YesPaPa
Read full descriptionHide full description
YesPaPa is the human-in-the-loop safety layer for AI coding agents. When an LLM agent or script tries to run a destructive command โ like rm -rf, git push --force, or DROP TABLE - YesPaPa intercepts it and sends an approval request straight to your phone. How it works: - Install the YesPaPa CLI on your machine - Scan the pairing QR code with this app (or use offline mode with totp) - Dangerous commands are intercepted and held until you approve Approve with confidence: - One-tap approve or deny from a push notification - See the full command, AI crafted justification, and context before deciding - Approve with a message to guide the agent's next steps - Set Auto-Bypass (grace periods) for trusted command patterns Built on real security: - TOTP-based authentication (RFC 6238) - works offline too - Zero-trust architecture - approvals are cryptographically verified - Tamper-resistant - agents cannot bypass or uninstall their own guardrails(read the docs.yespapa.io for advanced use) - Falls back to manual TOTP codes if the server is unreachable(self hosting included!) Perfect for: - Developers using OpenClaw, Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot workflows, or other AI coding assistants - DevOps engineers running automated scripts on production systems - Teams that need human approval gates for destructive operations in CI/CD pipelines - Anyone who wants a safety net before irreversible commands execute YesPaPa works with any shell on macOS and Linux. The CLI is open-source at github.com/yespapa-cli. Docs available: https://docs.yespapa.io

Kangentic Mobile is the companion app for Kangentic, the desktop tool for running coding agent sessions. Pair your phone with your desktop once, then check on your agents, read their progress, answer prompts, and review diffs from wherever you are. Key features: - Live session view: read the agent's transcript as a clean chat feed, or mirror the raw terminal when you need the full picture. - Answer permission prompts and questions the agent raises, right from your phone. - Review file changes with a per-file diff view before they land. - Push notifications when a session needs your attention. - End-to-end encrypted connection between your phone and desktop. No account required, and no Kangentic server ever sees your session content. Kangentic Mobile requires the Kangentic desktop app running on the same network (or reachable through a relay) to pair with.
