# Tools

Explore the Tools tab in Remote Desktop Manager, featuring password, certificate, and port generators, network scan, script dashboard, and SSH key tools.

***

The ***Tools*** tab brings together a set of generators, managers, and utilities that support day-to-day administration and automation tasks without leaving Remote Desktop Manager. You can generate strong [passwords](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/password-generator.md), [self-signed certificates](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/certificate-generator.md), and [available ports](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/port-generator.md) for your connections, or run a [network scan](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/network-scan.md) across a defined IP range to discover and import sessions, including through Devolutions Gateway.

For automation, the [Script dashboard](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/script-dashboard.md) centralizes scripts that are not tied to a specific entry, while [PowerShell (RDM CmdLet)](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/powershell-rdm-cmdlet.md) opens an embedded shell for scripting against the application directly via its cmdlet snap-in. SSH key handling is covered by the [SSH key agent](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/ssh-key-agent.md), which keeps decoded keys in memory for use across SSH sessions without re-entering them each time.

The [Extensions manager](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/extensions-manager.md) lets you install and activate optional modules only as needed, keeping the base install lean. Beyond this curated set, [All tools](/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools/all-tools.md) exposes a much larger catalog of system administration, terminal, remote access, network diagnostic, security, and package-manager utilities, organized into pinnable categories for quick access.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.devolutions.net/rdm/ribbon-menu-bar/tools.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
