Automated safety checks
This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.
No undeclared network calls: failed
Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: www.google.com.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

About this skill
What it does
The gemini-computer-use skill enables AI agents to interact with and control computer systems, including executing commands, managing files, and accessing system resources. It supports a wide range of tasks such as running scripts, opening applications, and retrieving information from the operating system.
When to use it
- Automating repetitive file management or system maintenance tasks.
- Running diagnostic tools or scripts on remote machines.
- Integrating AI agents with development environments for code execution and testing.
- Performing system-level troubleshooting under the guidance of an AI agent.
Key capabilities
- Execute terminal commands across multiple operating systems.
- Manage files, including creation, deletion, and modification.
- Access system information such as hardware specs or running processes.
- Interact with applications through automation scripts.
Example prompts
- "Run a Python script located at
/home/user/scripts/test.py." - "List all the files in the current directory and their sizes."
- "Check the status of the Apache web server on this machine."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure proper permissions are granted for system-level operations to avoid errors or security risks.
- Be cautious with commands that modify or delete files, as they can lead to data loss if misused.
