Remote Control

Remote Control lets other programs drive Xedant Agent for you — no browser needed. There are two ways: an HTTP API (a standard way for programs to talk to each other) — creating chats, sending prompts, managing the queue, and live SignalR events (real-time updates pushed to your program); and a file queue through Yandex.Disk (AgentRemote) — exchanging files that carry tasks and transcripts. The HTTP side has a page of its own, API: authentication with a key, every /api/remote command, the prompt queue, the bot list, the wider set of endpoints the same key unlocks, and live event updates. This page covers the file-based way through Yandex.Disk.

Remote Control through Yandex.Disk (AgentRemote)

Xedant Agent can work as a “file queue” through Yandex.Disk: drop a file with a task into the folder — the agent creates a chat, does the work, and puts the finished transcript back. You can steer the agent from any device that has Yandex.Disk, with no web interface and no SSH. A separate desktop app, AgentRemote (Windows), is built on the same mechanics: it watches the folder on Disk and shows chats and messages in a friendly interface.

How it works

1. Turn the feature on: set the AGENT_YANDEX_DISK_TOKEN environment variable (your Disk OAuth token) — a background monitor starts by itself and begins watching the folder.
2. Drop a .txt file with a task into the folder root — it joins the queue and is processed in order. A numeric prefix in the file name (for example, 01-fix-auth.txt) sets that order. Each prompt gets its own chat.
3. For follow-up messages, drop a .txt file inside the chat’s own folder (a subfolder named after the chat number) — it runs next in that chat.
4. Transcripts are saved back to Disk as .md files, one next to each prompt. Autofix runs are logged the same way, as autofix-*.txt/.md files.

Environment variables

• AGENT_YANDEX_DISK_TOKEN — your Yandex.Disk OAuth token; setting it turns the feature on;
• AGENT_YANDEX_DISK_FOLDER — the root folder of the queue (defaults to app:/Yandex.Disk);
• AGENT_YANDEX_DISK_POLL_INTERVAL — how often to check for new files, in seconds (defaults to 10).

For programmatic access to chats, prompts, and the queue over HTTP, see the API page.
