Lunel vs Panegrip

Lunel — Mobile Dev Environment Your development environment, right in your pocket. Lunel lets you control your local machine from your phone. Run npx lunel-cli inside any project, scan the QR code with the Lunel app, and you're connected. No complex setup. No new accounts. Just your existing project, accessible from anywhere. Built for Real Development This isn't a code viewer or a lightweight editor. Lunel gives you a complete development workflow on mobile — the same tools you rely on at your desk, now in your hands. What You Can Do — AI Agent: Run an AI coding assistant powered by Opencode or Openai Codex. It understands your repository, searches intelligently, and generates context-aware changes directly in your environment. — Terminal: Full command line access. Run scripts, manage dependencies, start servers, and execute any command connected to your live project. — Code Editor: Edit files, review diffs, and make updates in a responsive editor built for real workflows, not just quick glances. — Browser & DevTools: Preview your app, inspect elements, and monitor network requests without switching tools or environments. — File Explorer: Browse, create, rename, and delete files and folders across your entire project. — Git: Push, Pull, Commit, Manage branches, view old commits/diffs with ease. — Process Manager, Port Manager, API Client, String Tools and System Monitor. — All of this secured behind end to end encryption so you can work without worries. How It Works Lunel connects your phone directly to your local machine over a secure connection. Run one command in your project directory, scan the QR code, and you're in. Your laptop stays on while you work, Lunel handles the rest. Who It's For Lunel is built for developers who want to stay productive when they're away from their desk - on the couch, commuting, traveling, or anywhere a laptop isn't practical. If you've ever wished you could push a fix or check on a running server from your phone, Lunel is for you.

Coding agents get stuck the moment you step away: a command waiting for approval, a question about the design, a choice between two fixes. Panegrip sends that moment to your iPhone, so the work keeps going while you're on the train, in a meeting or making coffee. It works with the agents already running on your computer, such as Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Pi and Kimi, wherever you run them: Herdr, Orca, T3 Code, tmux, zellij, cmux, Ghostty or VS Code. Nothing moves to the cloud. Your agents stay where they are, and your phone becomes a second screen for them. ANSWER WITHOUT UNLOCKING When an agent wants to run a command, the notification shows it with Allow and Deny. Tap one on the lock screen and the computer has your answer within milliseconds. Questions with options come as buttons, and you can always type or say your own answer instead. "Always allow" covers exactly that one command, nothing broader. THE REAL SESSION Each chat is the agent's own session, live as it writes: its messages, the commands it ran and the files it touched. When you need more, open the terminal itself, with Esc, Tab, Ctrl and the arrow keys a tap away. GIVE IT THE NEXT JOB Start an agent in any project, in a new folder, a fresh clone or a worktree of its own. Type the task or dictate it. Queue up the next prompts and each one goes out as soon as the agent is free. If you hit your plan's limit at 2 a.m., the work picks back up the moment it resets. Siri, Shortcuts and the Action button can start a task without opening the app. SEE HOW THINGS STAND A Live Activity shows who is working, who is waiting for you and who is done. You get the 5-hour and weekly limits of every Claude and Codex account, tokens and cost by model and by day, and a short digest of what happened while you were away. PRIVATE BY DESIGN There's no account and no tracking. Your phone connects straight to your computer whenever the network allows, encrypted end to end. When it can't, our relay forwards packets it has no way to read. Notification text is encrypted on your computer, so our push service never sees it either. WHAT YOU NEED A Mac or a Linux computer with your agents, plus the Panegrip relay, which installs with one command from panegrip.dev. The app is free, with no subscription. You can open the demo first and look around without a computer.
