bigarrow Points AI Agents At Human Actions
bigarrow is an MIT-licensed macOS CLI and agent skill that draws click-through arrows, boxes, and labels over UI elements for human-in-the-loop tasks. It targets buttons by accessibility label, window, coordinate, or Peekaboo snapshot without clicking, typing, capturing, or stealing focus. [GitHub](https://github.com/franzenzenhofer/big-arrow-on-the-screen)
bigarrow addresses a deceptively important gap in agent workflows: communicating exactly where a human must intervene without handing the agent dangerous control.
- –Useful for permission prompts, OAuth consent, 2FA, CAPTCHAs, passkeys, payments, and signatures
- –Its single Swift binary, automatic cleanup, JSON output, and exit codes make it practical to embed in agent workflows
- –Integration with Claude Code, Codex, and Peekaboo gives agents structured ways to locate and highlight targets
- –The strict “point, never click” boundary is a security feature, not a missing capability
- –macOS-only support and Chrome accessibility limitations keep it complementary to broader automation tools such as Peekaboo
