Questions

Can ChatGPT run log4cxx on my computer?
Yes. With BCD on your Mac or Linux computer and command permission turned on for it, ChatGPT runs log4cxx there and reads the output. Claude and other apps with MCP connectors can too.

Do I need to install log4cxx first?
No. If Homebrew is installed, the AI can run brew install log4cxx 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.
