AgentsDock vs AppRelay Remote

AgentsDock is the control surface for the AI agents you already run. AgentsDock talks to a small open-source server (AgentsServer) that you deploy yourself in one command. Every chat, job, and file stays on your infrastructure — and can be reached from anywhere. SYNCED ACROSS EVERY DEVICE Start a job on your Mac, check it from your iPhone or iPad, or drive it from Linux — every chat stays in sync in real time, wherever you are. RICH MEDIA, RIGHT IN THE CHAT Videos, simulation output, and image grids land directly in the conversation as your agent produces them. ALL YOUR CHATS, ORGANIZED Group work by project or folder, switch between Claude and Codex per chat, and keep every thread in one place instead of scattered across terminal tabs. FULLY SELF-HOSTED Run everything on your own Mac, Linux box, or cluster. Your code, credentials, and outputs never leave infrastructure you control. FULL TERMINAL, EVEN ON YOUR PHONE Each chat owns a persistent terminal session on your server — drop into a real shell from your phone whenever you need to. SCHEDULE JOBS AHEAD OF TIME Queue a run to fire now, after an interval, or on a repeating loop — kick off long research jobs without babysitting them. HAND OFF BETWEEN AGENTS Digest mode lets one chat summarize its work and send it straight into another, so long chains of work don't need manual copy-pasting. OPEN SOURCE SERVER AgentsServer is MIT-licensed and fully open source — read the code, fork it, and self-host it for as long as you like. The client is not open source yet. Requires a server you control running the AgentsServer installer, with Claude Code and/or Codex CLI already authenticated. AgentsDock does not include AI models or API access itself.

Stop walking back to your desk to kick off a build. Ship from the couch. AppRelay Remote is the mobile companion to AppRelay Server for desktop — a remote control that commands your Mac or PC to build, run, test, and ship your app projects. The Mac does the work; your phone drives it. Pair once over your local Wi-Fi and your whole AppRelay workspace comes with you: every project, every lane, every release channel, right on your iPhone or iPad. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Trigger builds, runs, and test suites on your Mac with a tap • Cut a release — ship a lane to its distribution channel without touching your desk • Watch live, streaming log output as each build runs, with a Stop button when you need it • Browse every project as a card: toolchain, lanes, version, and source-control status at a glance • Edit the full project configuration — general settings, lanes, servers, toolchains, test suites — and save it back to your Mac • Bump or set version and build numbers • Edit .env / dotenv files on disk, remotely • Manage your Mac's AppRelay license: activate a key, check status, or move the seat BUILT FOR iPHONE AND iPAD On iPhone you get a fast, single-column flow. On iPad you get the same two-column sidebar-and-detail layout as the Mac app — it even re-skins live when you change the desktop theme. SECURE BY DESIGN • Discovers Macs on your network automatically over Bonjour • Pair with a one-time token shown on your Mac — each device gets its own credential • All traffic runs over TLS, pinned to your Mac on first connection • Your Mac stays in control: block or disconnect any device at any time • Secrets never leave your Mac — the phone sees credential labels only, never their values REQUIRES THE MAC APP AppRelay Remote needs AppRelay for macOS running on the same network. Get it at apprelay.io/download. Free to pair; Pro features are managed on the Mac. AppRelay Remote needs the desktop app, which is **not** on the Mac App Store — it ships directly from the website (Sparkle-updated, notarized DMG). **Download:** https://apprelay.io/download **Requirement:** macOS 13 (Ventura) or later. **Enable the server:** open AppRelay → **Relay Monitor** → **Start**. This starts a local HTTPS server, advertises it over Bonjour (`_apprelay._tcp`), and shows the address + a pairing token. **Pair:** on the same Wi-Fi, open AppRelay Remote, pick the Mac under "Discovered Macs" (or enter host/port manually), and enter the pairing token. **Security:** self-signed TLS pinned trust-on-first-use; each device gets its own token; the Mac can block/disconnect any device from Relay Monitor.
