## What is AgentShell?

AgentShell is an SSH client for developers who run AI coding tools like Claude Code and Gemini CLI on remote servers.

The problem it solves

You're running Claude on a dev server. It needs a yes/no answer. Your phone is in your pocket. Without notifications, you'd have no idea it's waiting.

AgentShell watches your terminal for input prompts and notifies you. Works whether the app is open, backgrounded, or your phone is locked.

AI agent support

• Auto-launch Claude, Gemini, Cursor, Codex, or your own tools on connect
• Detects when agents need confirmation or input
• Push notifications show the actual question being asked
• Banners when you're in another session
• Per-connection working directories

Lock Screen and Dynamic Island

• Session status visible without unlocking
• See "Working", "Waiting for input", or "Ready" at a glance
• Tap to jump straight into the session

Multiple sessions

• Up to 10 sessions at once
• Grid view with terminal previews
• Sessions stay alive when you switch apps
• Auto-reconnect on dropped connections
• GNU Screen support

Terminal

• 256 colors, multiple themes
• Extra keyboard row: Ctrl, Esc, Tab, arrows
• Voice input
• Copy/paste

Security

• Keys in iOS Keychain with hardware encryption
• Face ID / Touch ID to access keys

• Keys stay on device
• Secure password storage

Connections

• Unlimited saved profiles
• Quick connect to recent servers
