kube-coder mobile is the companion app for kube-coder, an open-source, self-hosted cloud development platform (github.com/imran31415/kube-coder). If you run a kube-coder workspace, this app lets you drive it from anywhere. CONNECT IN SECONDS Point the app at your workspace host and paste the API token from your dashboard (Settings โ Mobile app). No account, no sign-up โ the app talks directly to your own server, and the token is stored securely on your device. Just looking? Tap "Explore the public demo" on the first screen to browse a read-only demo workspace โ no token needed. WHAT YOU CAN DO โข Tasks โ start a coding task for your AI assistant, follow the live session, and send follow-ups when it needs input. Active work up front; finished tasks tucked under Done. โข Live terminal โ the task view renders your workspace's real terminal, the same session the web dashboard shows. โข Apps โ see the dev servers running in your workspace and open them in-app. Split the screen to watch your app change while the assistant works on it. โข Desktop โ your one-tap launchers (build prompts, URLs, shell commands), shared with the web dashboard. โข Memory โ browse what your workspace remembers. โข Metrics โ live CPU, memory, and disk, plus service health. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts. No analytics. No third-party services. The app connects only to the workspace host you configure, over HTTPS, using your token. kube-coder itself is open source โ read the code, run your own, or try the demo: github.com/imran31415/kube-coder

Un Bien is a native client for the Pi coding agent (http://pi.dev). Pair your phone with your own machines over a relay you host, then attach to running agent sessions: live transcripts with styled edit diffs and tool results, inline images, thinking blocks, plan & subagent panels โ and an interactive prompt for ask-style clarifications. Steer mid-turn or queue follow-ups; launch new sessions on paired machines (opt-in, machine-side). Self-hosted by design: there is no Un Bien cloud, no account, and no telemetry โ your relay, your keys, your machines. Includes a read-only demo mode so you can look around without any setup.
