Introduction

OpenCUA models (OpenCUA-7B, OpenCUA-32B, and OpenCUA-72B) are end-to-end computer-use foundation models that can produce executable actions in the computer environments with great planning and grounding capabilities. They are based on the Qwen2.5-VL model family.

With the help of OpenCUA framework, our end-to-end agent models demonstrate strong performance across CUA benchmarks. In particular, OpenCUA-72B achieves an average success rate of 45.0% on OSWorld-Verified, establishing a new state-of-the-art (SOTA) among open-source models. OpenCUA-72B also has strong grounding ability, achieving 37.3% (SOTA) on UI-Vision and 60.8% on ScreenSpot-Pro.

🚀 Quick Start

⚠️ Important for Qwen-based Models (OpenCUA-7B, OpenCUA-32B, OpenCUA-72B):

To align with our training infrastructure, we have modified the model in two places:

1. Multimodal Rotary Position Embedding (M-RoPE) has been replaced with 1D RoPE.
2. Using the same Tokenizer and ChatTemplate as Kimi-VL.
vLLM supported via --trust-remote-code flag. Tokenizer and Chat Template should be aligned if training the models.

Installation & Download

First, install the required dependencies:

conda create -n opencua python=3.12
conda activate opencua
pip install openai>=1.0.0

Download the model weight from huggingface (optional, vLLM can download automatically):

from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
snapshot_download(
    repo_id="xlangai/OpenCUA-7B",
    local_dir="OpenCUA-7B",
    local_dir_use_symlinks=False
)

🎯 GUI Grounding

First, start the vLLM server:

vllm serve xlangai/OpenCUA-7B \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --served-model-name opencua-7b \
  --host 0.0.0.0 \
  --port 8000

Then run the following code to test GUI grounding:

import base64
from openai import OpenAI

# vLLM server configuration
VLLM_BASE_URL = "http://localhost:8000/v1"
MODEL_NAME = "opencua-7b"  # Should match --served-model-name in vllm serve

def encode_image(image_path: str) -> str:
    """Encode image to base64 string."""
    with open(image_path, "rb") as f:
        return base64.b64encode(f.read()).decode()

def run_grounding(image_path: str, instruction: str) -> str:
    """Run GUI grounding inference via vLLM."""
    client = OpenAI(base_url=VLLM_BASE_URL, api_key="EMPTY")

    system_prompt = (
        "You are a GUI agent. You are given a task and a screenshot of the screen. "
        "You need to perform a series of pyautogui actions to complete the task."
    )

    messages = [
        {"role": "system", "content": system_prompt},
        {
            "role": "user",
            "content": [
                {
                    "type": "image_url",
                    "image_url": {"url": f"data:image/png;base64,{encode_image(image_path)}"}
                },
                {"type": "text", "text": instruction},
            ],
        },
    ]

    response = client.chat.completions.create(
        model=MODEL_NAME,
        messages=messages,
        max_tokens=512,
        temperature=0,
    )

    return response.choices[0].message.content

# Example usage
image_path = "screenshot.png"
instruction = "Click on the submit button"

result = run_grounding(image_path, instruction)
print("Model output:", result)

Expected result: ```python\npyautogui.click(x=1443, y=343)\n```

You can also run the grounding examples in OpenCUA/model/inference/:

cd ./model/inference/

# vLLM (requires running vLLM server first)
python vllm_inference.py

# HuggingFace Transformers
python huggingface_inference.py

🖥️ Computer Use Agent

OpenCUAAgent is developed in the OSWorld environment based on OpenCUA models. It iteratively perceives the environment via screenshots, produces reflective long CoT as inner monologue, and predicts the next action to be executed. OpenCUAAgent uses 3 images in total and L2 CoT format in default.

Command for running OpenCUA-7B in OSWorld:

    python run_multienv_opencua.py \
        --headless \
        --observation_type screenshot \
        --model OpenCUA-7B \
        --result_dir ./results --test_all_meta_path evaluation_examples/test_all_no_gdrive.json \
        --max_steps 100 \
        --num_envs 30  \
        --coordinate_type qwen25

Important Notes on Coordinate Systems

OpenCUA/OpenCUA-7B – Absolute coordinates
OpenCUA/OpenCUA-32B – Absolute coordinates
OpenCUA/OpenCUA-72B – Absolute coordinates

OpenCUA models output absolute coordinates after smart resize:

# Example output: pyautogui.click(x=960, y=324)
# These are coordinates on the smart-resized image, not the original image

# Convert to original image coordinates:
# Please refer to the smart_resize function in: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/67ddc82fbc7e52c6f42a395b4a6d278c55b77a39/src/transformers/models/qwen2_vl/image_processing_qwen2_vl.py#L55
def qwen25_smart_resize_to_absolute(model_x, model_y, original_width, original_height):
    # First, calculate the smart-resized dimensions
    resized_height, resized_width = smart_resize(original_height, original_width, factor = 28, min_pixels = 3136, max_pixels = 12845056)

    # Convert model output to relative coordinates on original image
    rel_x = model_x / resized_width
    rel_y = model_y / resized_height

    # Then convert to absolute coordinates on original image
    abs_x = int(rel_x * original_width)
    abs_y = int(rel_y * original_height)
    return abs_x, abs_y

Understanding Smart Resize for Qwen2.5-based Models:

The Qwen2.5-VL models use a "smart resize" preprocessing that maintains aspect ratio while fitting within pixel constraints. For coordinate conversion, you need the smart resize function from the official Qwen2.5-VL implementation.
