title Input Tracking
openapi POST /input-tracking/start
description Start and stop input tracking on the Bytebot desktop

The Bytebot daemon can monitor mouse and keyboard events through the InputTracking module. Tracking is disabled by default and can be toggled via the REST API. Tracked actions are streamed over WebSockets so that the agent can store them as messages.

Start Tracking

POST /input-tracking/start

Begins capturing input events. The endpoint returns a simple status object:

{
  "status": "started"
}

Stop Tracking

POST /input-tracking/stop

Stops capturing events and clears any internal buffers. The response is similar to the start endpoint:

{
  "status": "stopped"
}

WebSocket Stream

When tracking is active, actions are emitted on the input_action channel of the WebSocket server running on the daemon. Clients can connect to the daemon and listen for these events to persist them as needed.
