Ask your assistant. GDM does the downloading.

Demandez en langage naturel

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.

Cela fonctionne avec les assistants qui prennent en charge MCP, le Model Context Protocol : Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code et d'autres.

Ce qu'il peut faire et ce qu'il ne peut pas faire

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.

Configuration unique

Le serveur, misterdownloadmanager-mcp, se trouve à côté de l'application sur Windows, macOS et Linux (sur Linux, utilisez le .deb, .rpm ou .tar.gz : l'AppImage ne l'expose pas). Vous activez l'API d'automatisation une seule fois avec misterdownloadmanager-cli api on, puis vous indiquez à votre assistant où se trouve le serveur. L'assistant le démarrera ensuite automatiquement. Le guide de configuration contient le chemin pour chaque type d'installation et l'entrée exacte pour Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor et VS Code.

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

Sachez où vont vos données

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.
