SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you quickly find where your Apple devices or AirTags are located when you only have access to Apple’s Find My graphical interface and no usable command-line tool.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • AppleScript UI control: Opens the Find My app and navigates between Devices and Items views to reach the information you need.
  • Screen capture + vision reading: Uses macOS screenshots of the Find My UI and analyzes them to extract device/item names and location details.
  • Optional UI automation (peekaboo): Improves reliability when interacting with the Find My interface by clicking specific elements and capturing more precise views.
  • Use case: Ask where your “cat’s AirTag” is, then run periodic captures to monitor location changes over time and compile an observed route.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to track the location of your AirTag on macOS by opening Find My, capturing the relevant screen, and extracting the visible location details.
