Cmdora turns your iPhone into a remote control for your Mac development environment. Run AI coding tasks, trigger builds, tail logs, and approve changes without opening your laptop. Built for iOS developers and engineers who want a compact control surface for their projects, terminal commands, and automation when they are away from the desk. Key capabilities: - Run AI coding tasks (Codex CLI) - the agent proposes changes, nothing is applied without your explicit approval - Get push notifications when a task finishes, fails, or needs your approval - Trigger build and automation tasks - Stream task logs and status updates - Keep your Mac awake while you work - and get notified when it goes on battery - Manage secure remote connections and project workspaces - Keep detailed errors visible when something fails AI tasks require the Codex CLI installed on your Mac. Terminal, builds, and everything else work without it. Cmdora works with a companion coordinator and secure remote runtime. The runtime executes the shell commands and automation scripts you configure on your own development machine. Add the server URL, remote id, and access token in the app to connect your iPhone to your environment.

About

LLM Bench

Features
Read full description

LLM Bench is an iOS test bench for developers comparing on-device LLM behavior under real device constraints. Run the same prompt against selected local model targets and compare the evidence before choosing what belongs in your app. LLM Bench focuses on practical signals: load time, first output time, generation time, output speed, memory, thermal state, model readiness, raw output text, failures, and saved run history. Use LLM Bench to: - Compare GPU-capable local model runs on iPhone and iPad. - Run repeatable prompts against selected model targets. - Inspect model output, timing, memory, and thermal state in one place. - Save benchmark runs for later review. - Export benchmark evidence as CSV. - Add models from Hugging Face URLs, direct file URLs, or local imports when the artifact format is supported. LLM Bench is built for technical builders who want a compact measurement tool, not a leaderboard or generic AI chat app. It helps you answer the practical question: which local model behaves well enough on this device for this use case? The free tier includes one completed benchmark run. Subscribing unlocks ongoing benchmarking, saved comparison work, and export workflows. Premium is available as an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly), or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at purchase; subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
