Keep coding agents moving when you leave your desk. Moshline is a native iPhone and iPad control surface for coding agents running on Macs and Linux hosts you control. It combines a fleet inbox for sessions and approvals with a real SSH/Mosh terminal for full context and recovery. CONTROL WORK IN PROGRESS • See captured approval requests and completion events across paired hosts. • Review available prompts, command context, decisions, and status updates. • Open the paired host terminal when an event needs more context. MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS • Review the requested command, working directory, risk, and policy details when available. • Approve or deny supported actions without returning to your desk. • Receive focused notifications when a supported agent needs attention. USE THE REAL TERMINAL • Connect over SSH or Mosh to the shell you already use. • Recover through network changes and temporary disconnects. • Use mobile keys and tmux-oriented shortcuts for terminal work. YOUR HOSTS, YOUR TOOLS • Pair your own Mac or Linux machine by QR code. • Keep the repository, model credentials, shell, and agent runtime on your host. • Protect generated SSH keys with Secure Enclave and device biometrics. • Keep host pairing, approvals, and terminal access together in one app. Moshline works with the Moshline host helper and supported CLI coding agents. It does not host AI models or replace your agent subscription. Host setup, a network connection, and separately installed command-line tools are required. Availability of structured approvals, captured events, and notifications depends on the connected runtime and host helper configuration.

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: ssh Chat at freemium against Moshline's paid. ssh Chat also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.2). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
