# wl-tools - Compositor-Agnostic Desktop Automation Tools ## Overview Provides CLI tools for desktop automation — Wayland-native, X11, and clipboard. Used by the `ov eval wl` command. Works on all wlroots compositors (sway, labwc). No daemon or special device access needed. **Note:** Screenshots are NOT included in this layer. Use `wl-screenshot-grim` (sway) or `wl-screenshot-pixelflux` (selkies) depending on your compositor. ## Layer Definition ```yaml rpm: packages: - wtype - wl

Claude Code multi-agent support in Overthink — sub-agents, dynamic workflows, and agent teams, and how each drives the existing `ov eval` disposable beds to test and verify. MUST be invoked before authoring or invoking an ov sub-agent / dynamic workflow / agent team, wiring agent-lifecycle hooks, or asking "which primitive should drive the R10 beds?".
