amux vs Hi,buddy

Keep your AI coding agents running while you're away from your desk. amux is the remote control for your AI engineering fleet. Monitor live Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini sessions, approve pending actions, inspect terminal output, coordinate work across agents, and recover from problems directly from your iPhone. Think of it like GitHub Mobile for AI agents: the work happens on your laptop or server, amux puts the control panel in your pocket. WHAT YOU CAN DO FROM YOUR PHONE - Check overnight runs before getting out of bed - Approve permission prompts before agents stall - See exactly why an agent stopped (peek into live terminal output) - Assign a new task to an idle session - Send a steering instruction to redirect an agent mid-run - Monitor your whole fleet at once: status, active tasks, token usage - Manage the kanban board: see what's done, doing, and stuck - Keep coding while traveling BRING YOUR OWN SERVER amux is open source. Run the single-file Python server on your Mac, Linux box, or cloud VM, then connect this app over Tailscale, your LAN, or amux Cloud. Your code and agents never leave your infrastructure. BUILT FOR PARALLEL WORK Instead of babysitting one AI assistant, run a whole fleet. One agent per feature, per bug, per module, all supervised from a single dashboard. Self-healing keeps sessions alive: amux auto-compacts context, restarts on corruption, unblocks stuck prompts, and handles rate limits fleet-wide so your agents keep shipping overnight. TWO ACCESS MODES Native iOS app (this app): SwiftUI with optimized touch targets and full peek panel. Connects to your amux server over Wi-Fi, Tailscale, or the amux cloud tunnel. Progressive Web App: Open your amux dashboard URL in Safari and install to home screen for a full-screen experience without the App Store. REQUIREMENTS - amux server running on Mac or Linux (free, open source: github.com/mixpeek/amux) - Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, or Gemini CLI installed on your server - Wi-Fi, Tailscale, or amux tunnel for remote access Learn more at amux.io

Hi,buddy turns your phone into a Claude Hardware Buddy companion for Claude Desktop. Connect over Bluetooth and keep Claude's work visible in the palm of your hand. Hi,buddy acts as a BLE peripheral compatible with the Hardware Buddy flow, showing live session state, permission prompts, and feedback controls on the device you already carry. What Hi,buddy helps with: • See Claude status at a glance Track running and waiting sessions, current status, recent activity, and token signals from Claude Desktop. • Approve faster When Claude needs permission, Hi,buddy surfaces the request so you can approve once or deny from your phone. • Feel important changes Use haptics, sound, visual states, Live Activities, and notifications to notice waiting approvals and session changes. • No extra device required Try the Claude Buddy experience without setting up an ESP32 or M5StickC-style hardware accessory. • Made for makers and developers Hi,buddy is designed for people who keep Claude Desktop running while coding, shipping, testing, or tinkering. Important notes: Hi,buddy works with Claude Desktop's Hardware Buddy Bluetooth flow. For discovery, your device system Bluetooth name may need to start with "Claude". Bluetooth discovery and sensory feedback depend on foreground/background behavior.
