Your agents run on your computer. Your phone tells you when they need you. AgentsRoom is the remote control for the AI coding agents running on your Mac, PC or Linux machine. It requires the AgentsRoom desktop app and at least one coding CLI installed there with its own account: Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Cursor and ten more. Nothing runs on the phone itself. You start, watch, answer and steer from wherever you are, over an end-to-end encrypted link. WHAT YOU NEED - A Mac, PC or Linux machine with the AgentsRoom desktop app installed and running - At least one coding CLI on that machine, with its own account or subscription - This app, paired once with a QR code Without the desktop app, only cloud agents are available, if your account includes cloud minutes. NEVER LEAVE AN AGENT WAITING - Push notification when an agent finishes, fails or needs a decision, then answer in one tap - Read the live output, approve, reply, send the next prompt - Dictate a prompt instead of typing it, on-device or server transcription - Share a screenshot or a file from any app straight into an agent - Write a message now and have it sent later 14 CODING CLIS, ONE REMOTE - Claude Code, Codex, Antigravity, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Aider, Grok, Mistral Vibe, Kimi, Amp, oh-my-pi, Freebuff, Devin - Pick the provider and the model for each agent, switch either mid-conversation without losing context - Several agents in parallel, across several projects - 14 roles: Architect, Full-Stack, Frontend, Backend, Mobile, DevOps, QA, Security, PM, Brainstormer, Marketing, Git, SEO, i18n, plus hundreds of experts in the catalog and custom roles with your own system prompt - Morph a running agent into another role and keep the conversation ALL YOUR MACHINES IN ONE APP - Pair your Mac, your PC and your Linux box, switch between them in one tap - See which machines are online before you start anything CLOUD AGENTS - Send a task and a disposable cloud machine runs it, commits and pushes a branch - Works with every computer of yours switched off - Uses the cloud minutes of your account TERMINAL, SSH, DATABASES, GIT - A real terminal on your machine, with tabs, from your phone - Open the SSH connections saved on your desktop and work on your servers - SQL console on MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB: read-only, capped results, and the password never leaves the desktop - Review the diff of what an agent changed, commit and push - Start and stop your dev servers, read their output live - Secret references your agents can use but never read PROMPTS, SKILLS, BACKLOG AND TEAMS - Your prompt library and agent skills, in your pocket, editable, sent to an agent in a tap - Kanban board: move a ticket to In Progress and an agent picks it up - Public backlog for teammates and clients, Idea Radar that sorts raw feedback by theme - Launch a team of agents that hand work to each other, and follow every step - Scheduled and webhook triggers, edited from the phone, run by the desktop STAY IN THE LOOP - Live preview: publish your local dev server on a public HTTPS address and share the link - Chat with your team: mentions, replies, reactions, attachments - Usage bars per provider and token usage per session PRIVACY BY DESIGN - Pairing by QR code, X25519 key exchange, XSalsa20-Poly1305 encryption - The relay never sees your content, and you can self-host it - Database and SSH passwords stay in your computer's keychain, never on the phone HOW IT WORKS 1. Install the AgentsRoom desktop app on your Mac, PC or Linux machine, next to your coding CLI. 2. Scan the QR code with your phone, or pick your machine from the list. 3. Start, watch and steer your agents from wherever you are. AgentsRoom is an independent product, not affiliated with Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or any CLI vendor. Running agents on your own machine requires the AgentsRoom desktop app for macOS, Windows or Linux and your own CLI subscription. Cloud agents run without them.
