ServerCC lets you run real Claude Code or Codex on your phone via SSH, with the same experience as on desktop. Persistent connections keep your tasks running even after you close the app, and you can resume them anytime. Built for mobile, with smoother text input and interaction than terminal apps. While tasks are running, you can view your coding results in real time via VNC. No server yet? Claim a free sandbox trial right in the app — a temporary cloud Linux server with Claude Code, Codex, and Pi preinstalled and a sample project ready — and try the full workflow before adding your own server. Key Features: - The same UI and interactions as desktop Claude Code and Codex — not a chat wrapper - Multi-agent support: run Grok Build, OpenCode, Kimi Code, Pi, and OMP alongside Claude Code and Codex - Claude Code/Codex session management (start, auto-reconnect, and resume) - Tmux-based persistent sessions that keep Claude Code/Codex running even after closing the app — or attach directly to Tmux sessions already running on your host - herdr integration: servers running herdr show their spaces in the app — attach to running agent sessions, start new agents inside herdr, or adopt a space as a workspace - Claude Code bg sessions: launch agents in bg mode, close the app, attach from anywhere later — they keep working on your server - Workspace worktree support for developing multiple features simultaneously, with parallel Claude Code/Codex execution - VNC Remote Desktop: view your coding results in real time while Claude Code/Codex works — connect to macOS Screen Sharing or any VNC server - Ports: open web apps running on your dev server straight from your phone - Workspace file browsing and upload, plus management of global and workspace-level Skills and MCP Privacy Policy: https://servercc.app/privacy Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ ServerCC is an independent app for running AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build, OpenCode, Kimi Code, Pi, OMP) over SSH.

Zode is the phone companion for ZCode, the AI coding app. Start a task in ZCode on your Mac, then keep an eye on it from the couch, the kitchen, or the train. WHAT YOU CAN DO • See what needs you. Sessions waiting for your answer sit at the top. Running ones come next. Finished ones are grouped by day. • Read the work like a document. Text, code and tables look clean, and tool steps fold into one quiet line. • Reply, stop, or start. Answer a question, stop a task that went the wrong way, or start a new one in the folder you choose. • Catch up after a bad connection. Zode shows what you missed. • Light and dark look that follow your phone. HOW IT CONNECTS Zode is a companion, so ZCode keeps running on your Mac. A small free relay on the same Mac passes messages between your phone and ZCode: Phone -> Zode relay on your Mac -> ZCode Install the relay with one command, then pair once by scanning a QR code. At home Zode uses your Wi-Fi. Away from home, use a private network such as Tailscale. BEFORE YOU START You need ZCode on a Mac and the free, open-source Zode relay: https://github.com/zrll2/zode NO MAC NEARBY? Tap "Try the demo" on the first screen to explore everything with sample data. No account or network needed. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. Your messages go between your phone and your Mac only. We have no servers. Zode is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Z.AI or Anthropic. ZCode and Claude Code are trademarks of their respective owners.
