    • RE: Operation on VMware virtual PCs

      @hondaru2004, here's a powershell script that will create a new computer in your TRIGGERcmd account. It assumes you installed the agent on the master PC you cloned because it uses the token.tkn file from that install for authentication. It writes the computer ID and computer name to the config files in the user's home directory. I hope this helps.

      # === Configuration ===
      $urlprefix = "https://triggercmd.com"
      $computername = $env:COMPUTERNAME
      
      # Read token from TRIGGERcmd token file
      $tokenPath = Join-Path $env:USERPROFILE ".TRIGGERcmdData\token.tkn"
      
      if (Test-Path $tokenPath) {
          $token = Get-Content $tokenPath -Raw | ForEach-Object { $_.Trim() }
          Write-Host "Token loaded from: $tokenPath" -ForegroundColor Green
      } else {
          Write-Host "Error: Token file not found at $tokenPath" -ForegroundColor Red
          Read-Host "Press Enter to exit"
          exit 1
      }
      
      # === Perform the POST request ===
      Write-Host "Making API request..." -ForegroundColor Green
      
      $headers = @{
          "Authorization" = "Bearer $token"
          "Content-Type" = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
      }
      
      $body = "name=$computername"
      
      try {
          $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "$urlprefix/api/computer/save" -Method POST -Headers $headers -Body $body
          
          # === Display the full response ===
          Write-Host "`nAPI Response:" -ForegroundColor Yellow
          $response | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 10 | Write-Host
          
          # === Extract and save the ID ===
          $computerId = $response.data.id
          
          if ($computerId) {
              # Save ID to TRIGGERcmd config file
              $computerIdPath = Join-Path $env:USERPROFILE ".TRIGGERcmdData\computerid.cfg"
              $computerNamePath = Join-Path $env:USERPROFILE ".TRIGGERcmdData\computername.cfg"
              
              # Ensure the directory exists
              $triggerCmdDir = Split-Path $computerIdPath -Parent
              if (!(Test-Path $triggerCmdDir)) {
                  New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $triggerCmdDir -Force | Out-Null
              }
              
              # Save ID to file
              $computerId | Out-File -FilePath $computerIdPath -Encoding ASCII -NoNewline
      
              # Save computer name to file
              $computername | Out-File -FilePath $computerNamePath -Encoding ASCII -NoNewline
              
              Write-Host "`nExtracted ID: $computerId" -ForegroundColor Cyan
              Write-Host "ID saved to: $computerIdPath" -ForegroundColor Green
              Write-Host "Computer name saved to: $computerNamePath" -ForegroundColor Green
          } else {
              Write-Host "`nError: Could not find ID in response" -ForegroundColor Red
          }
          
      } catch {
          Write-Host "`nError making API request:" -ForegroundColor Red
          Write-Host $_.Exception.Message -ForegroundColor Red
      }
      
      Write-Host "`nRequest completed." -ForegroundColor Green
      

      Run the script with a command like this:
      powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\change_tcmd_id.ps1

      Or, you could just delete the computerid.cfg file and it will prompt you for the token like when you first install the agent.

    • RE: Opening in a particular Window size

      @JRSF-Home

      Think script worked pretty well for me. It does something similar to your use-case. It opens a Youtube video in a new Chrome window in a specific location on the screen, with specific dimensions, and presses the Like button.

      It uses a Chrome dev tools console command to find the like button and click it.

      "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --new-window https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1I9qC0Zo_PM
      timeout 4
      REM x y width height
      nircmd win setsize stitle "Allow friends to control Spotify" 200 100 800 1000
      nircmd win activate stitle "Allow friends to control Spotify"
      
      REM open dev tools
      nircmd sendkeypress F12
      timeout 3
      
      REM type document.querySelector('like-button-view-model button[aria-label*="like"]').click()
      nircmd sendkeypress d o c u m e n t 0xBE q u e r y Shift+s e l e c t o r Shift+0x39 0xDE l i k e 0xBD b u t t o n 0xBD v i e w 0xBD m o d e l spc b u t t o n 0xDB
      nircmd sendkeypress a r i a 0xBD l a b e l Shift+0x38 0xBB Shift+0xDE l i k e Shift+0xDE 0xDD 0xDE Shift+0x30 0xBE c l i c k Shift+0x39 Shift+0x30 
      
      REM press enter 
      nircmd sendkeypress 0x0D
      timeout 1
      
      REM close dev tools
      nircmd sendkeypress F12
      

      It's a little low-tech because it simulates a lot of key presses. There's probably a better way using puppeteer or selenium but this works if you don't care.

    • RE: Opening in a particular Window size

      @JRSF-Home, I see what you're trying to do and why.

      Here's a long command line that uses && to combine multiple commands into one:

      "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --new-window https://triggercmd.com && timeout 5 && nircmd win activate stitle "TRIGGERcmd: Remotely run" && nircmd win setsize stitle "TRIGGERcmd: Remotely run" 800 100 500 500
      

      It opens triggercmd.com in a new Chrome window, waits 5 seconds, then resizes and positions the window.

      Personally, instead of that super long command line I would create a .bat file like this and have TRIGGERcmd run the .bat file.

      "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --new-window https://triggercmd.com
      timeout 5
      nircmd win activate stitle "TRIGGERcmd: Remotely run"
      nircmd win setsize stitle "TRIGGERcmd: Remotely run" 800 100 500 500
      

      The nircmd win command parameters aren't super intuitive, but you can see how I had it find the Chrome window by the "TRIGGERcmd: Remotely run" text that the Chrome window's title starts with.
      https://nircmd.nirsoft.net/win.html

      I know you also want to click a button on the page. I'm looking into how to run a command like this in the Chrome console using the keyboard so you could have nircmd do that part too:

      document.querySelector('#yourButtonId').click();
      

      Please try the script or command though. It worked for me.

      This shows how I simulated clicking the Sign In button on the triggercmd.com login page using this method. Now I just need to figure out the series of keystrokes to automate it with nircmd.

    • RE: Opening in a particular Window size

      @Xander, got it. Sorry I thought you were suggesting he use Chrome to launch a shortcut. I get your original meaning now.

      Just so it's clear to OP, he could put start c:\path\to\shortcut.lnk in the Command field or include it in his script that TRIGGERcmd could run for him. Example:

      start C:\Users\russe\Desktop\Claude.lnk
      

      Then if he pre-configured the Run field of that .lnk shortcut, he could make it open Maximized.

      As for OP's 3rd request - to click a button within that window, I'd ask ChatGPT. Just asked it "how to click a button on a web page with a script." here:

    • RE: MacOS - A JavaScript error occurred in the main process

      @Simon thanks again for reporting the error. I'll see if I can reproduce it. It looks like it's in the Home Assistant integration. Sorry about the trouble.

      EDIT: I see from your screenshot that this.computer_name was null for some reason, so I added code to prevent a crash when that happens. I'll produce a new version soon.
      https://github.com/rvmey/TRIGGERcmd-Agent/commit/b54e988e7d251105bc6faa8c3fa6a5240644cbef

      EDIT2: Done - please upgrade to the current version (v1.0.52) to avoid that error in the future.

    • RE: Opening in a particular Window size

      @Xander, I thought by "shortcut" he was talking about a Windows shortcut like I screenshotted above, not a TRIGGERcmd shortcut. I think he wants to create a TRIGGERcmd command that makes sure the app (maybe Chrome?) launches maximized, starts with a particular zoom % (Chrome can be zoomed).

      Assuming it's Chrome, I have my script launch it maximized, then effectively type CTRL 0, then CTRL + once or twice to adjust the zoom.

      Here's a list of parameters Chrome takes, but none of them are the zoom level, so you'd have to simulate key presses with nircmd or an AutoIT script or similar.

    • RE: Opening in a particular Window size

      @Xander, I'm finding that only some executables, like notepad.exe support starting them maximized, minimized or normal. If make a shortcut (.lnk file) that targets one of those executables, you can specify it in shortcut settings.

      @rdaraujo, yes, it runs the commands locally without the 1 command per minute limit even if you're not subscribed.

    • RE: Opening in a particular Window size

      @JRSF-Home, I asked ChatGPT about #1 because I remembered it's possible to launch an app minimized or maximized with the start command:
      https://chatgpt.com/share/68fcce56-9d20-8004-9046-8a96869e1b9f

      I suggest looking at AutoHotKey or AutoIT to automate the clicks.

    • RE: MacOS - A JavaScript error occurred in the main process

      @Simon, it just happened to me too. I have a bug in the 1.0.50 mac version. Sorry about that. I'm working on it now. Thank you for reporting it.

      EDIT: @Simon, I just posted a new mac version of the agent (1.0.51) that fixes this bug.

      @Simon, did you do anything right before you got this message, like click something, create a new command, or disconnect your Internet? Can you reproduce the error at-will? Any info you have would help me reproduce it so I can easily figure out how to prevent it.

    • RE: TriggerCMDAgent gives Errors when shutting down PC

      @Zaydel-Jiménez, please confirm, you're seeing the "A break point has been reached" error during Windows shutdown? If so, can you get a picture of that error like Furkan did, it might help me. Also, if it happens every time or only once in a while it would also help me to know that.

      I couldn't find the old 1.0.48 version but I don't think it will be any better in terms of that error than the latest version 1.0.50 because it contains the same code I thought would fix it. It's a tricky problem to fix because I can't reproduce it myself.

      FYI, these are the version notes:

    • RE: Java error when installing triggercmd

      @wandersonjvs, thanks for the screenshots. I suspect you have some antivirus software that's preventing the agent from creating the .TRIGGERcmdData folder under your user's home folder.

      You could try creating it manually, or you could try temporarily disabling your antivirus software.

    • Run the MCP server in Docker

      Add an entry like this under mcpServers in claude_desktop_config.json, or mcp.json for VS Code:

              "triggercmd": {
                  "command": "docker",
                  "args": [
                      "run",

    • I used the local TRIGGERcmd stdio mcp server with a local LLM with Ollama and Open WebUI

      ddd1e4a9-b0f0-4077-80ce-b3e66bc283cd-image.png

      I used this bash script to run an MCP/OpenAI proxy server in Ubuntu under WSL:

      #!/bin/bash -xv
      curl -O https://agents.triggercmd.com/triggercmd-mcp/triggercmd-mcp-linux-amd64
      chmod +x triggercmd-mcp-linux-amd64
      
      docker build -t mcp-proxy-server .
      docker run -it -p 8000:8000 -e TRIGGERCMD_TOKEN="my triggercmd token" mcp-proxy-server
      

      This is my Dockerfile:

      FROM python:3.11-slim
      WORKDIR /app
      RUN pip install mcpo uv
      
      COPY triggercmd-mcp-linux-amd64 /triggercmd-mcp-linux-amd64
      
      # Replace with your MCP server command; example: uvx mcp-server-time
      CMD ["uvx", "mcpo", "--host", "0.0.0.0", "--port", "8000", "--api-key", "top-secret", "--", "/triggercmd-mcp-linux-amd64" ]
      

      This is how you set it up in the Settings - External Tools - Manage Tool Servers:

    • How to use the TRIGGERcmd MCP servers

      There are 3 ways to use it:

      • The chat interface built into the web UI. This is mostly for quickly testing the TRIGGERcmd MCP server, but I think people will find it more useful in a Claude Desktop or some tool like that because it can be used in combination with other MCP servers in that context.
      • The local stdio based MCP server for local tools like Claude Desktop or VS Code.
      • The Streamable HTTP MCP Server for online LLM AI tools, like Mistral AI.

      These are the LLM prompts for some of my favorite use-cases:

      • "Use #triggercmd to run calculator on NewLaptop" <- this is a good "hello world" type example.
      • "Play a popular Youtube video on my upstairs Roku" <- this one is fun and practical.
