Sesori is the remote control for the AI coding agents running on your own computer. Start a task at your desk, then follow it, answer it and steer it from your iPhone. Your code stays on your machine. Works with OpenCode, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, Pi, OMP, Hermes, DeepSeek and Grok Build. Sesori connects to the agents you already use; it is not affiliated with or endorsed by their makers. FROM YOUR PHONE • See every project and session on your computer, and run several sessions at once • Start a session, pick the agent and model, and give it its own Git worktree • Get a push notification when an agent finishes, asks a question or needs approval • Approve or reject permission requests where the agent supports them • Queue a follow-up while a turn is running, or stop it • Hold the mic and speak your prompt, then check the transcript before you send it • Attach images and use the agent's own slash commands and skills • Review the local Git diff, branch and pull request status PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your repository, toolchain and coding agent never move to a cloud workspace. The Sesori Bridge runs next to them on your computer and connects to your phone through a relay. Session traffic is end-to-end encrypted (X25519 key exchange, XChaCha20-Poly1305), so the relay passes ciphertext, not your code, prompts or AI responses. Voice transcription and notification previews use a separate, documented data path. HOW IT WORKS 1. Install Sesori Desktop on macOS or Linux and sign in. It runs the Bridge for you. On a server, over SSH or on Windows, run the headless Bridge CLI instead. 2. Sign in to this app with the same GitHub, Google, Apple or email account. 3. Your projects appear on your phone. Pick one and keep working. Not a mobile IDE and not a cloud sandbox: your agent runs where it always does, with your tools, files and settings. Your agent and model provider keep their own plans and pricing. Sesori is free. Setup guides and the security model: sesori.com and docs.sesori.com.

About

Pi in Pocket

Features
Read full description

Pi in Pocket is the mobile companion for pi, the open-source coding agent (github.com/badlogic/pi-mono). Control your agent remotely from your iPhone or iPad while it runs on your Mac. Pi is a minimal terminal coding agent that gives an LLM four core tools: read, write, edit, and bash. It supports multiple providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, and more), is fully extensible with skills, prompt templates, and extensions, and runs in interactive, RPC, or SDK mode. Pi in Pocket connects to your Mac over your local network or Tailscale VPN through the pi-bridge server, giving you a live window into every running session. What you can do: • Watch the agent think, call tools, and write code in real time • Send messages, steer the agent mid-turn, or queue follow-ups • Browse live and completed sessions across all your projects • Start new sessions in any project directory • Switch LLM models and thinking levels on the fly • Compact context when the conversation gets long • Get push notifications when a task finishes • Read full tool outputs, code diffs, and markdown responses Built for developers who want to stay in the loop while away from the keyboard. Start a long task on your Mac, walk away, and manage everything from your phone. Requires a Mac running the pi-bridge server and the pi coding agent. Connect over your local network or Tailscale VPN.
