KKCode is the mobile client for OpenCode — the AI coding agent that runs on your Mac. Connect to your local OpenCode server over Wi-Fi or Tailscale, and bring AI-powered coding assistance wherever you go. FEATURES • Multiple AI Models — Switch freely between DeepSeek, Zhipu, Qwen, Kimi, MiniMax, and any model supported by your OpenCode server. Model preferences are remembered per session and persist across conversations. • Streaming Responses — Responses stream in real time. Scroll freely while the AI is generating; KKCode keeps your position and never interrupts your reading experience. • Code & Markdown Rendering — Enjoy full syntax highlighting for code blocks, inline formatting, and rich markdown display. • Tool Call Transparency — See exactly which tools the AI invoked, review file changes, and inspect inputs and outputs for every tool call. • Image Attachment — Send screenshots or design mockups directly from your photo library. • Session Management — Organize conversations by project directory. Rename, swipe to delete, or bulk remove sessions whenever you need. • Split View Support — Keep your session list and active chat side by side for a desktop-class multitasking experience. • Offline-Safe Draft — Your unfinished messages are automatically saved per session and restored when you return. • Multi-language Support — English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, 日本語, 한국어, Deutsch, Français, Português, Русский. • Dark & Light Mode — Automatically follows your system appearance. HOW IT WORKS KKCode connects to the OpenCode server running on your Mac. Start the server with: opencode serve –hostname 0.0.0.0 –port 4096 Then add your server connection in KKCode and start chatting. For remote access outside your home network, Tailscale is recommended. KKCode requires an OpenCode server to function. It does not include built-in AI inference or AI models.

Coden is a remote control for a coding Agent that works on your own computer. You install the Server on the computer and start it over one project. The phone pairs with it by scanning a QR code — and from that moment you no longer have to be at the desk. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Give it a task and watch what the Agent does, line by line. • Approve or reject every change it wants to write. • Browse the project's files, images and Markdown included. • Run the tests and see what failed. • Open the running application in Preview, as if you were at the computer. • Switch a branch, write a commit, look through the history. THE WORK STAYS WITH YOU Neither the project nor the source code is uploaded anywhere. The Agent runs on your computer, under your account, over the directory you gave it. The phone is a window into it, not storage. The connection between the phone and the computer is end-to-end encrypted. When the two cannot see each other directly, our Service passes the traffic — but it cannot read it, because it has no key to it. NO ACCOUNT There is nothing to register and nothing to sign in to. Nothing to forget. WHAT YOU NEED • A computer with macOS, Windows or Linux, and the Server from coden-app.com • The Claude Code CLI and an Anthropic account — you pay for the Agent directly with them Without the Agent the Server still runs: Documents and Preview work, there is just nobody to give a task to. FREE Both the app and the Server are free. We sell nothing inside the app and collect no analytics.
