RequirementDetails

PermissionsOpenClaw.app needs Screen Recording + Accessibility permissions
PeekabooCLI must be installed and configured

Privacy & Security

What this skill accesses:

  • Location data for people, devices, and items in your Find My app
  • Screenshots of the Find My window (stored locally in /tmp/)
What this skill does NOT do:
  • No network requests to third-party services
  • No credential storage or Apple ID access
  • No data exfiltration — all operations are local UI automation
Data scope: The skill can see/interact with anything visible in your Find My app, including:
  • Shared locations of family/friends
  • Device locations (yours and Family Sharing members)
  • AirTag/item locations
User awareness: This skill uses mouse clicks and UI automation. You will see the actions happening on screen.

Known Limitations

  • --app "Find My" hangs in Peekaboo - use --window-id instead
  • Sidebar items not accessible - Find My doesn't expose item names via accessibility APIs
  • Position-based selection - Select items by position (1st, 2nd, 3rd...) not by name
  • macOS only - Requires Peekaboo + OpenClaw.app bridge
  • Exclusive control - User cannot interact with the Mac while skill is running (mouse/clicks conflict)

Quick Reference

ScriptPurpose
fm-window.shGet window ID and bounds (JSON)
fm-screenshot.sh [path]Capture Find My window
fm-tab.sh Switch tab: people, devices, items
fm-list.sh [tab]Screenshot + show sidebar positions
fm-select-item.sh [tab]Select item by position (1, 2, 3...)
fm-locate.sh [tab]Select item and screenshot location
fm-info.sh [path]Open info panel, screenshot
fm-play-sound.sh Attempt to play sound on item
fm-click.sh Click at relative window coords

Workflow Examples

List available items

bash
./scripts/fm-list.sh items
# Screenshots the Items tab - view image to see your AirTags/items

Find your keys (if keys are 2nd item in list)

bash
./scripts/fm-locate.sh 2 items
# Shows location on map, outputs screenshot path

Play sound on keys

bash
./scripts/fm-play-sound.sh 2
# Selects 2nd item, attempts to click Play Sound
# May require manual click if button not found

Check on a family member

bash
./scripts/fm-list.sh people
# View screenshot to see who's listed

./scripts/fm-locate.sh 1 people
# Shows first person's location

Manual Coordinate Clicks

When automation fails, calculate coordinates manually:

bash
# Get window position
./scripts/fm-window.sh
# Output: {"x": 824, "y": 62, "width": 1024, "height": 768, "window_id": 2248}

# Click at relative position within window
./scripts/fm-click.sh 150 174   # 2nd sidebar item
./scripts/fm-click.sh 243 68    # Items tab

Info Panel Actions

After selecting an item, click the ⓘ button on the map popup to open the info panel:

ActionDescription
Play SoundMake AirTag chirp (items only)
DirectionsOpen Maps with directions
ShareShare location with others
Lost ModeEnable contact info sharing
NotificationsConfigure alerts

Troubleshooting

"Find My window not found"

  • Ensure Find My.app is open
  • Check OpenClaw.app is running (provides Peekaboo bridge)
Clicks not registering
  • Window may have moved - re-run fm-window.sh for fresh coordinates
  • Ensure Find My is frontmost before clicking
Can't find Play Sound button
  • Open info panel manually (click ⓘ on map popup)
  • Then re-run play-sound script

Future Improvements

When Peekaboo fixes --app "Find My":

  • Direct element targeting without coordinate calculation
  • Reliable accessibility tree for sidebar items
  • Simpler automation flows
