Ask your assistant. GDM does the downloading.

Pide con palabras sencillas

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.

Funciona con asistentes compatibles con MCP, el Protocolo de Contexto de Modelo: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code y otros.

Lo que puede hacer y lo que no

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.

Configurar una vez

El servidor, misterdownloadmanager-mcp, se instala junto a la aplicación en Windows, macOS y Linux (en Linux usa el .deb, .rpm o .tar.gz: el AppImage no lo expone). Activas la API de automatización una vez con misterdownloadmanager-cli api on, y luego le dices a tu asistente dónde está el servidor. El asistente lo iniciará por sí mismo a partir de entonces. La guía de configuración tiene la ruta para cada tipo de instalación y la entrada exacta para Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor y VS Code.

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

Conoce dónde van tus datos

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.
