Installation Guide

4 STEPS
1
Create a device

Open Devices → Add device. Save the one-time Device ID and Device Token.

2
No Node.js setup required

The Windows EXE includes a verified portable Node.js runtime and agent dependencies. Do not send device tokens through chat, email, screenshots or support tickets.

3
Download and extract

Use the operating-system package above and open PowerShell/Terminal in the extracted directory.

4
Run the installer

Use the matching command with your own Device ID and Token. The agent configures persistent startup automatically. On Windows, the production agent should remain hidden in the background after installation.

Windows verification

Confirm the scheduled task exists, the device becomes ONLINE, and no permanent PowerShell/Windows Terminal agent window remains open.

Linux verification

Confirm the agent service is active and persistent.

USER MANUAL

Operate Rabbit Commander safely

Pair devices, use ChatGPT or other supported MCP clients, understand approvals and manage device security without exposing secrets.

MANUAL1.1.1Agent 0.5.1

1. First-time setup

  1. Sign in to Rabbit Commander.
  2. Create the target device from Devices.
  3. Save the one-time pairing credentials.
  4. Install the correct agent package.
  5. Wait until the device is ONLINE.
  6. Connect Rabbit Commander in ChatGPT and authorize using the same account.

2. ChatGPT quick prompts

List devicesUsing Rabbit Commander, call rabbit_list_devices.
Inspect serverUsing Rabbit Commander, show processes and listening ports on my selected device.
Read a fileUsing Rabbit Commander, read /path/to/file on my selected device.
Run commandUsing Rabbit Commander, run the requested command and ask for approval before execution.

3. Approval model

Read operations can run inside the authorized device scope. Writes, moves, directory creation, shell execution, process input and termination are approval-gated.

Exact fingerprint: The approved action must match the eventual execution request. Changed command text, content or target requires a new approval.

4. Security profiles

Read onlyInspection only; blocks state-changing actions.ControlledRead access plus approval-gated changes.PrivilegedAdvanced profile for trusted devices; human gates still protect high-risk actions.

5. Files and processes

Rabbit Commander can list, read, search and read multiple UTF-8 files within allowed roots. Persistent process sessions support start, output, input and termination when shell access is enabled.

6. Tokens and reconnect

Device tokens authenticate agents. ChatGPT uses OAuth access/refresh tokens. Rotating a device token invalidates the old token, so update the agent before restarting it.

AI CLIENTS

Connect Rabbit Commander to your AI client

Rabbit Commander exposes a remote OAuth-enabled MCP server that can be used by supported AI clients. Choose your client below; setup and feature availability differ by provider.

Other MCP clientsMCP

Clients that support remote HTTP MCP plus OAuth may work with Rabbit Commander. Verify their current MCP/OAuth implementation before production use.

Remote MCP + OAuth/PKCEGeneral setup
Important: Connecting Rabbit Commander in one AI client does not automatically connect it in another. ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini each maintain their own connector configuration and authorization state.

ChatGPT — connect Rabbit Commander

REMOTE MCP

Use ChatGPT's custom MCP app/connector flow. Rabbit Commander is a remote MCP server, so no local bridge is required for the public production endpoint.

  1. Open ChatGPT Settings → Apps and enable Developer Mode / custom MCP access if your plan and workspace permit it.
  2. Create or add a custom app/connector.
  3. Use the Rabbit Commander native MCP URL shown below.
  4. Complete Rabbit Commander OAuth when ChatGPT asks you to connect.
  5. Enable/select Rabbit Commander for the message, then test rabbit_list_devices.
https://commander.zippri.com/mcp-native-v1
Test promptUsing Rabbit Commander, call rabbit_list_devices.

ChatGPT availability notes

PLAN DEPENDENT
Business / Enterprise / EduOpenAI currently documents full MCP support, including modify/write actions, through Developer Mode, subject to workspace/admin controls.ProOpenAI currently documents custom MCP use in Developer Mode with read/fetch permissions; full write MCP is more restricted than Business/Enterprise/Edu.Admin controlsWorkspace admins can control whether custom apps/connectors are allowed and which actions users may invoke.Remote onlyChatGPT connects to remote MCP servers; Rabbit Commander's public production endpoint satisfies this architecture.
OpenAI MCP app documentation

Claude — connect Rabbit Commander

CUSTOM CONNECTOR

Claude can connect to Rabbit Commander as a custom remote MCP connector. The connection is brokered from Anthropic's cloud, so use the public HTTPS MCP endpoint.

  1. Open Claude Customize → Connectors.
  2. Choose Add custom connector (Team/Enterprise owners may need to add it for the organization first).
  3. Enter Rabbit Commander as the connector name and use the native MCP URL below.
  4. Complete OAuth authorization with your Rabbit Commander account.
  5. Enable the connector for the conversation and ask Claude to call rabbit_list_devices.
https://commander.zippri.com/mcp-native-v1
Test promptUsing Rabbit Commander, call rabbit_list_devices.

Other MCP-compatible clients

VERIFY FIRST

Rabbit Commander uses a public remote MCP endpoint with OAuth. Other clients may be compatible if they support the same transport and authentication flow.

Support level: Do not label a third-party client as Rabbit Commander verified until its connection, OAuth, tool discovery and at least one read action have been tested end-to-end.

Universal support checklist

NO SECRETS
  1. Identify the AI client: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini CLI, or other.
  2. Record the AI client version/plan where applicable.
  3. Confirm Rabbit Commander OAuth completed successfully.
  4. Confirm the client can discover Rabbit Commander tools.
  1. Test rabbit_list_devices.
  2. Copy the exact error text, but never the OAuth URL/token.
  3. State whether the failure is authentication, discovery, read, or write/action approval.
  4. Never include passwords, API keys, refresh tokens, device tokens or private keys.
