## What is RemoteX?

RemoteX is a local-first AI workspace for infrastructure operations.

Connect SSH Servers, Kubernetes clusters, and Databases, then interact with them in plain English.

Ask:

• "why is production slow?"
• "show failing pods"
• "what changed recently?"
• "explain this Postgres query"
• "check disk usage across all servers"

RemoteX can inspect infrastructure, read logs, query databases, analyze files, and propose actions — while keeping you in control through approval-based execution and Face ID protection.

There is no RemoteX backend between you and your infrastructure.

Conversations, servers, and chat history sync end-to-end encrypted across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac through your own iCloud. Apple sees nothing but a blob — only your devices hold the key.

WHAT YOU CAN CONNECT
• SSH servers
• Kubernetes clusters via kubeconfig
• PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and Redis
• Private infrastructure through SSH bastions/tunnels

WHAT IT DOES
• Diagnose infrastructure in plain English
• Chat with multiple servers and environments at once
• Read pod logs and inspect Kubernetes resources
• Run read-only database queries with safety limits
• Explain SQL queries and query plans
• Browse and manage remote files
• Attach PDFs, spreadsheets, logs, code, JSON, YAML, and documents directly into AI chat
• Generate summaries and operational insights instead of walls of terminal output
• One-tap operational recipes and reusable playbooks
• Background monitoring with notifications
• Full-text conversation search
• Voice input support
• Multiple chats per environment or project
• Continue conversations across iPhone, iPad, and Mac — pick up on your phone what you started on your Mac

SAFETY & CONTROL
• Every state-changing action requires approval
• Face ID / Touch ID protection for sensitive operations
• Clear target routing when actions go through bastion hosts
• SSH host-key pinning with algorithm validation
• Read-only query protections for databases
• Row caps and timeout limits for AI-generated queries

ACROSS YOUR DEVICES
• End-to-end encrypted sync between iPhone, iPad, and Mac via your own iCloud
• A passphrase you set is the key — Apple and RemoteX cannot decrypt your data
• No central server, no account — sync runs entirely between your devices
• Open a chat on iPhone, continue on Mac; add a server on Mac, see it on iPhone

LOCAL-FIRST SECURITY
• SSH credentials, API keys, kubeconfigs, and database credentials stay on your device
• No RemoteX-managed infrastructure proxy
• Optional iCloud sync is end-to-end encrypted with a passphrase only you know — your data is unreadable to Apple, RemoteX, and anyone in between
• Bring your own AI provider:

• Anthropic
• OpenAI
• Google Gemini
• Commands and infrastructure context are sent directly to the AI provider you choose
• Optional crash reporting via Sentry (disabled by default)

BUILT FOR
• DevOps engineers
• Platform teams
• Solo founders running infrastructure
• SREs and on-call engineers
• Developers managing production systems

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.10 — 2026-07-05

New in RemoteX 1.2.10:
- Added a mobile SSH Shell screen with one-off commands, saved command receipts, recent command history, and an optional interactive terminal.
- Improved approval, activity, and command output flows so read-only work stays cleaner and write actions produce clearer receipts.
- Added mobile skill improvements, including imported skill support and removing imported skills.
- Improved review/diff handling for changed files.
- Fixed stale waiting states, chat scroll behavior, shell lifecycle issues, and several mobile stability/polish problems.

### 1.2.8 — 2026-06-06

This update makes iCloud sync rock-solid, especially on large workspaces:

• Sync no longer freezes the app or makes your phone run hot — your devices stay in sync without re-doing work in the background.
• Sync stays out of your way: it pauses while the agent is working, and the "Syncing with iCloud" notice now only appears for the first-time import on a new device, not every routine sync.
• Faster reconnect to your synced workspace after reopening the app.

Also fixed:
• The model and reasoning-effort controls in the chat box now wrap to two lines, so every label is readable on narrower phones.
• Changing the reasoning-effort level updates instantly.
• A new chat shows its auto-generated name right away in the server list.
• "Erase all local data" now fully clears everything.

### 1.2.7 — 2026-05-30

Faster, quieter sync.

• iCloud sync no longer blocks the app on launch or when returning from the background
• Opening a chat or server now pulls the latest from your Mac instantly
• Large syncs merge in the background without freezing the UI
• Fixed a crash when expanding command outputs right after a sync
• Per-screen reload — only the screen you're looking at refreshes

### 1.2.6 — 2026-05-26

What's New

Kubernetes & Databases
• Add Kubernetes clusters via kubeconfig — list resources, read pod logs, propose kubectl actions through the same Face-ID approval card SSH uses.
• Add Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, and Redis as connections. List schemas, sample rows, run read-only queries, EXPLAIN — all with row and timeout caps.
• Reach private clusters or databases through a saved SSH server as a bastion. RemoteX opens the tunnel, rewrites the kubeconfig server URL, and overrides TLS SNI so client certs still verify.

File Attachments
• Attach PDF, Excel, Word, PowerPoint, CSV, JSON, YAML, logs, or code straight into chat. Each file shows as a labelled chip; the model reads the contents alongside your question.
• Tap a file in the remote tree to send it to chat or save to the Files app.

Smarter Agent
• When a database lives on the same host as your SSH server, the agent knows they're related — shell questions go to the host, queries go to the database.
• Approval cards show "Target · via bastion" when the action will pass through a tunnel, so it's unambiguous which physical machine the command touches.
• System prompt no longer leaks internal headers when asked vague questions like "what is this?"

Less Friction
• AI provider keys no longer prompt Face ID on every message. App-lock + the per-mutation biometric are enough.
• Home screen has a proper Settings gear icon (top-right).
• Remote file tree opens folders on the first tap, not the second.
• Kubeconfigs that use client certificates, exec credentials, token files, or auth providers now parse correctly.
• Cold start no longer keeps connections locked until you pull-to-refresh.
• Keyboard gap when typing is gone.
• Read-only badge is green on both light and dark mode (was blue on light).

Encrypted Backups
• .rxbackup files round-trip database connections and credentials across Mac and mobile alongside SSH and Kubernetes.
• Restoring a backup no longer re-introduces per-message Face ID on the imported AI keys.

Connection Pinning
• SSH host-key pins now lock the key algorithm. A swapped server-key algorithm is treated as a host change instead of silently accepted.

### 1.2.4 — 2026-05-22

New Pro & trusted-device support:
• Improved Pro status, pairing, and restore flows
• Privacy-friendly license checks and anonymous app health stats
