Ask your assistant. GDM does the downloading.

Chiedi a parole semplici

With the server set up, you can ask your assistant things like "What is GDM downloading right now, and how long is left?", "Download this ISO to my ISOs folder tonight, don't start it yet", or "Remove the finished downloads from the list but keep the files". The assistant turns that into requests to GDM and tells you what happened.

Funziona con gli assistenti che supportano MCP, il Model Context Protocol: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code e altri.

Cosa può fare e cosa non può fare

The assistant can list your downloads with their status, size, progress and speed, and filter them by status or by name. It can add an http, https, ftp or ftps address and start it or only queue it, in the folder and under the name you say. A magnet link opens Add torrent in GDM, for you to choose the files. It can pause, resume and remove downloads, deleting the files only when asked, and start the main download queue.

It can't change GDM's options, see your browser, or turn on GDM's automation API by itself. GDM has to be running: the server can't start it for you.

Si configura una volta

Il server, misterdownloadmanager-mcp, si trova accanto all'app su Windows, macOS e Linux (su Linux usa .deb, .rpm o .tar.gz: l'AppImage non lo espone). Attiva l'API di automazione una volta con misterdownloadmanager-cli api on, poi indica al tuo assistente dove si trova il server. L'assistente lo avvierà da solo da quel momento in poi. La guida alla configurazione contiene il percorso per ogni tipo di installazione e l'esatta voce per Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor e VS Code.

Without the API, the assistant can still add downloads, as GDM's command line can.

Sai dove vanno i tuoi dati

GDM itself still sends nothing anywhere: the server talks only to the GDM on this computer, over a token-protected local channel. But what the assistant reads, it passes on to its own AI service. When it lists your downloads, their file names, addresses and folders go to that service, under that service's privacy terms. Turn the API off with misterdownloadmanager-cli api off, or remove the server from the assistant, when you don't want that.
