Corterm vs RuntimeBrief

Corterm brings your self-hosted terminal workspace to iPhone and iPad. Install a Worker on your server, Mac, PC, or container host, connect it to your Gateway, and start shell sessions from anywhere. Use Corterm to: • create and reconnect terminal sessions on your own machines • manage online workers and check their status • activate workers with a simple device-flow code • keep long-running sessions available across reconnects • work with a touch-friendly mobile interface Corterm is built for developers, operators, and power users who want remote terminal access without handing infrastructure to a third-party cloud. You host the Gateway. You run the Workers. Your sessions stay yours.

RuntimeBrief turns activity from your local coding agents and repositories into short, evidence-backed project updates. Connect the app to the RuntimeBrief daemon running on your Mac to see what changed, what is still in progress, and what needs your attention. Each claim links back to its supporting commit, working-tree scan, or agent session. Features: • A concise portfolio brief across your registered projects • Evidence-backed project status and recent agent activity • Native Claude Code, Codex and Cursor tasks in registered projects with model and permission choices and provider-supported native handoff • Optional, on-demand analyst answers through your own Codex CLI login • Local Xcode, TestFlight, and App Store release summaries • Siri and Shortcuts access to project status • Saved briefs when your Mac is temporarily unavailable • A fully offline fictional demo requiring no account or server RuntimeBrief has no hosted account, analytics SDK, advertising SDK, or public cloud relay. Live project data stays under your control on your Mac and private network. Optional analyst processing follows the data controls of the ChatGPT workspace selected in Codex CLI. Native tasks use your existing provider login and follow that provider's account policies and the selected tool permissions. A Mac running runtimebriefd is required for live project data. The in-app demo can be explored without installing or configuring anything. Native tasks require the selected coding agent installed and signed in on that Mac. Provider-supported handoff also requires the corresponding native desktop app.
