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

About

Ezssh

Features

A real SSH client that fits in your pocket. Connect and you get an actual terminal: TAB, CTRL, ESC, arrows and F1-F12 sit right above the keyboard, so typing commands feels the way it does on a desktop. Sessions stay alive when you switch apps, and the screen never dims while you are reading output. ALL YOUR SERVERS, ONE APP Save a host once - address, port, user, key - and connect with a single tap afterwards. Group them, rename them, find them in seconds. Credentials live in the device keychain only: never uploaded anywhere, never leaving your phone. FILES WITHIN REACH Built-in SFTP: send scripts, configs and logs straight from your phone; open files on the server without downloading them first, edit and push back. Multi-select, zip and unzip are there when a batch needs to move. LET AI TYPE THE COMMANDS Describe what you need done and it runs the commands on the machine step by step, showing you every line. Anything destructive - a delete, a restart - waits for your approval first. You choose which provider to connect; keys stay on your device. SEE THE STATE AT A GLANCE CPU, memory, disk, load and network refresh in real time. One look tells you whether a box is struggling. DETAILS THAT MATTER Pick your terminal font, size and theme. Keep the screen awake while you read. Sync hosts across devices with iCloud. Dark mode, Dynamic Type and accessibility labels included. WHO IT IS FOR - Ops and SRE: a 3 a.m. alert no longer means hunting for a laptop. - Developers and site owners: confirm a deploy while on the move. - Homelab and NAS owners: Raspberry Pi, routers and Docker hosts, always reachable. - Anyone learning Linux: practise commands on the phone you already carry. EZSSH PRO The free version keeps 1 host and 2 AI questions a day. Pro removes the ceiling: unlimited hosts, file preview and editing, upload and download, multi-select with zip and unzip, and unlimited AI. SUBSCRIPTION AND TERMS - Subscription: one year, renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID subscription settings; you keep access until the current period ends. A one-time lifetime purchase is also available. - Terms of Use (EULA): https://docs.zeckw.com/docs/apps/ezssh/eula.html - Privacy Policy: https://docs.zeckw.com/docs/apps/ezssh/private.html
