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.
