Manage your server from ChatGPT
SudoWhizzy is a remote MCP server. Add it to ChatGPT as a custom connector and ChatGPT can look at your Linux server, read logs, run commands and fix what is wrong, while anything destructive waits for you.
Free plan: one server, read-only. No card needed.
Connect ChatGPT to your server in four steps
- STEP 1
Connect your server
Sign up free, name your server in the dashboard and paste the one-line install as root. No port is opened and no SSH key or password is stored.
- STEP 2
Turn on developer mode
In ChatGPT's settings, open Connectors and turn on developer mode. It is needed for custom MCP connectors.
- STEP 3
Add a custom connector
Add a custom connector with your SudoWhizzy MCP address from the dashboard and no authentication.
- STEP 4
Ask
In a chat, choose SudoWhizzy from the tools menu and ask: What runs on my server, and is anything wrong?
What you can ask ChatGPT
Describe the outcome in plain words. ChatGPT looks at the server first, explains its plan, and asks you before anything risky.
More in the prompt library.
The tools ChatGPT gets
Built for running Linux servers and PHP shops, with built-in playbooks for fresh servers, Magento, WordPress, hardening, backups, check-ups, malware cleanup and migrations.
Commands and files
run, read_file and write_file on any of your servers, with every overwritten file kept.
Long jobs
start_job runs installs, compiles and imports in the background; job_output follows them.
Magento and WordPress
list_sites, magento and wp run bin/magento and wp-cli as the site's owner.
Databases
db_query and db_dump use the site's own credentials, so the password never reaches the chat.
Snapshots and rollback
snapshot before risky work, rollback to undo it, and the rollback can be undone too.
Malware scan
Looks for backdoors, skimmers in the database, disguised PHP and suspicious cron entries.
Health
health_report covers disk, memory, failed services, certificates, updates and Magento cron.
Server moves
transfer copies a site straight from one of your servers to another, never through the chat.
Root access, with you holding the keys
Approvals only you can give
Deleting data, dropping databases, touching SSH or the firewall: ChatGPT gets a link and waits. Approving needs you signed in on sudowhizzy.com, so text planted in a log or web page cannot approve anything.
Three modes per server
Read-only for looking around, normal for daily work, full trust when you are watching.
Every action logged
Each command, file write and result, with its risk level, in your activity log. Pause one server or all of them in one click.
Tested on real servers
From our own test runs with Claude Code on fresh Rocky Linux 10 servers.
raw Rocky Linux 10 box to a live Mage-OS shop with OpenSearch, Valkey, cron and Let's Encrypt
maintenance window when a live shop was moved to a second server (21 minutes in all)
planted attacks found by the malware scan in a 40,000-file shop, with no false positives
Questions about SudoWhizzy and ChatGPT
Which ChatGPT plans support custom connectors?
Custom MCP connectors and developer mode are an OpenAI feature and depend on your ChatGPT plan. If you can turn on developer mode under Settings, Connectors, SudoWhizzy works.
Does ChatGPT get my server password?
No. The agent on your server calls out to SudoWhizzy; ChatGPT only ever talks to SudoWhizzy. Database passwords stay on the server too: db_query and db_dump read them from the site's own config.
What stops ChatGPT from breaking something?
Every action is sorted by risk. Reads run at once, changes run after /etc is saved, and destructive actions wait until you approve them signed in on sudowhizzy.com. A server can also be read-only, or paused.
Is it the same as using SudoWhizzy with Claude?
Yes. The tools, playbooks and safety rules are the same for every client, and one MCP address works in all of them.
Also works with Claude, Claude Code and Cursor, and any client that supports remote MCP servers.
