Otherside CLI vs BalauDeck

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.

BalauDeck is an all-in-one client for the servers you already run — SSH, SFTP, SSH tunnels, and MySQL/MariaDB — in one fast, native app for iPhone, iPad and Mac. • SSH terminal — a real interactive shell (xterm), password or key auth, host-key verification, and an on-screen key bar for the keys phones don't have. • SFTP browser — upload, download, rename, delete, mkdir, and change permissions (chmod), with an option to browse elevated. • SSH tunnels — forward a local port through a server to reach an internal service. • MySQL/MariaDB client — schema browser, SQL editor with highlighting, a results grid you can edit inline, table designer, and SQL import/export. • Split panes & full screen — arrange several sessions side by side, or maximize one to fill the display. • Resilient connections — keepalive detects drops, with reconnect and optional tmux session persistence so you pick up exactly where you left off. • Cross-device sync — export an encrypted, passphrase-protected bundle of your connections and import it on another device. Nothing is stored on our servers. Your connections and credentials stay on your device (passwords and keys live in the system keychain). BalauDeck has no account, no tracking, and no ads.
