Real hardware. Measured results.
Give an AI agent eyes and hands on a machine.
When software access stops, the machine is still there. Bootscry gives an agent a way to see and act through physical interfaces, including before the operating system starts.
Working now: Comet video and timed keys reached BIOS on one test machine. Exact typing and mouse placement were measured on running Linux. Serial, camera, other KVMs, and more are on the roadmap.
psycho test machineCapture method and limits ↗One recorded run. Retained frames play at six frames per second, about three times capture speed, with an idle pause omitted. The operator exited BIOS; OCR did not stop the timed key loop.What we have measured
The proof you can inspect
One physical Comet test bench. Results have methods and limits attached; they are not claims for every device.
A shared interface
Several ways in. One honest status for each.
Video KVM
Comet supplied frames and timed keys in BIOS. Exact typing and mouse placement were measured on running Linux. Other KVMs await drivers and physical tests.
Serial console
Exact console text from prepared machines, with no OCR in the path.
Camera and audio
See a screen, indicator, or rack from the outside; listen or speak when hardware allows.
Input and management
HID-only input paired with feedback, and server management interfaces.
A common safety layer, audit trail, and MCP tools are planned work. Read the safety design.
Who it is for
A machine can fail before your software can help.
For systems engineers, operators, and agent developers, Bootscry grew out of a NAS recovery that raised a practical question: could an agent use the same physical clues and controls a human operator would use when the operating system is unavailable?
The operator account explains the incident and its attribution limits. The Comet results above are separate, measured experiments.
