Mochi is the place to control your AI coding agents from your iPhone. The agents run in herdr on your server. Mochi shows what each one is doing and takes you to it when it needs you. CONTROL YOUR AGENTS WITH HERDR • Live Activity on the lock screen: which agents are working and which are waiting for you • A notification when an agent is blocked or done, even when Mochi is closed • Tap it to open that agent's pane and answer from the chat input • Swipe to switch herdr tabs A REAL TERMINAL UNDERNEATH Mochi is a fast, beautiful SSH client built on the Ghostty terminal engine — a real terminal emulator in your pocket, not a toy. SSH INTO ANY SERVER Save your connections and jump into any of them in a tap. Password and key auth, custom ports, works great over Tailscale. FIRE COMMANDS IN ONE TAP Build your own shortcut groups: tmux prefixes, Ctrl combos, slash commands, whole snippets with Enter. The keyboard toolbar puts esc, tab, ctrl and ⌘ right above the keys — no more fighting the mobile keyboard. MAKE IT YOURS 500+ built-in terminal themes with search and light/dark filters. Real monospace fonts (JetBrains Mono and more), adjustable size, pinch to zoom in session. LOCK KEYS BEHIND FACE ID Private keys live in the iOS Keychain. Flip one switch and every use of a key requires Face ID. BUILT FOR ENGINEERS • Ghostty-powered terminal emulation — fast, correct, modern • Multiple simultaneous sessions • Native iOS design that feels at home on iOS 26 • No accounts, no tracking — your servers are your business

BUILT FOR REAL WORK, NOT JUST CHAT - Rich streaming output: diffs, code blocks, to-do plans, and command results rendered natively - Multiple concurrent sessions with a live status carousel on your Lock Screen - Notifications when a session finishes, needs input, or hits an error — even if the app was force-quit - Scheduled runs that start on their own - Voice input with on-device transcription — dictate a task, hands-free PRIVATE BY DESIGN - End-to-end encrypted between your device and your Mac - Connects directly over your local network at home, or securely relayed when you are away - LAN-only mode keeps everything on your network with no cloud at all - No account required to pair with your own machine YOUR MACHINE, YOUR RULES The agent runs where your code lives.
