Computer Use now rejects Python runtimes below 3.9 before running pip,
keeps Pillow on the Python 3.9-compatible 11.x line, and falls back from
the configured mirror to the default PyPI index when dependency installs
fail.
Constraint: Pillow 11.3 requires Python 3.9+, while user machines may resolve a different Python than expected
Rejected: Downgrade Pillow to the Python 3.8-compatible 10.x line | current product direction assumes modern Python installs
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Keep runtime package ranges aligned with the setup Python minimum before changing either side

Not-tested: Real Windows 10 machine dependency install against the reported user environment
Bypass all three gating layers (compile-time feature flag, subscription
check, GrowthBook remote config) and replace Anthropic's private native
modules (@ant/computer-use-swift, @ant/computer-use-input) with a Python
bridge using pyautogui + mss + pyobjc. Works on any macOS with any
Anthropic-protocol compatible model.
