What is it?

OpenAdapt is a tool for automating repetitive data entry in web, Windows, macOS, Linux and remote-desktop applications. A person or a computer-use agent performs a task once while OpenAdapt records it, then compiles the run into a program. That program repeats the steps with new inputs without calling a model and without sending screenshots anywhere.

Before each save, the program checks that the correct record is on screen. After saving, it reads the record back from the system of record instead of trusting the app's success message. If something does not match, the run stops before saving and reports the outcome to the calling agent, so a save is never retried blindly. Changed screens can be repaired by proposing a fix that a person approves.

OpenAdapt exposes compiled workflows as MCP tools, so an agent such as Claude can call them, and it also provides a CLI and Agent Skills. Its benchmark on a test copy of OpenEMR is published with the repository.

Key features

  • 01Compiles one recorded or agent-performed task into a program that runs with no model calls.
  • 02Confirms the right record before each save and reads the saved record back from the system of record.
  • 03Stops and reports instead of retrying an uncertain save.
  • 04Uses DOM, UI Automation, Accessibility or AT-SPI where available, and pixel matching for remote desktops.
  • 05Exposes workflows as MCP tools and Agent Skills for connecting AI agents.
  • 06Requires a person to approve changes when a workflow needs repair.

Use cases

  • Entering the same patient or claim records into an EHR or insurance system many times.
  • Giving an AI agent a verified write tool instead of letting it drive the screen for each save.
  • Automating legacy desktop or Citrix/RDP applications that lack an API.

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install the openadapt package from PyPI

    python -m pip install --upgrade openadapt
  2. 2

    Run the synthetic quickstart demo, including the break-it test

    openadapt quickstart --break-it

Things to know

  • Each application on each surface needs its own qualification before its programs can run safely.
  • The replay command performs every recorded action, including saves, without asking or checking the record, so use only test or staging copies.
  • Exploring tasks and repairing changed programs use your own model key and incur model costs.
