Field notes
The page says Breakpatch runs Qwen3-VL 4B through MLX on Apple Silicon, with an optional 8B model for Macs with 32 GB of memory. Its described workflow lets users type a step such as “click the Done button,” confirm the element found on screen, then replay named steps and inspect a report. The page lists macOS 14 or later and 16 GB of memory as requirements, and says the model download is about 3 GB.
