Meet Paradev (formerly Superset), the phone app for the coding agents running on your computer. Start a task, watch the agent work, answer its questions, and review the diff before anything merges, without opening your laptop. AI CODING AGENTS ON YOUR PHONE Start work the moment an idea lands. Pick a project and branch, choose an agent and model, and send the task. Every session runs in its own isolated workspace, so nothing touches your main branch until you decide it should. FOLLOW EVERY SESSION LIVE See what your agents are doing as they do it. Read their output, watch the commands they run, and know at a glance which sessions are working, which need your permission, and which are finished and waiting for you. Open the terminal when you want the raw output. CODE REVIEW ON THE GO Read every change file by file with syntax highlighting. Comment on specific lines, then send your review back to the agent in one step so it can make the fixes. Open the pull request, check its status, and merge it from your phone. NO TYPING NEEDED Dictate instructions when typing on a phone is a chore. Snap a whiteboard sketch or attach a screenshot of a bug, and the agent gets it with your message. WORKS WITH THE AGENTS YOU ALREADY USE Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor Agent, GitHub Copilot, OpenCode, Amp, and more terminal agents. Paradev is not affiliated with their makers. YOUR CODE STAYS ON YOUR MACHINE Your agents, shells, and code run on your own computer. The phone shows what they are doing and sends your input back. Nothing is downloaded or run on your device. Paradev helps you: ▶ Start agent tasks on your own computer from anywhere ▶ See which sessions need you and which are done ▶ Review diffs and leave line-by-line comments ▶ Send review feedback straight back to the agent ▶ Merge pull requests without opening your laptop ▶ Dictate instructions and attach photos and screenshots ▶ Keep up with your team's workspaces across projects GET STARTED Paradev Mobile pairs with the Paradev desktop app. Install it on your computer from superset.sh, sign in with the same account on your phone, and your machines appear with their workspaces and sessions. Paradev Mobile is included with Paradev Pro for organizations.

Herdrup is the phone client for herdr, the open-source tool that runs your AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, and around 18 more) in terminal sessions on your own machine. Those agents work for hours, then stop to ask: may I run this? which option? overwrite this file? Herdrup lets you answer, from your phone. It's a calm status board. When nothing needs you, the screen is quiet and you close it again. When an agent is waiting, it turns urgent, and you're one tap from the real terminal. WHAT YOU CAN DO • See every agent at a glance, grouped by what needs you, what's working, and what's idle • Jump into the live terminal: scroll the history, send keys, approve or reject the question it's blocked on • Get a push the moment an agent needs you, dies, or finishes. Nothing else • Message your agents with Gram: send a note, a file, or a short-lived API key, and delete it when you're done • Start a new agent: pick a folder, an agent, and a task HOW IT WORKS You run herdr on your own computer and it manages the agents in panes. Herdrup connects to it over SSH on your own network. No cloud in the middle, nothing public. Herdr is open source (github.com/jerryfane/herdr). Bring your own agents.
