AgentBridge is a tool that lets modern AI agents like Claude control vintage Mac OS (versions 7-9). It runs as an application within classic Mac OS, communicating via text files in a shared folder — the AI writes commands to an 'inbox', AgentBridge executes them using the Mac Toolbox, and results are written to an 'outbox'. The shared folder can be set up via network share, emulation environment, or other methods. While practical use cases are limited, it's a creative hack bridging 1980s GUI computing with modern AI agents.
