Publish-only note (ClawHub)

This Publish package includes scripts as .ps1.txt because Publish only accepts text files. After download, rename each *.ps1.txt to *.ps1 and place them in a scripts/ folder to use the skill.

Control any desktop application on this Windows machine. Launch programs, manage windows, simulate input, control VSCode, and monitor processes — all via PowerShell scripts.

CRITICAL: Script Location

All scripts are located relative to this skill folder:

SKILL_DIR = ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/desktop-control/scripts

When running scripts, always use the full path:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "$HOME/.openclaw/workspace/skills/desktop-control/scripts/
