Your device · your permissions
Task-focused reads
Start with the directory structure, then select specific files for analysis.
Controlled changes
Add write access only after reviewing the task and change plan.
Get started
Select a working folder
Add the project directory in local settings. Keep the first connection read-only.
Find relevant data
Ask the AI to show the structure, find a file by name or search the project text.
Review the result
For edits, enable writes in the selected folder and ask which files changed.
Example task
A prompt for your AI
On Work PC, find TODOs in the allowed project, group them by file and propose an execution order.
Permissions
Reads and writes are checked against local roots. Deletion is separate. Enabling the shell grants OS user capabilities beyond file-tool roots.
Details
Less irrelevant context
Specify the directory and file types. For large projects, ask for a structure map and relevant file list first.
Data in the AI client
Read results reach the selected AI service. Allow folders containing data suitable for that task.
Frequently asked questions
Are writes required?
No. Search, reads and analysis work with read-only access.
What happens when I remove a folder from access?
Subsequent file requests to that folder are denied. The files remain on the device.
Can I select multiple folders?
Yes. Add the required directories separately and review write permissions for each.
