What software is required on the host Mac?

The host Mac must have a running SSH server and the relay infrastructure (like the HTTP relay server) configured as described in the repository.

Is the connection between Claude and my Mac secure?

The connection is secured using standard SSH encryption, proxied over an HTTPS relay that requires specific API keys and private SSH keys for access.

How does Claude connect to my private desktop machine?

It uses a custom HTTP relay tunnel and Cloudflare configuration to establish a secure link through firewalls without needing to expose public ports.

Can I transfer files between Claude and my desktop?

Yes, you can use piped SSH commands to copy files in both directions, allowing Claude to read from or write to your local filesystem.

Provides secure SSH connectivity to a remote macOS desktop via an HTTP relay tunnel for command execution and file management.

소개

The ssh-desktop skill enables Claude to interact directly with a physical macOS machine by bypassing standard sandbox limitations through a custom HTTP relay tunnel. It allows for seamless remote terminal access, allowing Claude to run local scripts, manage files, and interact with the macOS environment as if it were working directly on the machine. This is ideal for developers who need to bridge their AI coding environment with their primary workstation's local resources and hardware.
