Clawdex lets you run your Codex/Cursor/Opencode workflows from iPhone and iPad by connecting to a bridge running on infrastructure you control. Start new runs, continue existing threads, follow live progress, review plans, respond to clarifications, and approve actions while away from your desk. You can inspect Git status and diffs, create commits, execute terminal commands on your host, browse workspaces, open localhost web apps from your bridge machine, and attach files or images from both your workspace and device. Voice input is available for quick prompts. Clawdex is built for trusted private networking over LAN, VPN, or Tailscale. It is a companion app for infrastructure you control, not a public multi-tenant shell service.
