Shell

Builds, tests and scripts in your own shell, with output streaming into the feed as it happens. Commands are execute-tier: they ask first unless the chat is in Auto.

What it can do

Examples of the tools the agent gets from this connector. Each call shows up in the activity feed with its input and result.

1. shellcargo test --package api
2. shellpnpm build
3. shellgit status
4. shellnpx playwright test

How it connects

Sign-in

No sign-in needed. No account and no key. Install it and it is ready.

Runs as

Built into Gantry. Part of Gantry itself, written in Rust. No runtime to install.

Permissions

Reads run in every mode. Writes outside your folders, messages and anything destructive follow the chat's permission mode: they ask in Manual and Auto-edit, and are judged by the guard model in Auto. How permissions work

Install in Gantry

1. 1

   Open Connectors in the sidebar. The catalog ships with the app; nothing is downloaded until you ask.

2. 2

   Find Shell and choose Install. That is all.

3. 3

   Attach it to a chat, or leave it available to every chat in a project. The agent sees its tools from then on.
