Octopus vs Moray

Octopus brings Codex to iPhone and iPad. Connect to your Mac, development server, or remote workspace and keep real coding threads moving from anywhere. It is not another closed cloud IDE. Octopus is a mobile control surface for the environment you already use: connect through Codex app-server or SSH, browse workspaces, projects, and recent sessions, return to active threads, and follow Thinking, Waiting, and Ready states in real time. When an agent needs a decision, resolve approvals with Allow, Allow for Session, or Deny. Use text, voice, images, and files to add context without returning to your desk. Review automation runs, start a task again, inspect history, and jump back from notifications or Live Activities when work changes state. Built for developers who want to: • Monitor AI coding agents from iPhone • Resume Codex threads away from the desk • Approve commands, permissions, and structured questions remotely • Keep Mac, server, workspace, and thread context organized • Dictate quick prompts, bug notes, and test results by voice Key features: • Codex app-server and SSH connections • Server, project, thread, and recent session management • Runtime status, notifications, and Live Activity deep links • Approval cards for command and permission decisions • Markdown messages, tool results, image input, and file context • Automation list, run-now actions, and run history • SSH host fingerprint confirmation and credentials stored in device Keychain • Octopus turns your phone into a second development screen, so you can stay close to the code even when you step away from the keyboard.

The SSH client that feels like it was made by Apple. Moray is a native SSH, SFTP, and terminal client for iPhone, iPad, and Mac — with a real terminal, a dual-pane file manager, port-forwarding tunnels, and on-device key security. Your hosts and snippets sync through your own iCloud; your keys and passwords never leave the Keychain. No account, no vendor server. ▸ A REAL TERMINAL A full terminal powered by SwiftTerm — rich color, a fast keyboard, and smooth scrollback. Open several sessions as tabs, name them, switch with ⌘1–⌘9, search the scrollback, and run commands automatically on connect. Moray remembers what you typed on each server — never a password — so you can search it and re-run. A customizable Smart Bar puts arrows, Esc, Tab, Ctrl, and paste one tap away. ▸ SFTP FILE MANAGER Browse, upload, download, rename, and delete over SFTP. A server opens in your home directory and reopens in the folder you left it in. Preview with Quick Look, edit text files in place, or choose which app opens which file type — one default for everything, or a rule per extension. On iPad and Mac, a dual-pane manager copies files and whole folders between servers — or between a server and your computer — with drag and drop straight from Finder, and a file pane can sit beside the terminal, on the folder your shell is in. ▸ YOUR SERVERS IN THE FILES APP On iPhone and iPad, mount a host and it appears in Files next to iCloud Drive — open a remote file straight into any app that uses the document picker, and save back to it. ▸ PORT-FORWARDING TUNNELS Forward a local port to a database, dashboard, or service behind your server. Import the LocalForward lines from your existing ~/.ssh/config, start every tunnel with one tap, and keep them running in the background with a Live Activity. ▸ KEYS DONE RIGHT Generate or import Ed25519 and RSA keys. Keys and saved passwords live in the device Keychain — encrypted, biometric-gated, and never synced unless you opt in. Trust-on-first-use host-key pinning warns you the moment a server's identity changes. ▸ SMART AUTOFILL Moray recognizes sudo, login, passphrase, and one-time-code prompts and offers a host-scoped, Face ID–gated fill — so you enter your password once, not every time. ▸ ORGANIZED HOSTS Group your servers, tag them, and give each an icon and color. A ⌘K command palette and Siri Shortcuts get you connected in seconds. Jump hosts (ProxyJump) reach servers that sit behind a bastion. ▸ SNIPPETS Save the commands you run all the time — with fill-in placeholders — and run or paste them into any session. ▸ MAKE IT YOURS Start from built-in terminal themes or design your own with a full color editor. Choose your font, size, and cursor style. ▸ SYNC, YOUR WAY Hosts, groups, snippets, and host keys sync across your devices through your own iCloud — no Moray account, ever. Key material stays device-local unless you explicitly turn on iCloud Keychain sync. ▸ APPLE-NATIVE THROUGHOUT Widgets for your recent hosts, Siri and Spotlight, a menu-bar and keyboard-driven Mac app, a biometric app lock, and JSON backup/restore. Built with SwiftUI for iOS, iPadOS, and macOS. ________________ FREE & PRO Moray's terminal, SFTP file manager, key management, and host organization are free to use. Moray Pro unlocks iCloud sync, port-forwarding tunnels, jump hosts, SSH agent auth, custom themes, unlimited snippets, and widgets — as a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase. ________________ PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account and no vendor servers — sync is your iCloud, or nothing • Private keys and passwords stay in the Keychain, device-local by default • Open host-key pinning, so you always know exactly what you're connecting to ________________ Questions or a feature request?
