Beta

Let a website ask your machine to run a command — with you approving each one.

About this tool

A tiny Python daemon (~700 lines, standard library only) that bridges websites to your local shell through a 127.0.0.1 endpoint. Security is the whole point: a whitelist / graylist / approval model — known-safe commands run instantly, anything unknown pops a desktop dialog asking 'Run this?' before a single byte executes. The companion web page queues tasks from your browser and streams output back. Useful when a web tool needs to do something only your machine can do (open a path, run a script, build a project).
