rename the
sample.config.tomlfile toconfig.toml. For Docker setups, you need only fill in the following fields:-
OPENAI: Your OpenAI API key. You only need to fill this if you wish to use OpenAI's models. -
OLLAMA: Your Ollama API URL. You should enter it ashttp://host.docker.internal:PORT_NUMBER. If you installed Ollama on port 11434, usehttp://host.docker.internal:11434. For other ports, adjust accordingly. You need to fill this if you wish to use Ollama's models instead of OpenAI's. -
GROQ: Your Groq API key. You only need to fill this if you wish to use Groq's hosted models. -
ANTHROPIC: Your Anthropic API key. You only need to fill this if you wish to use Anthropic models.Note: You can change these after starting Perplexica from the settings dialog.
-
SIMILARITY_MEASURE: The similarity measure to use (This is filled by default; you can leave it as is if you are unsure about it.)
-
-
Ensure you are in the directory containing the
docker-compose.yamlfile and execute:docker compose up -d
-
Our implementation of Agent S incorporates the Perplexica API to integrate a search engine capability, which allows for a more convenient and responsive user experience. If you want to tailor the API to your settings and specific requirements, you may modify the URL and the message of request parameters in
agent_s/query_perplexica.py. For a comprehensive guide on configuring the Perplexica API, please refer to Perplexica Search API Documentation
For a more detailed setup and usage guide, please refer to the Perplexica Repository.
❗Warning❗: The agent will directly run python code to control your computer. Please use with care.
Run agent_s on your computer using:
agent_s2 --model gpt-4o
This will show a user query prompt where you can enter your query and interact with Agent S2. You can use any model from the list of supported models in models.md.

screenshot_bytes = buffered.getvalue()

}

info, action = agent.predict(instruction=instruction, observation=obs)
exec(action[0])
Refer to gui_agents/s2/cli_app.py for more details on how the inference loop works.
To deploy Agent S2 in OSWorld, follow the OSWorld Deployment instructions.
We extend our sincere thanks to Tianbao Xie for developing OSWorld and discussing computer use challenges. We also appreciate the engaging discussions with Yujia Qin and Shihao Liang regarding UI-TARS.
