Automated excerpt
big-arrow-on-the-screen (bigarrow): one small macOS CLI and an agent skill. Drawing needs neither. --element, elements, --until-click and front --window use Accessibility, which macOS grants to the app that runs your shell (Terminal, iTerm2, Ghostty, VS Code, Claude), never to bigarrow itself. bigarrow doctor names that app, and exit code 4 tells the agent exactly what to ask you for. --window App:title reads window titles, which macOS 26 hides without Screen Recording; --window App alone needs nothing. Clicking the arrow never takes the focus.
