The following is the complete skill definition that Hermes loads when this skill is triggered. This is what the agent sees as instructions when the skill is active.
Find My (Apple)
Track Apple devices and AirTags via the FindMy.app on macOS. Since Apple doesn't provide a CLI for FindMy, this skill uses AppleScript to open the app and screen capture to read device locations.
Prerequisites
- macOS with Find My app and iCloud signed in
- Devices/AirTags already registered in Find My
- Screen Recording permission for terminal (System Settings → Privacy → Screen Recording)
- Optional but recommended: Install
peekaboofor better UI automation:brew install steipete/tap/peekaboo
When to Use
- User asks "where is my [device/cat/keys/bag]?"
- Tracking AirTag locations
- Checking device locations (iPhone, iPad, Mac, AirPods)
- Monitoring pet or item movement over time (AirTag patrol routes)
Method 1: AppleScript + Screenshot (Basic)
Open FindMy and Navigate
# Open Find My app
osascript -e 'tell application "FindMy" to activate'
# Wait for it to load
sleep 3
# Take a screenshot of the Find My window
screencapture -w -o /tmp/findmy.png
Then use vision_analyze to read the screenshot:
vision_analyze(image_url="/tmp/findmy.png", question="What devices/items are shown and what are their locations?")
Switch Between Tabs
# Switch to Devices tab
osascript -e '
tell application "System Events"
tell process "FindMy"
click button "Devices" of toolbar 1 of window 1
end tell
end tell'
# Switch to Items tab (AirTags)
osascript -e '
tell application "System Events"
tell process "FindMy"
click button "Items" of toolbar 1 of window 1
end tell
end tell'
Method 2: Peekaboo UI Automation (Recommended)
If peekaboo is installed, use it for more reliable UI interaction:
# Open Find My
osascript -e 'tell application "FindMy" to activate'
sleep 3
# Capture and annotate the UI
peekaboo see --app "FindMy" --annotate --path /tmp/findmy-ui.png
# Click on a specific device/item by element ID
peekaboo click --on B3 --app "FindMy"
# Capture the detail view
peekaboo image --app "FindMy" --path /tmp/findmy-detail.png
Then analyze with vision:
vision_analyze(image_url="/tmp/findmy-detail.png", question="What is the location shown for this device/item? Include address and coordinates if visible.")
Workflow: Track AirTag Location Over Time
For monitoring an AirTag (e.g., tracking a cat's patrol route):
# 1. Open FindMy to Items tab
osascript -e 'tell application "FindMy" to activate'
sleep 3
# 2. Click on the AirTag item (stay on page — AirTag only updates when page is open)
# 3. Periodically capture location
while true; do
screencapture -w -o /tmp/findmy-$(date +%H%M%S).png
sleep 300 # Every 5 minutes
done
Analyze each screenshot with vision to extract coordinates, then compile a route.
Limitations
- FindMy has no CLI or API — must use UI automation
- AirTags only update location while the FindMy page is actively displayed
- Location accuracy depends on nearby Apple devices in the FindMy network
- Screen Recording permission required for screenshots
- AppleScript UI automation may break across macOS versions
Rules
- Keep FindMy app in the foreground when tracking AirTags (updates stop when minimized)
- Use
vision_analyzeto read screenshot content — don't try to parse pixels - For ongoing tracking, use a cronjob to periodically capture and log locations
- Respect privacy — only track devices/items the user owns
