Install

brew install wakatime-cli

“Install wakatime-cli with Homebrew and show me its version”
“Read wakatime-cli --help and give me three useful examples for my files”
“Update wakatime-cli and tell me what changed”

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

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