base on The Cradle framework is a first attempt at General Computer Control (GCC). Cradle supports agents to ace any computer task by enabling strong reasoning abilities, self-improvment, and skill curation, in a standardized general environment with minimal requirements. # Cradle: Empowering Foundation Agents Towards General Computer Control <div align="center"> [[Website]](https://baai-agents.github.io/Cradle/) [[arXiv]](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.03186) [[PDF]](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2403.03186) []() []()  </div> The Cradle framework empowers nascent foundation models to perform complex computer tasks via the same unified interface humans use, i.e., screenshots as input and keyboard & mouse operations as output. ## 📢 Updates - 2024-06-27: A major update! Cradle is extened to four games: [RDR2](https://www.rockstargames.com/reddeadredemption2), [Stardew Valley](https://www.stardewvalley.net/), [Cities: Skylines](https://www.paradoxinteractive.com/games/cities-skylines/about), and [Dealer's Life 2](https://abyteentertainment.com/dealers-life-2/) and various software, including but not limited to Chrome, Outlook, Capcut, Meitu and Feishu.

Please create a `.env` file in the root of the repository to store the keys (one of them is enough). Sample `.env` file containing private information: ``` OA_OPENAI_KEY = "abc123abc123abc123abc123abc123ab" RF_CLAUDE_AK = "abc123abc123abc123abc123abc123ab" # Access Key for Claude RF_CLAUDE_SK = "123abc123abc123abc123abc123abc12" # Secret Access Key for Claude AZ_OPENAI_KEY = "123abc123abc123abc123abc123abc12" AZ_BASE_URL = "https://abc123.openai.azure.com/" RF_CLAUDE_AK = "abc123abc123abc123abc123abc123ab" RF_CLAUDE_SK = "123abc123abc123abc123abc123abc12" IDE_NAME = "Code" ``` OA_OPENAI_KEY is the OpenAI API key. You can get it from the [OpenAI](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys). AZ_OPENAI_KEY is the Azure OpenAI API key. You can get it from the [Azure Portal](https://portal.azure.com/#view/HubsExtension/BrowseResource/resourceType/Microsoft.CognitiveServices%2Faccounts). OA_CLAUDE_KEY is the Anthropic Claude API key. You can get it from the [Anthropic](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/keys). RF_CLAUDE_AK and RF_CLAUDE_SK are AWS Restful API key and secret key for Claude API. IDE_NAME refers to the IDE environment in which the repository's code runs, such as `PyCharm` or `Code` (VSCode). It is primarily used to enable automatic switching between the IDE and the target environment. ## Setup ### Python Environment Please setup your python environment and install the required dependencies as: ```bash # Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/BAAI-Agents/Cradle.git cd Cradle # Create a new conda environment conda create --name cradle-dev python=3.10 conda activate cradle-dev pip install -r requirements.txt ``` ### Install the OCR Tools ``` 1. Option 1 # Download best-matching version of specific model for your spaCy installation python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg or # pip install .tar.gz archive or .whl from path or URL pip install https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_lg-3.7.1/en_core_web_lg-3.7.1.tar.gz 2. Option 2 # Copy this url https://github.com/explosion/spacy-models/releases/download/en_core_web_lg-3.7.1/en_core_web_lg-3.7.1.tar.gz # Paste it in the browser and download the file to res/spacy/data cd res/spacy/data pip install en_core_web_lg-3.7.1.tar.gz ``` # 🚀 Get Started Due to the vast differences between each game and software, we have provided the specific settings for each of them below. 1. [Red Dead Redemption 2](docs/envs/rdr2.md) 2. [Stardew Valley](docs/envs/stardew.md) 3. [Cities: Skylines](docs/envs/skylines.md) 4. [Dealer's Life 2](docs/envs/dealers.md) 5.

We suggest considering each game specifically. For example, RDR2, an independent AAA game, requires real-time combat, so we need to pause the game to wait for GPT-4o's response and then unpause the game to execute the actions. Stardew has the same issue. Other games like Dealer's Life 2 and Cities: Skylines do not have real-time requirements, so they do not need to pause. If the new game is similar to the latter, we recommend copying Cities: Skylines' implementation and following its implementation path to create the corresponding modules. Although each game may differ significantly, our Cradle framework can still achieve a unified adaptation for a game. Assuming the new game's name is **newgame**, the specific migration pipeline can be found [Migrate to New Game Guide](docs/envs/new_game.md). # Citation If you find our work useful, please consider citing us! ``` @article{tan2024cradle, title={Cradle: Empowering Foundation Agents towards General Computer Control}, author={Weihao Tan and Wentao Zhang and Xinrun Xu and Haochong Xia and Ziluo Ding and Boyu Li and Bohan Zhou and Junpeng Yue and Jiechuan Jiang and Yewen Li and Ruyi An and Molei Qin and Chuqiao Zong and Longtao Zheng and Yujie Wu and Xiaoqiang Chai and Yifei Bi and Tianbao Xie and Pengjie Gu and Xiyun Li and Ceyao Zhang and Long Tian and Chaojie Wang and Xinrun Wang and Börje F.
