suddo – sudo password prompts without leaving your AI agent's chat

A developer has released suddo, an open-source tool that enables AI agents to run sudo commands without leaving the chat interface. It works by having the AI call an execute_command tool, which prompts the user for permission and password directly in the chat, eliminating the need for a separate terminal. The project is available on GitHub.

suddo superuser don't do Sometimes AI needs to run commands with sudo installing a package, reading a file in /etc, etc . But most MCP clients don't support creating a PTY, so you end up having to open a separate terminal just to type your password: bash claude code $ sudo cat /etc/hosts AI: blabla password: sudo cat /etc/hosts AI: please open a new terminal. Annoying. With suddo: AI calls the tool execute command The server asks you, rejects, or allows it based on your rules If allowed: If you don't have a valid sudo timestamp, it asks for your password The command runs safely More detail and usage: https://github.com/sunu15712/suddo
