Current release: 0.2.0-preview.0. Free MIT local agent; free hosted technical preview. The OpenAI listing for version 0.2.0 was submitted on 22 September 2026 and was last observed in Review on 23 September. It is not approved or published in the ChatGPT directory.

Choose your connection

ChatGPT plan and workspace eligibility are separate. Bridge requires no AI API key or purchase. It is not a chatbot, a hosted computer or a graphical remote-desktop stream. See the complete installation instructions before enabling file and terminal access.

A useful first task

Start in a disposable folder. Ask Bridge to read a text file, change one marker using the file's current hash, read it back and run a harmless print command. You can inspect both the changed file and the real exit code. Once that works, use the same read → change → check workflow on a project you are authorized to operate.

The 13 tools cover file information, directory listing, bounded reads, hash-checked writes and edits, literal search, image viewing, and process start/read/input/stop/list. SSH is available only through process calls targeting an alias you explicitly configure; no remote host is enabled by default.

Know the access you grant

Owner-level access, not a sandbox. Shell commands can modify or delete data and use the network with your OS user's privileges. Checked edits reduce accidental stale writes; they are not a backup or a restriction on shell commands. Keep backups and review important actions.

In local-only mode the agent has no Ganado account, usage telemetry or licence check. The optional connect mode contacts Ganado's authenticated HTTPS relay. Requested file content and command output are sent to your AI client. Relay queue envelopes are encrypted, but the live relay processes the request and response—this is not zero-knowledge hosting. Read Security and the privacy disclosure.

Ctrl-C stops the live connection. node bin/bridge.mjs disconnect revokes the device before removing its local identity. Revocation does not undo past edits or guarantee that an already-running command has stopped. After an uncertain timeout, inspect state before repeating a write or command.

Verify the build

Download the versioned 0.2 bundle, check SHA256SUMS, and review the public artifact acceptance run. Automated archive tests passed on macOS and Ubuntu; macOS remains the primary supported preview. Those tests do not establish a notarized native app, every desktop-client UI, independent customer adoption or a security certification.

The released ZIP is immutable. Current source documentation can be newer than the documentation inside that ZIP; the current MIT licence also applies to earlier evaluation downloads. See Release status for the exact boundary.
