Ask your assistant. GDM does the downloading.

Vragen in gewone taal

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.

Het werkt met assistenten die MCP, het Model Context Protocol, ondersteunen: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code en andere.

Wat het wel en niet kan

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.

Eenmalig instellen

De server, misterdownloadmanager-mcp, bevindt zich naast de app op Windows, macOS en Linux (op Linux gebruikt u de .deb, .rpm of .tar.gz: de AppImage stelt deze niet beschikbaar). U schakelt de automatiserings-API eenmalig in met misterdownloadmanager-cli api on en vertelt uw assistent vervolgens waar de server zich bevindt. De assistent start deze vanaf dat moment zelf. De installatiehandleiding bevat het pad voor elk type installatie en de exacte invoer voor Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor en VS Code.

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

Weet waar uw gegevens naartoe gaan

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.
