Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| bytebot_create_task | Create a new task for ByteBot to execute. Returns task ID and initial status. Use this to start autonomous task execution. |
| bytebot_list_tasks | List all tasks with optional filters. Use this to see what tasks exist and their current status. |
| bytebot_get_task | Get detailed information about a specific task by ID, including full message history and current status. |
| bytebot_get_in_progress_task | Get the currently running task, if any. Returns null if no task is currently in progress. |
| bytebot_update_task | Update a task's status or priority. Use this to cancel tasks, mark them for review, or change priority. |
| bytebot_delete_task | Delete a task by ID. This permanently removes the task and its history. Cannot be undone. |
| bytebot_move_mouse | Move the mouse cursor to specific screen coordinates. Use this to position the cursor before clicking or dragging. |
| bytebot_click | Click at specific screen coordinates. Supports left, right, and middle mouse buttons, as well as double-clicks. |
| bytebot_drag | Drag the mouse from one position to another. Useful for moving windows, selecting text, or drag-and-drop operations. |
| bytebot_scroll | Scroll the screen in a specific direction. Use this to navigate through content. |
| bytebot_type_text | Type text string as if typing on a keyboard. Use this for entering text in forms, search boxes, etc. |
| bytebot_paste_text | Paste text directly (without typing). Faster than type_text and works with special characters/emojis. |
| bytebot_press_keys | Press keyboard keys including modifiers (Ctrl, Shift, Alt, etc.). Use this for keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, Alt+Tab. |
| bytebot_screenshot | Capture a screenshot of the entire screen. Returns base64-encoded PNG image data. |
| bytebot_cursor_position | Get the current mouse cursor position. Returns {x, y} coordinates. |
| bytebot_read_file | Read a file from the filesystem. Returns base64-encoded file content. |
| bytebot_write_file | Write content to a file on the filesystem. Content must be base64-encoded. |
| bytebot_switch_application | Switch to a specific application window. Use this to bring an app to the foreground. |
| bytebot_wait | Wait for a specified duration. Use this to add delays between actions or wait for UI updates. |
| bytebot_create_and_monitor_task | Create a task and monitor its progress until completion or intervention needed. Automatically polls task status and returns when task reaches a terminal state (COMPLETED, NEEDS_HELP, NEEDS_REVIEW, FAILED, CANCELLED) or timeout is reached. This is the recommended way to execute tasks when you want to wait for results. |
| bytebot_intervene_in_task | Provide intervention for a task in NEEDS_HELP state. Send guidance to the task and optionally resume, cancel, or retry it. Use this when a task is stuck and needs human input to proceed. |
| bytebot_execute_workflow | Execute a multi-step workflow with automatic task creation, monitoring, and error recovery. Each step is executed as a separate task, with automatic intervention handling. Use this for complex multi-step automation scenarios. |
| bytebot_monitor_task | Monitor an existing task until it reaches a terminal state or timeout. Use this when you have already created a task and want to wait for its completion. |
