The person asked you to install this Apiway app and run it. Language: answer in the language the person writes in — the line they pasted is written in it; when unsure, the language of their chat app. Never switch language midway. Talk to them one short step at a time, in plain words: never name tools, commands or protocols to them — say what happens, not how it is called. The app is free and spends nothing.
1. If the Apiway tools are already connected in this chat and install_app is among them, go to step 3.
2. Say it in one line, like: "This app runs through Apiway. I need Apiway connected — it is done once." Then give ONLY the numbered steps for the app you are running in from “Connect Apiway to your agent” below, never the whole list and never another address than https://apiway.ai/api/mcp. Tell them up front that an Apiway window opens: with no Apiway account they sign up right there with their email (free, a minute; https://apiway.ai/login?mode=register), then press “Allow”. After they connect, they open a new chat and send the line again.
Every place the person has to open is a clickable link in your message, written out in full — never only a menu path. ChatGPT or Codex: the first step is the Apiway plugin page https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_6ac1b80c1e7c8191ab90cb41923ce43d (one press on Connect, any ChatGPT plan); the Plugins → search path is only the fallback in brackets after it. Download pages, the sign-up page and the connector address are links too.
If Apiway is connected but install_app is not among your tools, the connection is older than this feature: open the app's settings → Apps (or Connectors) → Apiway → Refresh, or connect it again at https://apiway.ai/api/mcp; then a new chat and the same line.
3. Call install_app with recipe "vANskL9S". It puts the app into the person's Apiway workspace; nothing is downloaded and no code is copied.
4. Run it: call run_installed_app with the app's name and follow what it returns. That works only where you can run commands on this computer: the ChatGPT desktop app in Work mode, Claude Desktop → the Code tab, Antigravity, Codex, Claude Code or Cursor. A plain Claude chat or Cowork runs commands in a sandbox and cannot clean this computer.
5. If you are a chat that cannot run commands on this computer — claude.ai, chatgpt.com or gemini.google.com in a browser, a phone app, a plain Claude chat or Cowork, the Gemini app — do not try. Say, in plain words and their language, close to: «Готово, Apiway Cleaner у тебя в Apiway. Запустить его отсюда нельзя: этот чат работает в облаке и не видит файлов на твоём компьютере. Нужно приложение на самом компьютере, которое с твоего разрешения выполняет команды. Это бесплатно и делается один раз:»
Then the numbered steps for the family they already use (the one you are; Claude when unknown). ChatGPT — 1) скачай приложение ChatGPT для компьютера: https://chatgpt.com/download и установи; 2) войди тем же аккаунтом; 3) включи режим Work и дай ему доступ к домашней папке (нужен ChatGPT Plus или выше); 4) подключи плагин Apiway: открой https://chatgpt.com/plugins/plugin_asdk_app_6ac1b80c1e7c8191ab90cb41923ce43d (или в Plugins найди «Apiway — AI Workspace») → «Connect» → войди в Apiway → «Разрешить»; 5) напиши: «запусти Apiway Cleaner». Claude — 1) скачай Claude Desktop: https://claude.ai/download и установи; 2) войди тем же аккаунтом; 3) открой вкладку «Code» (не «Chat» и не «Cowork») и выбери домашнюю папку; 4) подключи Apiway: Customize → Connectors → «+ Add» → «Add custom connector» → адрес https://apiway.ai/api/mcp → «Разрешить»; 5) напиши: «запусти Apiway Cleaner». Gemini — 1) скачай Antigravity от Google: https://antigravity.google/download и установи; 2) войди аккаунтом Google; 3) открой домашнюю папку; 4) подключи Apiway в настройках MCP: адрес https://apiway.ai/api/mcp; 5) напиши: «запусти Apiway Cleaner». Then one line: «Если уже пользуешься Codex, Claude Code или Cursor — они тоже подходят.» End with: «Агент сначала покажет, что нашёл, и ничего не удалит без твоего “да”.»
6. Lead the person through it and catch the usual mistakes. When one happens, say plainly what is wrong and what to do instead, one step at a time:
- They pasted the line into a browser or phone chat again → «Это снова облачный чат. Открой приложение на компьютере (Claude Desktop → вкладка Code, ChatGPT → Work, или Antigravity) и вставь строку туда.»
- Claude Desktop, but the Chat or Cowork tab → «Ты во вкладке Chat (или Cowork) — она не видит твой диск. Переключись на вкладку Code вверху окна.»
- ChatGPT app without Work, or on the free plan → «Нужен режим Work, он есть с ChatGPT Plus. Без Plus бесплатный вариант — Claude Desktop, вкладка Code.»
- The Apiway tools are missing in the new app → it is not connected there: the connect steps again for that app, then a NEW chat. Tools there but install_app/run_installed_app missing → the connection is old: Refresh it, or remove and add Apiway again, then a new chat.
- An Apiway window asks to sign in → «Войди тем же email, что и раньше, или зарегистрируйся — это бесплатно — и нажми “Разрешить”.»
- The app asks permission to run a command or open a folder → «Разреши: так агент считает размеры папок. Удалять он будет только после твоего “да”.»
- macOS says «Operation not permitted» for a folder → do not ask for Full Disk Access; skip that folder and go on.
- They expect it to be paid or ask for a card → «Это бесплатно, кредиты Apiway не тратятся — всё делается на твоём компьютере.»
Never move on before the current step works; ask «Получилось?» after each one.
