Questions

Can ChatGPT run i2pd on my computer?
Yes. With BCD on your Mac or Linux computer and command permission turned on for it, ChatGPT runs i2pd there and reads the output. Claude and other apps with MCP connectors can too.

Do I need to install i2pd first?
No. If Homebrew is installed, the AI can run brew install i2pd for you.

Is it safe?
A new computer starts read-only: running commands is turned on per computer, and BCD reaches only the folders you allow.
