35 of 35 tools

Documented tools (35)

From project documentation. A server handshake does not verify each tool’s description or behavior.

apply_patch

Apply or check a unified diff with git apply

audit_tail

Read the local bridge audit tail

bridge_status

Runtime identity, paths, permissions context, shell, audit mode, Codex binary, focus policy, and background-Chrome status

chatgpt_extension_status

Inspect the installed ChatGPT Chrome extension, OpenAI native-host registration, and live read-only page-bridge status without patching the OpenAI extension

chrome_click

Click an element in an approved tab without foregrounding Chrome

chrome_close

Release an MDB workspace tab back to the idle pool, or close a non-workspace background tab

chrome_fill

Fill inputs, textareas, selects, or contenteditable fields in the background

chrome_navigate

Navigate an approved tab without selecting it

chrome_open

Lease an idle tab from the persistent MDB group and open a URL without creating a new tab

chrome_snapshot

Read visible text and interactive elements from an approved tab

chrome_tabs

List tabs in the real signed-in Chrome profile without activating Chrome; scoped only when Strict approvals is on

chrome_workspace_setup

Create or expand the MDB pool while Chrome is already foreground; default target is eight reusable tabs

chrome_workspace_status

Inspect the extension-owned MDB Chrome group, lease activity, and reusable background-tab pool; no website grant required

codex_thread_list

Search and page stored Codex threads

codex_thread_read

Read a stored Codex thread without resuming it

codex_thread_turns_list

Page stored turns with full, summary, or omitted items

Concurrency.

The session cap is taken, not merely checked, so concurrent ptystart calls cannot exceed it.

Containment.

See SECURITY.md — ptyclose reports leaderGroupGone, ttyProcessesKilled and uncontainedPids separately, and containmentVerified is true only when nothing survived.

fs_list

Recursive or non-recursive directory listing

fs_manage

mkdir, remove, move, copy, chmod, or symlink

fs_read

Read text or base64 with offset pagination

fs_stat

lstat metadata and symlink target

fs_write

Atomic replace, create, append, or binary write

pty_close

End the session and reclaim it

pty_read

Read the transcript from a byte cursor, optionally long-polling

pty_resize

Change the window size, confirmed by a kernel read-back

pty_signal

Signal the session's process group

pty_start

Start a program on a real terminal and return a session id

pty_write

Send keystrokes, including control characters

Retention.

Each session keeps the last MACDEVBRIDGEPTYRINGBYTES of output in a fixed ring; ptyread reports lostBytes when a cursor falls behind it.

shell_exec

Run any foreground shell command, optionally with cwd, env, stdin, timeout, and output cap

shell_job_kill

Signal a background process group

shell_job_list

List persistent job metadata

shell_job_status

Inspect running state and log tails

shell_start

Start a detached long-running process
