What it does

CrossMacro lets you record, replay, schedule and script desktop actions (mouse clicks, keystrokes, window focus) on Windows, macOS and Linux from a single UI or CLI.

When to use it
  • •You need to automate repetitive UI tasks (e.g., data entry in a legacy web form) without writing code.
  • •You want to schedule a macro to run at a specific time each day (e.g., opening a dashboard every morning).
  • •You need a reliable text‑expansion tool that works on Wayland as well as X11 on Linux.
Ready-to-paste prompt
crossmacro schedule --file Macros/OpenDashboard.json --cron "0 9 * * MON-FRI"   # runs the macro every weekday at 09:00
Heads up: CrossMacro requires the .NET 7 runtime and on Linux you must have a Wayland‑compatible session (or X11) and the `uinput` module loaded; otherwise the CLI cannot synthesize mouse/keyboard events.
