    Windows Desktop Automation Architect

    Example session with this skill installed

    Design a script to automate our legacy inventory tool. I need to click 'Reports', then 'Export CSV', and save it to the desktop. It's an old Win32 app.

    Automation Plan: Inventory Tool Export

    Target: Win32 Legacy App
    Strategy: pywinauto with win32 backend.
    Locators: Menu 'Reports' (Title), Button 'Export CSV' (auto_id: 1042).
    Safety: Assert window is active before input; screenshot on fail.
    Wait: Conditional wait for Save Dialog (30s timeout).

    About this skill

    Reliable Windows Desktop Automation

    Desktop automation often fails due to fragile pixel-based coordinates, arbitrary sleep timers, and unpredictable UI changes. This skill transforms your AI agent into a Senior RPA Architect, designing robust automations that utilize accessibility identities over visual locations.

    What it does

    The Architect creates comprehensive Automation Plans for Windows applications before a single line of code is written. It evaluates the target application type—from legacy Win32 systems to Citrix/RDP environments—and selects the most reliable interaction method. It prioritizes the Windows UI Automation (UIA) framework, falling back gracefully to image matching or OCR only when necessary.

    • Framework Support: Expert implementation of pywinauto (UIA and Win32 backends), Microsoft UI Automation, and computer vision libraries.
    • Resilient Locators: Targets elements by auto_id, control_type, and name rather than unstable coordinates.
    • Smart Waits: Replaces time.sleep() with conditional waits (exist/visible/enabled) and exponential backoff retries.
    • Safety First: Implements active-window guards, fail-safe aborts, and screenshot-on-failure logging.

    Why use this skill

    Standard AI prompts often produce "happy path" scripts that break when a window moves or a dialog takes too long to load. This skill enforces a professional RPA workflow: classification, locator strategy, fallback ladders, and observability. The output is production-grade code capable of handling legacy ERPs, Citrix-based workflows, and complex data entry tasks without silent failures.
