MuxAgent

Walk away from your desk. Your AI agent keeps coding. MuxAgent is a mobile command center for AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, Github Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and Goose. Pair your phone with your dev machines, monitor agent activity, and approve or deny tool calls โ€” all through an end-to-end encrypted connection. THE PROBLEM AI coding agents are powerful, but they need you at your desk. They pause for approvals, wait for input, hit errors. Step away, and everything stops. THE SOLUTION muxagent keeps you connected. Get push notifications when your agent needs attention. Review what it wants to do. Approve or deny with a tap. Your agent keeps working while you grab coffee, commute, or sit in a meeting. CONTROL YOUR AGENTS REMOTELY Start new agent sessions or continue existing ones from your phone. Chat in real time with full Markdown rendering and syntax-highlighted code blocks. Your agent sees exactly what it would see at your terminal. APPROVE WITH CONFIDENCE When your agent wants to edit files or run shell commands, you see the full details first. Review code diffs with proper syntax highlighting. Examine execution plans before they run. Nothing happens without your explicit approval. MULTI-MACHINE MANAGEMENT Running agents on multiple dev machines? muxagent connects to all of them. Switch between machines in one tap. Each connection is independently encrypted. VOICE & IMAGE INPUT Dictate prompts with speech-to-text when typing is inconvenient. Attach screenshots or photos to give your agent visual context. SECURITY All communication is end-to-end encrypted. Your code and prompts are encrypted on your phone and decrypted only on your dev machine. The relay server cannot read your data. Built by developers, for developers.

StatusDrift

StatusDrift keeps a close eye on your websites, APIs and infrastructure so you hear about problems before your users do. Set up a monitor in seconds, pick a check interval, and StatusDrift will ping your endpoints from multiple regions around the clock. The moment something drifts - a slow response, a failed request, a certificate about to expire - you get notified and a new incident is opened automatically. Monitor anything that speaks a protocol: - HTTP and HTTPS checks with status code, header and keyword assertions - Ping and TCP port checks for servers and services - SSL/TLS certificate expiry monitoring - Keyword monitoring to catch silent failures and broken deploys - Multi-region checks so you can tell a real outage from a regional blip Every incident page shows a timeline of what happened, which regions were affected, how long it lasted and the response of each check along the way. Mark incidents as investigating, identified, monitoring or resolved and keep your team in sync. Plan maintenance windows ahead of time so alerts stay quiet and your status page communicates exactly what's going on. No more 3 a.m. pages for a planned database migration. The home dashboard gives you a live rollup of everything you're watching - total monitors, how many are up, down, warning, paused or with certificate issues - plus your most recent incidents in one place. Each monitor comes with a response time trend chart covering the last hour, day, week or month, with average, min and max broken out per region so you can spot slow drifts long before they turn into outages. Organise monitors into groups by service, team or environment. Development, staging and production each get their own color-coded badge, so you always know what you're looking at. Instant push notifications directly on your phone Who it's for: Developers, SREs, DevOps engineers, indie hackers and small teams who want serious uptime monitoring without a seven-figure observability stack. If you own a website, an API or a handful of services and you want to catch problems before your customers tweet about them, StatusDrift is for you. Install StatusDrift and catch the drift before your users catch it.
