Code from your phone. Connect to your server. On the road, on the train, or putting out a fire — no laptop needed. Tell ZyCin what you want in plain language. It connects to your server over SSH, reads the code, edits it, runs commands and tests, and gets the job done. CORE FEATURES · Conversation as development Describe a task in one sentence. The agent runs the full loop — read files → analyze → edit → verify — with every tool call and code change visible in real time. · Direct SSH to your server Password or private key login. Works with Linux, macOS and Windows (PowerShell). Your code stays on your server — never routed through us. · Multi-protocol file manager Browse and edit over SSH / SFTP / FTP / FTPS / WebDAV, with an icon grid, syntax highlighting and in-place saving. · Switch models freely 175+ built-in provider presets (OpenAI, DeepSeek, Anthropic, Gemini, Kimi and more). Switch models mid-conversation. · Scan for local LLMs Auto-discover Ollama / LM Studio / llama.cpp / vLLM on your LAN — free, offline, and your data never leaves the network. · Image and voice input Send a screenshot so the AI can see the error or the UI. Hold to talk and assign tasks by voice. · MCP extensions Connect MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers to give the agent databases, APIs, Kubernetes and more. · Secure by design Passwords, keys and API keys are stored only in the device secure storage. Writes and command execution ask for confirmation by default, with dangerous commands highlighted. Host fingerprints are pinned on first connect and flagged if they change. WHO IT IS FOR · DevOps and backend engineers who must react to production issues anywhere · Developers who review code and fix bugs on the commute · Indie developers and remote teams NOTES · Bring your own model API key, or use a local model on your LAN. Connecting to a server requires you to have the appropriate access. · New users get a 30-day free trial; afterwards the free tier allows 40 messages per day.
