The FTP proxy is a small local gateway SyncNow runs on your PC so an AI assistant can work on your project without ever touching your real FTP server or password.
It is sometimes called the agent bridge. When an assistant has a Grant, it sends its read and write requests to this proxy on 127.0.0.1 (your own machine) using a one-time password. The proxy passes the request to SyncNow's cloud executor, which holds your real credentials in the vault and performs the actual FTP operation.
Why it exists
It keeps your secrets out of the assistant's hands, records every action on the shared timeline, and lets SyncNow apply its safety guards. The assistant never gets a direct line to your host - the proxy is the only door, and SyncNow controls it.
