## What is Codetether?

Codetether puts the opencode AI coding agent in your pocket. Run opencode on your computer, then follow the work from your phone: watch replies stream in, approve permissions, review diffs and send the next instruction from anywhere.

Your code never leaves your machine. The app connects to your own opencode server — over your local network, Tailscale or an end-to-end encrypted relay — and no account is needed.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Follow sessions live: streaming replies, reasoning and tool calls
• Approve or reject permissions from your phone, the lock screen or Apple Watch
• Answer the agent's questions without leaving the app
• Review every diff the agent produced, file by file, and revert changes
• See what each session costs: usage by day, project and model
• Live Activities and the Dynamic Island show every session at a glance
• Browse and read your project files
• Compose with @ files, / commands, ! shell and photo attachments
• Keep several servers (LAN, Tailscale, relay) with automatic reconnect
• Available in 33 languages

SETUP
On your computer, run: npx ocremote --pair
