## What is Skippr?

Run Claude Code, Codex, and any terminal AI agent from your iPhone or iPad. Skippr is a fast SSH + mosh terminal built for coding on the go — start an agent on your server, close the app, and pick the session back up exactly where you left it.

BUILT FOR AI-ASSISTED CODING
• Guided setup: Skippr generates a setup prompt your agent runs on the host — connected in minutes
• Push notifications when your agent needs input or finishes a task
• Sessions survive app switches, sleep, and network changes thanks to mosh
• Tabs auto-rename to match what's running, just like your desktop terminal

A REAL TERMINAL, NOT A TOY
• Full-featured terminal with true color, mouse support, and search (Cmd+F)
• Smooth touch scrolling in TUIs, text selection, and tappable links
• Works with tmux, vim, htop, and every CLI tool you already use
• External keyboard shortcuts for iPad workflows

MORE THAN A TERMINAL
• Built-in file browser and code editor with syntax highlighting
• Git diff viewer for reviewing your agent's changes before you commit
• Image and video preview right from the file tree
• Automatic port forwarding: type localhost:3000 and preview your dev server

CONNECT YOUR WAY
• Plain SSH or mosh — every feature works on both
• Password or key auth, multiple hosts, instant reconnect
• Works great over Tailscale and other VPNs

No account. No cloud relay. Your connection goes straight from your device to your server.
