This page is also a working example of the integration: it broadcasts an open request over SignalR, and the CAUSEWAY agent on your desktop opens File Explorer — but only for the matching pairing code, so nobody else's desktop reacts.

1 Download & run the installer

Run the installer — it installs per-user (no admin) and launches automatically in Test Mode, showing a 6-character pairing code.

Windows 10/11 · self-contained (no .NET install needed) · auto-updates · connects to this site's demo hub.
Not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen will warn — choose More info → Run anyway.

2 Pair this page with your agent

Connecting to demo hub…

3 Open it on your desktop

Click below — File Explorer should jump to the front on the machine running your agent.

How it works: this page calls SendOpen(path, code) on the hub, which broadcasts ReceiveMessage(path, code) to every connected agent. Each agent acts only if the code matches the one it's showing. In your own product you'd broadcast your real user id instead of a pairing code.
