As long as the VPN is active, Proxyman iOS can capture all traffic over Wi-Fi and cellular Data. ### How about my sensitive data? - Proxyman Root Certificate is a self-signed certificate that is generated on your local machine.

About

Tatu Code

Features
Read full description

Tatu is a coding agent that lives in your terminal. This app is its remote: follow every session from your phone, answer when it asks, and review what it changed. TATU MUST BE INSTALLED ON YOUR COMPUTER This app does not run code by itself. Install Tatu on your computer or server, connect it to the app by scanning a QR code, and your sessions show up here. EVERY SESSION, EVERY MACHINE One list with all the computers you paired and their live sessions. At a glance you see which ones are working, which are waiting for you and which have finished. ANSWER WHEN IT ASKS When the agent needs a decision, you get a push notification. Open it, pick an option or answer in your own words, and the agent carries on. A finished run or an error arrives the same way. WATCH IT WORK Follow the conversation as it happens: the agent's messages, its tool calls and the plan it is working through, step by step. REVIEW THE CHANGES See what changed in your project: the files, and the diff of each one, right from the chat. SEND IT WORK Type a message, attach a photo, dictate with the microphone, or queue several messages while it works. Switch the model and how hard it thinks without leaving the chat. When Tatu's daemon runs on your computer, you can also start a new session in one of your projects, even in its own git worktree. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Pairing is by QR code, and you can remove a computer from the app at any time. The relay that connects the app to your machine never reads what a session says. MORE • Background tasks: check their output and stop them • Context and usage of your accounts • Light and dark themes • Resume or branch from an earlier message Tatu is curious, persistent and careful. Now it fits in your pocket.
