Can ChatGPT run xk6 on my computer?
Yes. With BCD on your Mac or Linux computer and command permission turned on for it, ChatGPT runs xk6 there and reads the output. Claude and other apps with MCP connectors can too.

Do I need to install xk6 first?
No. If Homebrew is installed, the AI can run brew install xk6 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.
