Remote Pi vs wmux

Remote Pi turns your iPhone into the control surface for the AI coding agents running on every machine you work from. Pair your phone once by scanning a QR code on your Mac. From then on your devices form a mesh: the agents on your machines talk to each other, and your phone is the trusted key that authorizes new peers and lets you step in from anywhere. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Scan a QR code to pair with a machine in seconds • See every active agent session across all your paired machines in one list • Follow the conversation live as your agent streams its work • Approve or reject tool calls with a tap — you stay in control of what runs • Move between machines without losing context YOUR PHONE IS JUST THE AUTHENTICATOR You don't run the heavy work on your phone. The agents live on your computers; your phone holds the cryptographic identity that vouches for new devices and gives you a window into what's happening. Pairing uses Ed25519 device keys over TLS. WORKS WITH THE HARNESS YOU USE Remote Pi rides alongside the coding-agent setup you already run on your machines instead of replacing it. OPEN SOURCE & SELF-HOSTABLE Remote Pi is open source. Start with the public relay, or point the app at your own self-hosted relay so the connection between your devices runs on infrastructure you control. Built for developers who want their agents within reach — on the couch, on the move, or away from the desk.

The remote app for wmux desktop. Pair with a QR code and every workspace and session on your computer is on your phone — pick up where you left off, read along, type, and answer. The free wmux desktop app (wmux.app) must be installed on your computer. It works with Windows 10/11 and macOS. Your code, shells and agents stay on your computer, not in the cloud, and there is no account. wmux never calls a model. It only mirrors the terminal on your own computer, so it works however your agents are set up there — with a personal API key, Amazon Bedrock, Google Vertex AI, a company gateway or a local model. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Watch a live terminal and type into it with a full keyboard — Esc, Tab, Ctrl and the arrows included • Read the same session as a native chat for Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode: prose, code, diffs, tables, tool calls and the images the agent worked with • Fleet mirrors the desktop sidebar — workspace › pane › tasks, with anything waiting on you at the top • Search wmux's conversations, sessions and scrollback on a computer, all at once • Answer an agent's permission prompt from the lock screen or its card — Yes takes Face ID and a hold — so a run doesn't sit idle until you are back • Answer with no signal — replies wait in a queue and go out when you are back, and a recovery center gathers anything uncertain • Send a photo or a dictated line straight into a pane • Keep the count in front of you with a Home Screen widget or a lock screen Live Activity Some features need the latest wmux on your computer. BUILT FOR A PHONE, NOT SHRUNK ONTO ONE Tables wrap to the column instead of scrolling off the edge. Code blocks stay chips until you open them. The conversation groups by speaker so one turn reads as one turn. Everything is legible at arm's length in a dark room, which is where the notification usually finds you. WHAT YOU NEED wmux running on your own Windows or Mac computer — that is where your agents live, and this app is its remote. Get it at wmux.app. Your phone pairs by scanning a QR code and reaches that computer over your Tailscale tailnet, so it works away from home too. NO COMPUTER HANDY? TRY THE DEMO Open the app and tap "Try the demo" at the bottom of the pairing screen. It opens a sample workspace — an approval waiting, three sessions, a full transcript — with nothing connected and nothing sent anywhere. PRIVACY No account. No analytics. No advertising. Your pairing credential lives in this device's Keychain and is sent only to the computer you paired with. Notification contents are sealed on that computer and opened on your phone; the relay in between cannot read them. The lock screen Live Activity carries counts only — numbers, no text — and nothing is stored anywhere along the way.
