Overview

What is Conduit Desktop?

Conduit Desktop is a cross-platform remote connection manager for SSH, RDP, VNC, and web sessions, packaged with an encrypted credential vault and a built-in Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. It allows AI agents like Claude Code or Codex to drive all connection, session, and credential operations through tool calls, making it an infrastructure bridge for DevOps, SREs, sysadmins, and AI-first engineers.

How to use Conduit Desktop?

Install the app from GitHub Releases or conduitdesktop.com, then register its MCP server with your AI agent. For Claude Code, run a command like claude mcp add conduit -- node "/Applications/Conduit.app/Contents/Resources/mcp/dist/index.js" --env CONDUIT_SOCKET_PATH="..." --env CONDUIT_ENV="production" (paths vary by OS). After setup, ask your agent to list connections, run commands, or interact with remote desktops — the agent communicates with Conduit over a local Unix socket or Windows named pipe.

Frequently asked questions

1

How is Conduit different from other remote connection managers?

Conduit ships a built-in MCP server that exposes every connection and credential operation as tools for AI agents — no other manager offers this.

2

Does Conduit ship its own AI or require an additional subscription?

No. Conduit does not include its own AI. You bring your own Claude Code or Codex subscription, and Conduit never proxies your API calls.

3

Where are credentials stored?

All credentials live in a local AES-256 encrypted vault. Cloud sync is optional and uses zero-knowledge encryption; keys never leave the client.

4

What transport does the MCP server use?

The MCP server communicates over a local Unix socket (or named pipe on Windows). Conduit never sees your API keys, tokens, or conversation content.

5

Is the Conduit Desktop client open source?

Yes. The entire desktop client — including the Electron app, protocol handlers, FreeRDP helper, MCP server, and credential vault — is Apache 2.0 licensed.
