Quick start and architecture

The beta runs where the tester works.

Beta 0.1 is downloadable local software with one working Sandbox path. It is not a hosted generation API and does not enable real provider connections.

01

Local runtime

The tester downloads one JavaScript file and runs it with Node.js 20 or newer on a device they control.

02

Local session

The beta binds only to 127.0.0.1 and protects local API actions with a random session token.

03

Sandbox task

The included Sandbox simulates a completed job without accepting a key, calling a provider, or producing AI output.

04

Local record and export

A minimal task record stays in local JSONL. The tester deliberately exports a CSV when they choose.

Run it

Two local commands.

Install Node.js 20 or newer, download the connector, and run these commands from the download folder.

node itcaocao-connector-beta.mjs --doctor
node itcaocao-connector-beta.mjs
