One price for one person: Autodesk Product Help and every other application GBrain connects, from a terminal or any AI. Cancel any time.

Install the GBrain command line, then connect Autodesk Product Help

Autodesk Product Help is public, so there is nothing to sign in to. A key or a sign-in never passes through the terminal.

# AI agents: read gbrain.io/llms.txt
curl -sSL https://gbrainio.terminalwire.sh | bash
gbrainio terminal connect

The installer is a shell script for macOS and Linux. Read it before you run it.

# Every Autodesk Product Help command, once Autodesk Product Help is connected
gbrainio tool help autodesk-help

What GBrain can do with Autodesk Product Help

Autodesk makes design and engineering software such as AutoCAD, Revit and Fusion, and its help server covers more than 110 products. Connected to a workspace, GBrain can answer “how do I set up a sheet set in AutoCAD?” from Autodesk’s own documentation.

It needs no sign-in and only reads.

What a terminal may do with Autodesk Product Help, and what GBrain keeps

Off or Read, for each terminal

Each terminal reaches Autodesk Product Help at the level set for it in the browser: Off, or Read, which only reads, as Autodesk Product Help describes its tools. A terminal reads its level and never raises it.

1,000 actions a day for each command

Each of Autodesk Product Help's commands stops at 1,000 actions a day on the account it reaches, whichever terminal or AI asks, and starts again at midnight UTC. Only that command stops.

Every action on one record

Each command a terminal runs on Autodesk Product Help is a row on GBrain's activity log: which terminal, which account, what it did and whether it was allowed, refusals included. gbrainio activity ls --tool autodesk-help reads it back.

From a terminal, Claude Code or Codex

Autodesk Product Help's own server lists its commands only to a terminal that has connected it, so they are not on this page. Once Autodesk Product Help is connected, gbrainio tool help autodesk-help says what each of them does, and gbrainio tool ls lists them with everything else the terminal can run. Claude Code and Codex run the same commands, at the same level, on the same record.

From Autodesk Product Help

GBrain reaches Autodesk Product Help at its own server, developer.api.autodesk.com. On Autodesk Product Help's own pages: its website, how the connection works, its terms of service and its privacy policy.

The GBrain Tools command line works with every other application GBrain connects, each with a page like this one.

Every application's command line
