Remote terminal access for AI coding agents. Manage Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Qwen, and OpenClaw sessions from your phone and Apple Watch. • Sending messages to and receiving output from remote AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw)* • Cross agents aduit, review, plan, brainstorm, or discuss • Viewing live terminal output from remote development sessions • Browsing and edit remote project files, uploading files or photos from the device, downloading files from the server • Viewing repository information and file changes (git diffs) • Running and monitoring multiple agents in parallel • Receiving push notifications when agents complete tasks or need attention • Voice input for hands-free interaction • Biometric authentication with Face ID / Touch ID • Multi-server dashboard — manage agents across all your machines • Self-hostable — deploy the open-source server on your own infrastructure IM.codes is a developer tool — not an AI service. A daemon runs on your dev machine and manages terminal sessions through tmux. This app connects via WebSocket for real-time remote access, the same way an SSH client works. AI agent CLIs (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI) are third-party tools that you install and authenticate independently on your own machines. The relay server is fully open source under MIT. Self-host for production use, or try the demo at app.im.codes. Source: github.com/im4codes/imcodes

AgentDeck is a private mobile client for OpenClaw and Hermes that puts you in control of your agentic workflows. Connect your own relay through Cloudflare R2 and keep your agent server behind its firewall, without relying on a centralized chat service. Continue your sessions from your iPhone or iPad with cross-device reliability, keeping your home or office machine safely behind its firewall and never exposing it to the public internet. # A Native, Optimized Experience AgentDeck isn't just a relay; it's a refined interface designed specifically for high-level agent interaction: • Custom Agent Commands: Trigger complex agent behaviors with a dedicated Command UI-no more typing long CLI strings on a mobile keyboard. • Human-in-the-Loop Confirmation: Stay in control of autonomous actions with a native Confirmation UI that lets you review and approve sensitive agent tasks before they execute. • Full Attachment Support: Seamlessly send images and files to your vision-capable agents directly from your mobile photo library or files app. • Comfortable Reading: Choose between "Bubble" or "Terminal" styles with customizable fonts and a roomy iPad split-view. # How it Works • Install: Add the AgentDeck relay integration to your OpenClaw or Hermes setup. • Connect: Link the integration to your own Cloudflare R2 bucket. • Sync: Point AgentDeck at your relay. Normal usage stays comfortably within Cloudflare's generous free tier. # Why Power Users Choose AgentDeck • Private by Design: Your OpenClaw or Hermes server stays private; Cloudflare R2 acts as the delivery layer. • Decentralized & Secure: A self-hosted relay ensures you retain 100% ownership of your transcripts and data. • Seamless Continuity: Pick up active sessions away from your desk and inspect server details at a glance. • Pro Visibility: Browse servers, agents, and detailed session transcripts with a mobile-first UI that outperforms a simple terminal. You bring the data store. You own the data. AgentDeck handles the rest. Open source under the MIT License. Project and setup guides: https://github.com/dodid/AgentDeck.
