lpm Link vs KoKo

lpm Link is the iPhone companion for lpm on macOS. Pair once by scanning a QR code, then view your projects, check service status, start and stop local development projects, and type into running terminal sessions — including AI coding agents — right from your phone. All commands continue to run on your Mac. The app connects only to your own lpm desktop instance, over your local network or your private Tailscale network. No account, no cloud, no data collected. Requires the free lpm app for macOS.
