The Linux environment gives your agent a full Linux desktop session in an isolated sandbox.

When to use Linux

Choose Linux when the task goes beyond browser-only automation:
  • Using native desktop applications
  • Running terminal-driven workflows
  • Working with local files through desktop tools
  • Handling mixed browser and desktop interactions

Interaction model

Linux environments rely on Computer Use (CUA) models that reason over screenshots and generate keyboard and mouse actions to control the desktop.
