ViSH vs Fleet Command

ViSH turns your iPad into a portable, local ARM64 Linux workspace. Run Alpine Linux or Ubuntu 24.04 in a touch-friendly terminal, use AI coding CLIs, manage project files, or connect to remote servers over SSH. Your local Linux environment runs without a remote server. ViSH requires an auto-renewing subscription (yearly or monthly) and offers a 7-day free trial. All features described below require an active subscription. AI coding wherever you are Install terminal tools such as Claude Code and Codex to explore code, write scripts, and refactor projects on iPad. Bring your own account or API key and configure your environment with guided setup. Use apk on Alpine Linux or apt on Ubuntu 24.04. Install Git, OpenSSH, Node.js, npm, pnpm, nano, ripgrep, tmux, and common build tools as needed. Manage files beside your terminal The session file browser lets you browse local Linux or SSH server directories, view file details, import files and folders, create directories, and delete multiple items. Insert selected file paths directly into the terminal to save typing. Keep multiple Linux filesystems, download supported systems or import your own archives, and switch which one boots. Each filesystem retains its login user, boot command, and setup state. Export tar.gz archives or browse all filesystems from a single ViSH location in the Files app. Flexible SSH connections and protected keys Save SSH servers with password or key authentication, jump hosts, port forwarding, keep-alive, and automatic tab reconnection. On supported devices, create Secure Enclave SSH keys whose private keys stay inside secure hardware. Optionally require Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode when using a key. You can also import existing keys. Secure Enclave keys remain on the device where they were created. Built for terminal work on iPad Use multiple terminal tabs and long-press + to choose a local or SSH tab. Side panels bring files, shortcut keys, appearance, voice input, and SSH tools beside your main terminal workspace. Make it your own with a phosphor-amber interface, 505 terminal themes with live previews, and coding fonts with glyph previews. Pinch to resize text, pin the shortcut bar, use sticky modifiers and command snippets, mirror the terminal in Picture in Picture, and open Linux links in Safari. Connect serial hardware Connect compatible Bluetooth serial adapters to Linux with modem controls and optional local RFC 2217 access. Settings includes device compatibility information and guidance for an ESP32 bridge to help you choose a connection method. Notes All app features require an active ViSH subscription after the 7-day free trial. Some Linux features are limited by the iOS sandbox. Third-party tools such as Claude Code and Codex require your own account or API key with those services and may require a separate paid plan purchased outside ViSH.

Fleet Command is mission control for your AI coding agents. If you run Claude Code or Codex — on one machine or a dozen — it turns every live session into a ship on a space map you can watch, command, and answer from your phone and Apple Watch. Each ship is one coding session. At a glance you see who's thinking, who's running a command, who's waiting on you, and who's gone quiet — across all of your computers at once. THE MUSTER — your home base. One ranked list of everything that needs you, across every machine. Approve a blocked command, answer a question, or jump to a session, and clear it to zero. FLEET ATLAS — a living map of all your machines at once. Each computer gets its own territory, sized to fill your screen, with its sessions drifting inside it: green when it's humming, amber when a session is awaiting a command, red when something's blocked. Reorder your fleets with a drag, and tap one to dive in. FLEET INSIGHTS — a dashboard for your whole fleet. See what your agents spend their time on, how fast they're burning tokens, when you're busiest, and which tools, sub-agents, and skills your sessions use — across every machine, per machine, or all at once. ANSWER FROM ANYWHERE — approve or deny a risky shell command, or type a reply straight into a live session, right from the notification on your lock screen or your Apple Watch — without even opening the app. Dictate a reply from your wrist. Approve a tool once, or for the whole session. NOTIFICATIONS THAT RESPECT YOU — mute a noisy fleet, choose which alerts actually buzz you, and let quiet digests roll up the rest, so you're paged for the one that matters and never flooded. NEVER MISS THE ONE THAT MATTERS — distress timers show how long a session has been blocked and escalate as it waits. A fan-out of identical requests collapses into a single tap. Search across every machine to find any session fast. ON YOUR WRIST — a watch-face complication and Smart Stack glance show who needs you without opening anything. Approve, deny, or reply right from the watch. A Lock Screen Live Activity and Dynamic Island surface "a ship needs you." KNOWS WHEN A MACHINE GOES DARK — if a computer sleeps or drops offline, its sessions are marked offline instead of falsely flagged as stuck, so you're only paged for things that are really waiting. MULTI-MACHINE — Mac, Linux, or Windows, wherever Claude Code or Codex runs. Watch them all from one place. PRIVATE BY DESIGN — Fleet Command never sees your source code, your prompts, or your full file paths — only lightweight session metadata and a project folder name. Insights are derived on our side from that same metadata, so nothing extra runs on your machine. No accounts, no email, no password: pair a computer with a one-time code. HOW IT WORKS — install the open-source companion plugin on your computer, link it with a pairing code, and your sessions stream in live. Tap "Preview a demo fleet" to try the whole experience instantly, with no setup. Fleet Command is an independent developer tool.
