Why this rating

Deterministic checks triggered by the tool capabilities and evidence.

  • Locality: Local

    Runs Python scripts on the Windows machine to control the desktop (mouse/keyboard/window management).

  • Data access: Sensitive

    Can capture the screen and extract text/UI elements from windows and dialogs (potentially revealing private content).

  • Action surface: Execute

    Can click/type/press keys and close windows, enabling high-impact automation across any app.

Best practices

Follow these steps to reduce risk when using this skill.

  • Run on a dedicated Windows user/VM and close or lock sensitive apps before allowing automation to capture the screen.
  • Prefer read-first workflows (`read_window.py` / `screenshot.py`) and confirm coordinates/targets before issuing clicks or keypresses.
  • Treat any saved screenshots/output files as sensitive artifacts and delete or secure them after use.

Max-risk rule

If any capability reaches a higher level, the entire indicator level bumps up to keep ratings deterministic and easy to scan.
