OmniGet

English · Português (Brasil) · Русский · 简体中文

An MCP server that gives your coding agent a whole desktop toolbox.

Downloads, media, files, your chats and your computer, behind one local server.
Free, open source, and everything runs on your machine.

Connect in one minute

1. Open OmniGet.

2. Paste this line into Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor or any agent that can run a command:

Connect to OmniGet: run curl -s "http://127.0.0.1:47720/connect" and follow the steps.

3. OmniGet comes to the front with the tool's name and a short code. Check the code and click Allow.

OmniGet writes its server and a private token into that tool's own config. Restart the tool and the OmniGet tools are there. Prefer buttons? Settings → AI & agents → Connect to other apps does the same with one click per tool.

Then just ask:

Download this playlist as audio and tell me when every file is done: <url>
Here are 12 links. Queue them, wait, and tell me which failed and why.
Turn this folder into one file I can paste into a prompt, under 50k tokens.
What is using port 3000? Stop it.

What your agent can do

Downloads	Queue one link or twenty, list formats, wait, pause, retry, read the diagnosis when one fails
Whole sites and courses	Drive the built-in browser, read a page within a token budget, download a course in order, write a connector for a new site
Files and media	Convert, read finished files, search your book library
Developer tools	Folder to one prompt-ready file, page to clean Markdown, HTTP requests, ports, JSON, JWT, hashes, regex, FTP and SFTP
Chats and feeds	Read and reply in your linked chats and social feeds, with your own session
Agents	List workspaces, start and follow jobs, read diffs, see pending approvals, drive the Canvas
Memory	Recall and teach what the app remembers between sessions
Your computer	Scan for junk and plan a cleanup; running it waits for your click

Results come back as structured data, long ones are cut to a limit and saved to a file, and every error says what to do next.

---

Configure it by hand

The server speaks MCP over HTTP at http://127.0.0.1:47720/mcp. Create a connection in Settings → AI & agents → Connect to other apps → More options to get a token and a ready-made snippet for your tool.

Claude Code

read -rs OMNIGET_MCP_TOKEN && export OMNIGET_MCP_TOKEN
claude mcp add --transport http --scope project omniget http://127.0.0.1:47720/mcp \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer ${OMNIGET_MCP_TOKEN}'

Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "omniget": {
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:47720/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json)

{
  "servers": {
    "omniget": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:47720/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" }
    }
  }
}

Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)

[mcp_servers.omniget]
url = "http://127.0.0.1:47720/mcp"
http_headers = { Authorization = "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" }

Claude Desktop and other stdio-only clients

omniget-mcp ships with every release and bridges stdio to the running app.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "omniget": {
      "command": "omniget-mcp",
      "env": {
        "OMNIGET_MCP_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:47720/mcp",
        "OMNIGET_MCP_TOKEN": "YOUR_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

It does not connect

• APP_NOT_RUNNING: open OmniGet and keep the server on in Settings → AI & agents.
• UNAUTHORIZED or 401: the token is missing or was revoked. Create a connection again and paste the new snippet.
• A tool is missing: the connection does not have that permission. Tick it under More options.
• Port in use: OmniGet tries 47720 to 47729; the settings page shows the one in use.

---

You stay in control

• Local only. The server listens on 127.0.0.1 and refuses requests from web pages.
• A token per tool. Each connection has its own token and only the permissions you tick. Revoke one without touching the others.
• Your click, not the agent's. New connections, cleanups and anything that posts or sends wait for you in the OmniGet window. An agent can never approve its own request.
• Secrets stay put. Cookies, tokens and keys are never returned to an agent.
• No account, no telemetry about what you download. OmniGet goes online for the sites you ask for, for updates, and for the model provider you configured.

---

The Canvas

A board where Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode or a local model run side by side in terminals. Draw a cord and two agents can talk. Turn on Lead Mode and one agent recruits and coordinates the others. Usage limits for each account sit on the edge of the screen.

Quick tools

Loop sits in your menu bar or tray. One click on the icon opens a small panel: keep the computer awake, clipboard history, saved snippets, a live system monitor, volume per app, and shortcuts to capture, dictation and the cleaner. On Windows, macOS and Linux; each system shows only what works there. With the panel closed, only what you turned on keeps running.

---

Install

Download from getomniget.com. The page lists the SHA-256 of every file. Updates arrive inside the app.

Windows 10 and 11	Installer .exe, portable .exe, .msi
macOS 10.15+	.dmg for Apple Silicon and Intel
Linux	.deb, .rpm, .AppImage for x86_64 and ARM64

First launch warnings and antivirus

OmniGet ships without a paid code-signing certificate, so each system asks once.

• Windows: SmartScreen shows a blue box. Click More info, then Run anyway.

• macOS: if Gatekeeper says the app is "damaged", move it to Applications and run:

  xattr -cr /Applications/omniget.app
  codesign --force --deep --sign - /Applications/omniget.app
  

• Linux AppImage: on a libfuse error, run sudo apt install libfuse2 or use the .deb.

• Antivirus: a few engines flag new unsigned builds by mistake. Compare the file's SHA-256 with SHA256SUMS, then report the false positive to the vendor. Do not turn your antivirus off.

Command line

omniget-cli and omniget-mcp come with every release. Add --json for machine-readable output.

omniget-cli info <url>                        # title, formats and size
omniget-cli download <url> -q 1080 -o ~/Videos
omniget-cli batch links.txt -m 3              # one URL per line, 3 at a time
omniget-cli convert notes.md --to html
omniget-cli usage --watch 60                  # usage limits per account

The claude-plugin/ folder is a Claude Code plugin that fetches and transcribes media from a link, with or without the desktop app.

Build from source

You need Rust (pinned in rust-toolchain.toml), Node.js (see .nvmrc) and pnpm.

pnpm install
pnpm tauri dev

pnpm tauri dev uses its own profile, so it never touches an installed OmniGet. pnpm dev:web opens the interface in a browser with no Rust build. Read CONTRIBUTING.md before sending code.

OmniGet downloads what your own session can already open. It does not bypass DRM, break paywalls or share credentials. It is meant for personal copies and content you have the right to keep; you are responsible for copyright and each platform's terms. Platform owners: see PLATFORM-OWNERS.md.
