Describe the bug

When I run interpreter --os

And then attempt a command like:
Play a boiler room set on youtube

I get a NameError:

▌ OS Control enabled                                                                                                                                                                

To find items on the screen, Open Interpreter has been instructed to send screenshots to api.openinterpreter.com (we do not store them). Add --offline to attempt this locally.       

Make sure that screen recording permissions are enabled for your Terminal or Python environment.                                                                                      

Warning: In this mode, Open Interpreter will not require approval before performing actions. Be ready to close your terminal.

  The first step is to open YouTube. We can do this by using a keyboard hotkey to open Spotlight and then typing "Safari" to open the browser. Once Safari is open, we can navigate   
  to YouTube by writing the URL in the address bar. Let's start by opening Safari.

  It seems there was a mistake in my attempt to run the code. "computer" is not recognized as defined within the current execution environment. Let's correct this by using the       
  appropriate syntax to execute the code on your machine. We will try to open Safari using the correct approach. Let's run the correct code.

And it just gets stuck in this loop where computer is not defined.

Reproduce

1. interpreter --os
2. Play a boiler room set on youtube

Expected behavior

For it to be able to open Safari or my default web browser without a Name Error of computer.

Screenshots

No response

Open Interpreter version

0.2.0

Python version

3.9.6

Operating System name and version

macOS 14.0

Additional context

I have 2 python versions installed. 3.9.6 and 3.10.8. I installed interpreter on both.

[youssefabdelm]

More context:

1. I installed open-interpreter a few weeks ago but then updated open-interpreter to try 0.2.0
2. I ran the command it didn't work, so I uninstalled, re-installed, and it still gave me the same error

[youssefabdelm]

Update: When I tell it not to use computer, and just go with Apple Script stuff, it tends to work fine, but I know this isn't optimal of course.

[Notnaton]

Does the same error happen when using python 3.10?

[youssefabdelm]

Does the same error happen when using python 3.10?

Is there a way to run the interpreter --os command but specify python3.10?

[slavakurilyak]

I think this is a scope issue as I was able to resolve it with a user/system prompt:

'''

To use your computer tools, run the following commands:

# computer tool
from interpreter.core.computer.computer import Computer
computer = Computer()

# clipboard tool
from interpreter.core.computer.clipboard.clipboard import Clipboard
clipboard = Clipboard(computer)

# display tool
from interpreter.core.computer.display.display import Display
display = Display(computer)

# keyboard tool
from interpreter.core.computer.keyboard.keyboard import Keyboard
keyboard = Keyboard(computer)

# mouse tool
from interpreter.core.computer.mouse.mouse import Mouse
mouse = Mouse(computer)

# os tool
from interpreter.core.computer.os.os import Os
os = Os(computer)

# terminal tool
from interpreter.core.computer.terminal.terminal import Terminal
terminal = Terminal()

'''

I tried the above but now I'm getting. I just added what you provided in my first prompt to interpreter --os on the command line.

Try adding from interpreter import interpreter

[CyanideByte]

Does the same error happen when using python 3.10?

Happens to me on conda python 3.11 too.

[mikefrostov]

Happens to me on freshly installed Windows 10 machine running LM Studio + python 3.11.7 + any local model.
Tried to install 'computer' package using pip, but apparently it's something else. The model had problems calling computer.mouse etc, since the package doesn't have these.
Trying to bypass this problem with clear instructions with no luck so far:

interpreter -l -y --os
▌ OS Control enabled
Setting up local OS control...
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
▌ Local Vision enabled (experimental)
Ensure LM Studio's local server is running in the background and using a vision-compatible model.
Run interpreter --local with no other arguments for a setup guide.

> Please open powershell window on host machine. Use Python programming language with module interpreter.core.computer to manipulate the host machine.

[CyanideByte]

I'm pretty sure this is the model hallucinating the api in the wrong format, not an actual package thats missing.

[chirayu-2001]

Hey, I am also facing the same error :
NameError: name 'computer' is not defined

Were you able to resolve it?

[MikeBirdTech]

@youssefabdelm @CyanideByte @chirayu-2001 @1qzxc @slavakurilyak

Hello all,
This should be resolved now. Can you please try running pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall git+https://github.com/KillianLucas/open-interpreter.git to see if the issue is resolved?

[mikefrostov]

Honestly, I don't see any changes besides being able to run it instead of 'interpreter -l -y --os' the 'interpreter -p local -y --os'

I have been able to somewhat make it use proper classname by changing 'start_terminal_interface.py' string to

You may use the `interpreter` Python module to complete tasks:

```python
interpreter.interpreter.computer.display.view() # Shows you what's on the screen, returns a `pil_image` `in case you need it (rarely). **You almost always want to do this first!**

interpreter.interpreter.computer.keyboard.hotkey(" ", "command") # Opens spotlight (very useful)
interpreter.interpreter.computer.keyboard.write("hello")

interpreter.interpreter.computer.mouse.click("text onscreen") # This clicks on the UI element with that text. Use this **frequently** and get creative! To click a video, you could pass the *timestamp* (which is usually written on the thumbnail) into this.
interpreter.interpreter.computer.mouse.move("open recent >") # This moves the mouse over the UI element with that text. Many dropdowns will disappear if you click them. You have to hover over items to reveal more.
interpreter.interpreter.computer.mouse.click(x=500, y=500) # Use this very, very rarely. It's highly inaccurate
interpreter.interpreter.computer.mouse.click(icon="gear icon") # Moves mouse to the icon with that description. Use this very often

interpreter.interpreter.computer.mouse.scroll(-10) # Scrolls down. If you don't find some text on screen that you expected to be there, you probably want to do this
x, y = interpreter.interpreter.computer.display.center() # Get your bearings

interpreter.interpreter.computer.clipboard.view() # Returns contents of clipboard
interpreter.interpreter.computer.os.get_selected_text() # Use frequently. If editing text, the user often wants this

I build it and install with poetry locally
I am not sure if this is a proper approach
