For macOS + Windows · ARM64 & x64The agent you work with in ChatGPT on the web can now use the tools and projects on your computer.
Ask your agent in ChatGPT to edit files, run builds and tests, work with Git, and use the tools already on your computer. Long-running commands can keep going while the agent checks back on the same process.
Browse, fill forms, inspect pages, and check a finished website. Agent Browser uses its own Chrome profile by default. Choose Your Browser explicitly when a task needs your personal sessions.
On macOS, enable Desktop control for supported local interactions. On macOS or Windows, add optional Telegram delivery for agent status messages.
Control Center is your place to review connections, change Agent Access, manage capabilities, and check runtime health. It runs locally on your computer, not on this website.
Understand the security modelFresh installs start in Full mode. Choose Selected roots for structured access, and manage Terminal, Desktop, and Browser separately.

Yes, for root-aware structured capabilities: switch Agent Access from Full to Selected and choose your roots. Terminal is a separate broad shell capability and is not confined to Selected roots after it starts. Disable Terminal if strict selected-root containment is your requirement.
