Your AI coding agents keep working after you leave your desk. With BotBus, so can you: approve requests, answer questions, send the next instruction, or take over the computer itself, from iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch. BotBus connects Claude Code, Codex and other coding agents on your Mac, Linux or Windows computer to your phone and watch. No SSH, no VPN, no port forwarding, no account. Install BotBus on the computer, scan one QR code, and you're set. Tasks and computer controls are end-to-end encrypted. Made for long refactors, test runs and vibe coding sessions that need a quick yes every few minutes. WORKS WITH THE AGENTS YOU ALREADY USE • Built in: Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Hermes, Pi, OpenClaw and DeepSeek Harness • Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Kimi CLI, goose and other ACP (Agent Client Protocol) agents • Sessions you started at your desk show up too, sorted by computer, agent and project • Agents keep their own logins, subscriptions and API keys NEVER LEAVE AN AGENT WAITING • Get notified when an agent needs approval, waits for your reply, finishes or fails; on iPhone you see the actual command • Approve or deny in one tap and answer multiple-choice questions • Auto-approve projects you trust (Claude Code and Codex); questions still come to you • When a task fails, BotBus tells you why and what to do next RUN THE WORK FROM ANYWHERE • Start a chat: pick a computer, agent and project, then type or just speak • Follow up, interrupt, or start, stop and restart an agent • Choose the model and reasoning effort for Claude Code and Codex • Run a task in its own git worktree, then merge it back in one tap • Attach photos; location data is stripped before sending • Read the conversation with formatting, code and images SEE WHAT YOUR AGENTS BUILT • Screenshots, files, videos and links come straight to your phone • Open the dev server your agent just started and try the page on your phone (Mac) • Review uncommitted changes as a line-by-line diff before you merge CONTROL YOUR COMPUTER • Files: browse projects, view and edit text files, upload photos, share files to your phone, rename, or move to Trash (never permanently deleted) • Terminal: a real shell on your computer, with tabs, extra keys (esc, ctrl, tab, arrows) and sessions that survive dropped connections • Screen: see your Mac live; tap, drag, zoom, right-click and type, with a secure field for passwords • Changes stay locked until you unlock them and re-lock after 10 idle minutes • Files and terminal on Mac, Linux and Windows; screen control on Mac BUILT FOR APPLE WATCH • After syncing from iPhone, the watch connects on its own • Approve, answer, dictate a reply, interrupt or start a task from your wrist • See every computer's pending count at a glance MANY COMPUTERS, MANY DEVICES • Pair up to 10 computers with up to 10 phones and iPads; mix Mac, Linux and Windows • Two-column layout on iPad • Remove any device at any time PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Tasks, chats, commands, files, terminal and screen are encrypted with AES-256-GCM on your devices • The key travels only in the pairing QR code and stays in your Keychain; compare the 8-digit fingerprint to verify • Our relay sees only ciphertext; pairings idle for 30 days are erased • Dev previews pass through our relay and are not end-to-end encrypted GET STARTED IN A MINUTE 1. Install BotBus on your computer from botbus.io: a menu bar app on Mac, a one-line install on Linux and Windows (no sudo or admin rights) 2. Scan the pairing QR code with this app 3. Walk away.
