Agent Tick vs Otherside CLI

Agent Tick is a least-permission Request routing layer for coding agents. Use the Agent Tick app when your local coding agent needs a bounded human response while you are away from your desk: - Steering lets you choose from bounded options the agent provided. - Sanctions let you approve or deny one specific risky action before it happens. - Status Updates show what the agent is doing and it's full reply at the end of a turn. Agent Tick is not a remote shell. The app cannot execute arbitrary commands on your machine, and approved actions still run in your local agent environment. The service is source-available and self-hostable. You can inspect the code and run your own Agent Tick server, or use the hosted service when you want routing, push notifications, updates, and uptime handled for you.

Otherside CLI is the mobile companion for your terminal coding agent. Pair the app with the Otherside CLI running on your laptop, then control your AI coding sessions from anywhere. See your agent's progress in real time, approve permission requests on the go, and pick up the conversation from your phone when you step away from the keyboard. Features: - Live session view: every tool call, file edit, and assistant reply streams to your phone in real time - Permission control: approve or deny agent actions from the lock screen via push notifications - Multi-provider: pair with sessions running multiple AI providers - End-to-end encrypted: messages and content are encrypted on your devices; the broker never sees plaintext - Push notifications: get notified when your agent finishes, hits an error, or needs your input - Multi-device: pair multiple desktops to one mobile Privacy first: Otherside uses end-to-end encryption with standard cryptographic primitives (X25519, ChaCha20-Poly1305). Your conversation content never leaves your devices in readable form. Get started by installing the Otherside CLI on your laptop (othersidecli.com), then scan the QR code from the mobile app to pair.
