Devices
A Device connects Verset to a computer you choose. After it is connected, permitted AI work can use that computer’s files, terminal, and browser. Internally, this connection is called a Probe.
Connect a device
- In Verset, open Devices and create a pairing code.
- On the computer you want to connect, open Terminal on macOS or a terminal on Linux.
- Copy and run the command shown in Verset. It installs nvm when needed, installs the supported Node.js version, and starts the Verset Probe.
- Keep that terminal running while you want the device online.
The pairing code is single-use and expires automatically. The copied command already includes it. Create a new code in Verset if it expires or the command fails.
Install with an agent
The setup guide can also create a one-use instruction for an agent already working on the target computer. It contains the same expiring pairing code. Give it only to that agent and do not put sign-in credentials into chat; enter them directly in the terminal if prompted.
Availability and access
A device is available only while its Probe is running and connected. Closing its terminal takes it offline. Connecting a device does not bypass workspace permissions: AI can use only the tools and resources that its configured role is allowed to access.
Supported computers
The active installer is the @verset/probe-cli npm package. It is intended for macOS and Linux. Platform support is confirmed only after clean installation and probe startup have passed for the relevant Node.js, operating-system, and processor combination.
Windows and the signed desktop installer are not currently supported installation paths.
Keep this guide accurate
This page is the product reference for the Device setup guide. When changing the installer, pairing behavior, supported platforms, or security guidance, update this page and the setup guide together. The release package documentation records the exact package/runtime implementation details.
