How Are Developers Using Desktop and Browser AI Agents Every Day?

Summary

A Hacker News post asks developers and power users whether they use screen-aware AI agents on the desktop or in a browser as part of their daily workflow. The author points to tools including Claude Code, HeyClicky, GPT-6 Astra, and Meta Muse as examples of products that can see a user’s screen and act on the user’s behalf. The discussion seeks practical details about which tools people use, how well they work, and their advantages and disadvantages. It also asks those who do not use them whether privacy concerns, latency, or a lack of practical utility is the main obstacle. The stated goal is to distinguish the reality of agentic desktop workflows from the current market hype around agentic AI and AGI.
