farcrew vs RelayPulse

Your agents run on your machine. You watch from your phone. farcrew keeps a terminal session alive on a computer you own - a Mac, a Linux box, a VPS - and puts it in your pocket. Start a long run at your desk, close the lid, and pick it up on the train. Nothing was running on the phone, so nothing stopped. THE LOOP IT WAS BUILT FOR An agent works for twenty minutes, then stops to ask you something. Until you answer, it does nothing. farcrew notices the moment a session starts waiting and tells your phone. You read the question, type the answer, and the run continues. WHAT YOU GET • Every run in one list - waiting first, then running, then finished, across every machine you have paired. • A real terminal, not a remote control. Type, scroll, search the scrollback, pinch to resize the type, send Esc, Tab, Ctrl-C and the arrows from a key bar built for a thumb. • Attach a photo or a file to a session straight from your phone. • Notifications when a run needs you, and only then - a session you are already looking at never pings you. • Port previews: publish a dev server from your machine on a secret URL and open it anywhere. • Workspaces that keep the same shape on the phone, the desktop app and the web console. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY RUN Anything that lives in a terminal: coding agents, build scripts, test suites, log tails, a plain shell. farcrew does not wrap a particular tool - it carries the terminal. BUILT SO WE CANNOT READ IT What is on your terminal is encrypted on your device and decrypted on your machine, with a key the two of them negotiate directly (X25519, AES-256-GCM). Our relay forwards ciphertext it holds no key for. Each machine's identity is pinned the first time you connect, and the app tells you loudly if it ever changes. Sign-in is a password plus a passkey, with recovery codes for the day the passkey is gone. WHAT YOU NEED • A computer of your own, running macOS or Linux, that stays on while your work does. • The farcrew daemon installed on it - one command, then a pairing code. • A farcrew account. farcrew is not a shell that runs on your phone, and it is not a cloud that runs your code. It is the wire between the machine you already trust and the phone already in your hand. Questions: support@farcrew.app

RelayPulse puts your server fleet in your pocket. SEE EVERY SERVER AT A GLANCE One screen shows the whole fleet: online, warning, stale and offline counts, plus total bandwidth. Each card carries what matters - the service you watch, connections, download and upload, CPU, RAM and disk. KNOW WHEN SOMETHING IS WRONG, NOT ONLY WHEN IT IS DOWN A server can answer while the service that matters has stopped. RelayPulse checks the systemd service you choose - a web server, a database, containers, a relay, a node - and the ports it should listen on, so you find out while it is still fixable. FLEET HEALTH A dedicated view ranks what needs attention right now and lists the busiest servers, so a hundred machines stay readable. REAL TOOLS, NOT JUST CHARTS Read service logs, see the top processes and disk usage, check the agent endpoint - over SSH, straight from the phone. Nothing runs until you confirm it. NO AGENT REQUIRED Add a server with its address and your SSH key or the server's password, and RelayPulse reads it directly. Nothing is installed on the server. An optional open-source metrics agent gives faster readings for large fleets. YOUR KEYS STAY ON YOUR PHONE Log in with an SSH key or with the server's own password, such as the root password from your VPS provider - the same choices as RelayPulse on the Mac. Create a key on the device and install it with one tap, or paste your own. Keys and passwords stay in the iOS Keychain. No accounts, no server of ours, no analytics, no ads. OPTIONAL AI DIAGNOSIS Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic key and let the app summarise what went wrong and suggest the fix. Off by default. The key is stored in the iOS Keychain and sent only to the provider you chose, together with the error and the log lines it needs. The app never runs a command on its own. FOR RELAY OPERATORS Running Anyone Protocol relays? RelayPulse recognises them and adds relay tools - Nyx and the relay configuration - to those servers only. TRY IT FIRST Tap "Try Demo Fleet" on the first screen to explore the app with a sample fleet before adding your own servers. It is labelled as demo on every screen, and no server is contacted while it is on. FREE FOR A SMALL FLEET Monitor up to 3 servers free, with no feature withheld and nothing that expires. One purchase lifts the limit for your whole fleet. WHAT IT WORKS WITH Linux servers you administer yourself, reachable over SSH, with python3 installed - standard on Ubuntu, Debian and most distributions. RelayPulse is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by the Anyone Protocol project.
