**`wayland-computer-use-mcp`** is a high-performance Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing an interactive GUI testing, automation, and desktop integration suite for Wayland environments (KDE Plasma 6 / KWin, GNOME Mutter, Hyprland, Sway, and generic Wayland).

Unlike conventional "computer use" agents that rely on high-latency video streaming and expensive pixel-based coordinate guessing, `wayland-computer-use-mcp` implements a **Tree-First Hybrid Semantic Execution Model**:
- **Atomic Programmatic Execution**: Inspects semantic widget trees via AT-SPI2 D-Bus interfaces and executes actions (`DoAction`, `EditableText`, `Text`) directly without coordinate ambiguity.
- **Observable Cursor Tracing**: Visibly translates the pointer over target elements prior to interaction, ensuring live tracking and transparency for human observers.
- **Resilient Physical Fallback**: Custom canvas widgets, dropdown popovers, and complex surfaces fall back smoothly to clamped physical pointer clicks, drags, discrete wheel scrolls, and keystrokes.

## ⚡ Token Efficiency: 90–95% Savings Over Vision-Only Approaches

Traditional screenshot-driven computer use models stream full monitor or window screenshots on every single action, consuming **1,500 to 3,500+ vision tokens per step**. A 10-step interaction sequence consumes 25,000–35,000+ tokens, introduces substantial latency, and suffers from visual coordinate hallucinations.

`wayland-computer-use-mcp` reduces token expenditure by over 90%:
