CC Remote vs Otter Beam

CC Remote is a client application that connects to a user-configured cc-control server, allowing users to monitor and interact with AI coding sessions from their iPhone or iPad. The app connects only to servers that the user owns or operates. All AI agents, coding sessions, and terminal processes run entirely on the server. The app does not control, access, or manage other user devices, and does not provide remote desktop, screen sharing, or device control functionality. Users can view their servers and see active sessions on each server. The app provides a server-side terminal interface, allowing users to create or resume sessions and interact with processes running on the connected server. All commands are executed on the server, not on the iOS device. When server-side AI agents require user confirmation, such as approving or rejecting requests, the app presents these confirmation prompts so users can respond directly. Users configure the server URL and authentication token themselves. The app communicates only with the specified cc-control server and does not connect to any third-party services. A running cc-control server is required. The app supports HTTP and HTTPS connections. Optional TLS verification settings are intended for development or self-hosted environments.
