SentinelX lets you manage your Linux, macOS, and Windows servers from ChatGPT — no SSH required. Install a small open-source agent on any Linux, macOS, or Windows host, and ChatGPT can run inspection commands, manage services (systemd, launchd, or Windows services), read/search/edit files, run scripts, upload files, and call out to integrations like Cloudflare DNS, Resend, and Telegram.
Every action is constrained by a per-host allowlist that you control. The agent only runs commands and services you've explicitly declared safe, rejects anything outside the policy at the agent boundary, and your OS's file permissions still apply on top. You can connect multiple hosts and label them however you want.
Typical uses: check uptime and disk space, restart services, tail logs, edit config files, run quick scripts, manage DNS records, send notifications. The agent is open source on GitHub (github.com/pensados/sentinelx-cloud-core). Authentication uses OAuth 2.0 with PKCE and Dynamic Client Registration, scoped per user.

Things to ask
- “List all my SentinelX hosts and show each one's uptime and free disk and RAM.”
