+#### MUS-SPEC-09-721A: The agent cursor glides to the control and the press lands under it
+
+- Precondition: An in-app browser tab is open and visible, showing a page with two buttons far apart.
+- Action: The agent clicks the near button, then the far button.
+- Expected result: An orange "Muster" cursor appears at the near button, then glides to the far button in 140–520 ms depending on distance, with a press ring on each click. Both clicks register on the page, and the cursor tip ends at the centre of the far button.

+#### MUS-SPEC-09-721B: Typing rings the field; the cursor fades when the agent goes quiet
+
+- Precondition: A watched tab shows a text field.
+- Action: The agent types into the field, then does nothing for two seconds, then clicks again.
+- Expected result: A halo ring circles the field while text goes in. After about 1.6 s idle the cursor fades to transparent over about half a second and stops catching anything. The next action brings it back from where it faded.

+#### MUS-SPEC-09-721C: The model never sees its own cursor, and unwatched pages pay nothing
+
+- Precondition: A watched tab with the cursor showing, and a second tab that is not on screen.
+- Action: The agent takes a screenshot of the watched tab, then clicks in the hidden tab.
+- Expected result: The screenshot has no cursor pixels, and the cursor reappears afterwards. The hidden tab never mounts a cursor element, and its click costs no extra time.

+### Muster computer use (#721)
+
+
+#### MUS-SPEC-14-721E: An agent drives a desktop app with Muster alone, one small answer per step
+
+- Precondition: macOS with Accessibility allowed for the runner. No other desktop app's computer-use plugin is involved. A fixture app with a notes field, an "Add one" button and a "Count 0" label is built from `tests/fixtures/computer-use/fixture-app.swift`.
+- Action: Over stdio, start the shipped `dist/main/computer-mcp.cjs` with the shipped `dist/main/muster-computer` helper. Read the app, click "Add one" by element number, type into Notes, click again, then click element 9999.
+- Expected result: The server names itself muster_computer and lists nine tools. Reading the app shows the button and "Count 0". The click answers within 3 s, after the app settles, with "Changed:" followed only by the label's new line ("Count 1"). It does not repeat the old value or the unchanged button line. The transcript names the step "Clicked “Add one” in MusterFixture", not an element number or the app's path. The typed text shows in the next answer. The second click with the same number gives "Count 2". Element 9999 is refused with an error.
+- Test: `packages/agent-app/tests/computer-mcp.test.ts::MUS-SPEC-14-721E: an agent drives a desktop app with Muster alone and each step answers with only what changed`
+- Environment: Node test runner on macOS with a real AppKit app and the real helper. Skipped when Accessibility is not granted, unless `MUSTER_REQUIRE_COMPUTER_E2E=1`.
+- Known gaps: Windows and Linux backends are not built yet. CI macOS runners have no Accessibility grant, so this runs on a developer Mac.
+- Evidence: UNVERIFIED
+
+
+#### MUS-SPEC-14-721F: A read-only chat can look at apps but not change them
+
+- Precondition: The same fixture app and shipped server as 721E, started with `MUSTER_COMPUTER_READ_ONLY=1` (what a read-only chat gets).
+- Action: List the tools, read the app, then call click on "Add one".
+- Expected result: click and type_text are not in the tool list. The click is refused with a message that the chat is read-only. Reading the app again still shows "Count 0".
+- Test: `packages/agent-app/tests/computer-mcp.test.ts::MUS-SPEC-14-721F: a read-only chat can look at apps but not change them`
+- Environment: As 721E.
+- Known gaps: None.
+- Evidence: UNVERIFIED
+
+
+#### MUS-SPEC-14-721G: Every agent chat gets Muster computer use, on every MCP route
+
+- Precondition: A computer-use launcher file exists, as main writes it on macOS when the helper ships.
+- Action: Build the turn options for a workspace agent chat and a read-only one, pass them through the Claude Code route, check whether a Full access router chat may stay on its route, and build them once more with the launcher missing.
+- Expected result: The Codex options register `mcp_servers.muster_computer` with the chat id and the read-only flag (0, then 1). The notes name muster_computer and no longer send the model to another app's plugin. The Claude Code route receives the server. A Full access router chat is still allowed on its own route. A muster_computer tool call shows as computer use in the transcript. Without the launcher the previous note is kept.
+- Test: `packages/agent-app/tests/computer-mcp.test.ts::MUS-SPEC-14-721G: every agent chat gets Muster computer use on every MCP route, without forcing router chats onto Codex`
+- Environment: Node test runner; no desktop needed.

- Claude chats on your own router no longer reset to a summary when the router has lost the saved thinking for an earlier tool call. Muster resends that part of the history as plain text, so the chat keeps its full history and thread and carries on. Starting fresh is now a last resort.
- Chats on your coding-client sign-ins and profiles no longer show up in your other coding apps. Muster now keeps its own threads in its data folder while sharing your sign-in, profiles, skills and plugins; existing chats continue where they left off.
- Switching a chat to a model on another provider or account no longer loses the conversation. The first message on the new model now carries a summary of the earlier messages, as forks and compaction already do, and the chat says so.
+- Computer use no longer needs another desktop app installed. Muster ships its own computer-use helper for macOS: every agent chat, on Codex, Claude Code or your own router, can read an app's controls, click, type, press keys and scroll. Each step answers with only what changed on screen, so runs are quicker and use less context; read-only chats can look but not act. An orange Muster cursor shows where the agent is working, in the browser and in desktop apps, and fades out when it stops.
