About

CodeAgentMobile

Features
Read full description

CodeAgent is the workflow-continuity layer for AI coding agents. Your agent already runs in your IDE. CodeAgent gives you the supervision surface developers need now that agents run for hours, not seconds: • Stay in the loop while a long refactor builds. • Approve diffs, redirect prompts, course-correct from anywhere. • Hand off work between devices without breaking the session. • Spin up GitHub Codespaces from the app — no laptop required. • Share live agent sessions with teammates in Team Spaces. Works with the agents already running in your editor — Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, JetBrains AI, OpenAI Codex, Vertex AI, Gemini, and any terminal agent via the codeam-cli. Install once in your IDE / CLI, pair with a QR, and your workflow follows you. Async AI productivity, in your pocket. --- Open source. Built in public. Privacy-first — your agent traffic runs through your IDE, not our servers. https://www.codeagent-mobile.com/terms https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
