Updated 1 min read

The mao command exposes bridge actions for connected agents. Run mao help in a connected terminal to see the command syntax available there.

Use a bridge command

  1. Open a connected agent terminal.
  2. Run mao help and choose the command for the task.
  3. Run the command with the peer, note, task, or other ID it needs.
  4. Use mao check <agent> or mao ask <agent> --raw <input> to inspect or type into a connected local terminal.
NoteWith arguments, mao runs a command. Without arguments, it opens the MAO desktop app.
LimitSome commands require the ORCHTOPUS permission. Agents cannot delete workspaces, folders, canvases, or layers; layers can be archived. Remote runtimes are not included.
