Record & Replay is available on macOS. Initial availability excludes the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. Computer Use must also be available and enabled. Record & Replay lets you demonstrate a workflow on your Mac and turn it into a reusable skill. Use it when the workflow is repetitive, depends on your preferences, or is easier to show than to describe in a prompt. For example, you might record how you file an expense, book a parking space, create a correctly configured issue, publish a video, or download a recurring report. ZeroTwo or ZeroCode can package the pattern into a skill that you can use again with Computer Use, browser actions, connected plugins, or a combination of them.

​
Before you start

Pick a workflow that you already know how to complete. Record & Replay works best when the steps are stable and the success criteria are clear.

​
Start a recording

1

In the ZeroTwo desktop app, select ZeroTwo and turn on Work in the switcher, or select ZeroCode. Then open **Plugins**.

2

Open the **+** menu.

3

Select **Record a skill**.

4

Review the suggested prompt, add any helpful context, and submit it.

5

When the chat asks for permission to record your actions, approve the

request once you are ready to demonstrate the workflow.
6

Perform the workflow on your Mac.

7

When you are done, stop recording from the menu bar or overlay, or tell the

chat that you are done.
During recording, ZeroTwo or ZeroCode observes the actions and window content needed to learn the workflow. Recording continues until you stop it. Keep the recording focused on the task you want the skill to teach. After you stop recording, ZeroTwo or ZeroCode inspects the captured workflow and drafts a skill. The skill explains when to use the workflow, what inputs it needs, what steps to follow, and how to verify the result. You can also ask for further refinements.

​
Replay the workflow

Start a new ZeroTwo or ZeroCode chat and ask it to use the generated skill. Give it the values that are different this time, such as the file to upload, the issue to create, or the date range for the report. The product uses the skill as reusable context for the task. It can then complete the workflow with the tools available in the current environment, including Computer Use, browser actions, and installed plugins.

​
Tips for better recordings

  • Keep the demonstration short and complete.
  • State your goal and any specific inputs that might vary between skill uses before you start recording.
  • Use realistic inputs, but avoid secrets and sensitive data.
  • Refine the skill after recording to call out hidden preferences that matter, such as naming conventions, field defaults, or decision points.
  • Stop recording when the workflow is complete instead of continuing into unrelated cleanup.

​
When to build another plugin

Record & Replay is a fast way to create a skill from a demonstrated workflow. If you want to distribute a separate stable package across a team, bundle multiple skills, include connectors, add MCP servers, or manage install metadata, package that workflow as its own plugin. See Build plugins.

Troubleshooting

​
I don’t see Record & Replay

If your organization manages ZeroCode with requirements.toml, the [features].computer_use requirement controls Record & Replay too. Setting computer_use = false makes both features unavailable.
