Worth noticing
Setup uses a locally installed app, a six-digit pairing code, and an outbound connection that avoids opening network ports.

Field notes

The described setup starts with Google sign-in, a local app install, and computer pairing through a dashboard code. Shellway says its app makes an outbound connection, avoiding the need to open ports, and that users can allow specific folders. The prompt examples range from combining CSV files into an Excel report to checking disk, memory, and CPU on a server.
