xdotool-control
Automate mouse, keyboard, and window operations on the Linux desktop. Primary use: clicking Chrome extension icons, interacting with GUI apps when browser CDP isn't connected.
Quick Start
# Find a window xdotool search --name "Google Chrome" # Click at screen coordinates xdotool mousemove 1800 56 click 1 # Type text into focused window xdotool type "hello world" # Screenshot current state scrot /tmp/snap.png
1. Find + Focus + Click
# Find Chrome window, focus it, click at position WIN=$(xdotool search --name "Google Chrome" | head -1) xdotool windowactivate --sync "$WIN" sleep 0.3 xdotool mousemove X Y click 1
2. Screenshot โ Verify โ Click Loop
Use this when you need to click an element but don't know its exact position: bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/xdotool-control/scripts/snap_verify_click.sh \ "Google Chrome" \ # Window name pattern "extension_icon" \ # What to look for (label for your snap files) 1830 56 # Coordinates to click Or use the full loop script for unknown positions: bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/xdotool-control/scripts/find_and_click.sh \ "Google Chrome" \ /tmp/target_icon.png \ # Template image to match (ImageMagick compare) 10 # Max attempts
3. Click Chrome Extension Icon
bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/xdotool-control/scripts/click_extension.sh "OpenClaw" # or bash ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/xdotool-control/scripts/click_extension.sh "Dawn" This focuses Chrome and clicks the extensions puzzle-piece area, then scans for the named extension.
4. Tab Switching
# Switch to next tab WIN=$(xdotool search --name "Google Chrome" | head -1) xdotool windowactivate --sync "$WIN" xdotool key ctrl+Tab # Switch to specific tab (1-indexed) xdotool key ctrl+2 # Tab 2 xdotool key ctrl+3 # Tab 3 # Open new tab xdotool key ctrl+t # Type a URL into address bar xdotool key ctrl+l sleep 0.2 xdotool type "https://example.com" xdotool key Return
5. Type Into Window
WIN=$(xdotool search --name "Terminal" | head -1) xdotool windowactivate --sync "$WIN" sleep 0.2 xdotool type --clearmodifiers "command to type here" xdotool key Return
6. Approve tmux Prompt (for Clawdy daemon)
SESSION=$(tmux ls | grep claude-session | head -1 | cut -d: -f1) tmux send-keys -t "$SESSION" "Yes" Enter
Window Management
# List all windows with names xdotool search --name "" | while read wid; do name=$(xdotool getwindowname "$wid" 2>/dev/null) [ -n "$name" ] && echo "$wid $name" done | head -20 # Get window geometry (position + size) xdotool getwindowgeometry $WIN_ID # Move window to front xdotool windowraise $WIN_ID # Resize window xdotool windowsize $WIN_ID 1280 800 # Move window xdotool windowmove $WIN_ID 0 0
Screenshot Utilities
# Full desktop screenshot scrot /tmp/desktop.png # Specific window scrot -u /tmp/active_window.png # Currently active window # Crop a region (x,y,width,height) scrot -a 1400,0,480,60 /tmp/toolbar.png # With delay scrot -d 2 /tmp/delayed.png Read screenshots with Claude's Read tool โ it renders images inline.
Chrome-Specific Patterns
# Chrome toolbar extension icons are typically at: # y โ 56 (vertical center of toolbar) # x varies by number of pinned extensions, roughly: # Last icon: screen_width - 30 # Second-to-last: screen_width - 60 # Puzzle piece: screen_width - 90 (unpinned extensions menu)
Clicking a Pinned Extension Icon
# Always auto-detect screen width โ never hardcode read SCREEN_W SCREEN_H <<< $(xdotool getdisplaygeometry) TOOLBAR_Y=56 # Take a toolbar snapshot first to verify positions scrot -a "$((SCREEN_W-300)),0,300,70" /tmp/toolbar_snap.png # Read /tmp/toolbar_snap.png to see icon positions visually # Then click xdotool mousemove $((SCREEN_W - 60)) $TOOLBAR_Y click 1
Dependencies
# Required sudo apt-get install xdotool scrot # Optional โ enables template matching in find_and_click.sh sudo apt-get install imagemagick # Check all deps at once: for dep in xdotool scrot convert; do command -v "$dep" &>/dev/null && echo "โ $dep" || echo "โ $dep (missing)" done
Tips & Gotchas
Always windowactivate --sync before clicking โ without --sync, the click may fire before focus lands Add sleep 0.3 after focus change before interacting with Chrome Coordinates are screen-absolute, not window-relative โ factor in window position from getwindowgeometry xdotool type vs xdotool key: use type for text strings, key for special keys (ctrl+t, Return, Escape) --clearmodifiers on type prevents Shift/Ctrl state from leaking into typed text scrot -u captures only the currently active window โ make sure to activate the right window first ImageMagick compare can do pixel-level template matching for verify loops (see find_and_click.sh)
