Hi everyone!
Microsoft dropped UFO², upgrading their open-source agent project for Windows and calling it a "Desktop AgentOS".
It lets AI agents automate tricky workflows across multiple Windows apps. The cool part is the Hybrid Control: using direct Windows APIs when it can (faster, more reliable) and switching to simulating clicks only when needed, unlike pure UI bots.
It's built with a multi-agent design in mind and uses RAG to access knowledge. They're also adding a Picture-in-Picture mode soon, which enables asynchronous execution. I believe this ability for agents to work separately in the background is essential for them to be truly productive.
The whole thing is open source under the MIT License. Provides a solid base for building smarter Windows automations.
Okay, this is seriously cool. Love the minimalist vibe and the whole concept of decluttering my workspace without losing access to important stuff. Definitely giving this a spin!
Great one with nice features... Congratulations for launching and best wishes.
