Pi Relay vs Moshpit

Pi Relay is a companion iPhone app for the Pi coding agent. It lets you connect securely to your own Pi remote-control server, browse active projects and sessions, and continue conversations from your phone. Pairing is simple: install the Pi remote-control extension on the machine running Pi, open the pairing QR code, and scan it with Pi Relay. Once paired, you can switch between remotes, view project sessions, read conversation history, send new prompts, abort running work, and request context compaction with /compact. Pi Relay is designed for users who already run Pi on their own computer or development environment and want a lightweight mobile companion for monitoring and continuing work away from the desktop. Key features: - QR-code pairing with your Pi remote-control server - Remote list with quick switching and unpairing - Project and session browsing - Conversation view with selectable and copyable messages - Runtime status and context usage display - Prompt sending, abort support, and /compact support - Live session updates while the app is active Pi Relay requires a running Pi remote-control extension/server. The extension is available at: https://github.com/zerray/pi-remote-control

Your coding agents don't stop when you stand up. Moshpit is the terminal that lets you answer them from anywhere — a lock-screen alert the moment an agent needs you that drops you into the pane that asked, a glance at Claude Code or Codex from the Dynamic Island, and a brand-new isolated task started from your phone. A REAL TERMINAL FIRST • SSH and Mosh — sessions that survive Wi-Fi/5G handoffs, sleep, and bad hotel networks • tmux control mode: native rendering, swipe between windows and panes, create/rename/kill — no tiny fake desktop squeezed onto a phone • herdr support: the multiplexer built for coding agents, rendered one full-width pane at a time • iPad: hosts on the left, the terminal on the right, tmux pickers as popovers • Hardware-keyboard friendly — ⌘K, ⌘1–⌘9, ⌘W on iPad — custom themes, seven terminal fonts, nine Liquid Glass icons BUILT FOR AGENT WORK • See every agent at a glance: who needs you, who's working, for how long • Needs-you pings on the lock screen, sealed end to end and delivered even with the app closed — tap one and you are in the pane that asked • Start an agent on a fresh git worktree from your phone: pick a repo, name a branch, optionally hand it the first prompt • Agent status needs ZERO host-side setup on herdr; a one-line hook install on tmux HONEST BY DESIGN • One-time purchase. No subscription, no accounts, no feature tiers. • Nothing is collected. No analytics, no tracking — your keys stay in the iOS Keychain on your device and your traffic goes only to your own servers. • Moshpit never installs anything on your host silently, never creates sessions behind your back, and tells you when it degrades instead of quietly switching transports. Works with any SSH server. Mosh, tmux and herdr are optional — install guides are built in.
