Paste one setup prompt. Then send the work.

You do this once per agent. After that, “do this on your own computer” is enough.

A close view of code on a laptop screen

The setup prompt is a short block of text. It tells your agent how to reach the computer through MCP, the plug-in that lets Claude call us.

Copy it from the computer page. Paste it into the agent once. You should see the computer listed after that.

One paste per harness

Claude Code, Codex, Hermes, and OpenClaw each get their own page under Docs. Each page is one paste. You do not mix them.

If the agent cannot see the computer, paste the prompt again. Then ask it to list computers. You should see the name you picked.

Then talk like a person

You do not need a special command language. Say “file last month’s invoices on your own computer.” Say “watch the screen and stop if a login appears.”

The agent already knows the desk. You just point at the work.
