Questions
Can ChatGPT run oauth2l on my computer?
Yes. With BCD on your Mac or Linux computer and command permission turned on for it, ChatGPT runs oauth2l there and reads the output. Claude and other apps with MCP connectors can too.
Do I need to install oauth2l first?
No. If Homebrew is installed, the AI can run brew install oauth2l 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.
