Build your own integrations with the SDK

Use the TypeScript and Python libraries to send files, text and links through the app on your computer, from your own scripts.

The SDKs talk to the Personal Device Bridge agent running on the same computer over a private, owner-only channel. Your scripts can list devices, send files, clipboard text and links, and react to events.

Steps

  1. Get the SDK

    TypeScript (@personaldevicebridge/sdk) and Python (personaldevicebridge) aren’t published on npm or PyPI yet. Email projectteamforyou@gmail.com and we’ll send the packages and the API reference.

  2. Run the agent

    The desktop app runs it, or start it with pdb agent. Use pdb agent install to start it at sign-in.

  3. Connect and send

    Your script connects to the local agent and calls the same actions the app uses, for example sending a file to a paired device.

Security

Only your own user account can reach the agent: the channel is protected by the operating system and a token. Devices and permissions stay exactly as you set them in the app.
