Questions
Can ChatGPT run md2pdf on my computer?
Yes. With BCD on your Mac or Linux computer and command permission turned on for it, ChatGPT runs md2pdf there and reads the output. Claude and other apps with MCP connectors can too.
Do I need to install md2pdf first?
No. If Homebrew is installed, the AI can run brew install md2pdf 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.
