Orchestrator.Inc vs ValetFS

Orchestrator is the companion app for Orchestrator, the desktop workspace for agent-driven development. Your agents keep working while you step away from your desk. AO Mobile keeps you in the loop see what every worker is doing, answer the ones that are blocked, and keep work moving from your phone. REQUIRES THE Orchestrator DESKTOP APP AO Mobile is a thin client. It connects directly to Agent Orchestrator running on your own computer, over your local network or your Tailscale network. There is no cloud service and no account to create. Your code, conversations, and repositories never leave your machine. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Live Kanban — every worker session on one board, grouped by what needs your attention: working, needs you, in review, ready to merge. • Get notified when an agent stops — a push notification arrives the moment a session needs your input, and tapping it opens that exact conversation. • Chat with any agent — full conversation history, streaming responses, approvals, model and provider switching, file attachments, and voice input for when typing is impractical. • Follow pull requests — open and draft PRs with their checks, CI status, and review state. • Talk to the orchestrator — your project-level planning agent, for thinking through direction and delegating new work. • Drop into the terminal — attach to a session's live terminal when you need the raw view. • Preview running work — open a worker's browser preview to see what it built. BUILT FOR TRUST The desktop's connection to your phone is opt-in and off by default. When you enable it, AO opens a separate local listener protected by a rotating password, and pairing happens by scanning a QR code shown on your desktop. Turning it off closes the connection immediately. GETTING STARTED 1. Install Agent Orchestrator on your Mac, Windows, or Linux machine. 2. Turn on Connect Mobile in the desktop app. 3. Scan the pairing QR code with this app. Agent Orchestrator is open source. Learn more at aoagents.dev.

Agents that read a repository issue, a web page or a tool description have been talked into reading credentials out loud. The key was never the target — the file it sat in was. A key written into a dotfile, an environment variable or a CI runner is readable by everything on that machine, forever, long after the job is done. ValetFS is the other way round. Your secrets live on your iPhone, in the Keychain, behind Face ID. When a tool on your computer needs one, ValetFS lends it — into memory, never to disk — and takes it back when you are finished. HOW IT WORKS • Install the ValetFS daemon on your computer and start it. It prints a QR code. • Scan the code with the app. The two are now paired. • Push a secret from your phone. It appears on the computer as an ordinary file that any tool can read — but it exists only in memory. • Close the app, and a grace timer starts. When it expires the daemon unmounts and wipes itself. Nothing is left behind on disk. END-TO-END ENCRYPTED Secrets are encrypted on your phone for one specific daemon, using X25519 key agreement and ChaCha20-Poly1305. The relay that carries them sees only ciphertext. We cannot read your secrets, and neither can anyone operating the infrastructure in between. BUILT FOR AGENTS Provision a session from the app and hand an AI agent a single connection key. The agent installs the daemon and joins — and you keep the authority to revoke it. One tap forgets the session, and a still-running daemon locks itself, unmounts, and wipes its memory. WHY NOT A CLOUD SECRETS MANAGER Federated identity solves this for workloads that run inside a cloud — they already have an identity to exchange for a short-lived token. Your laptop, your home server and the container your agent runs in have none, so they fall back to a file on disk. ValetFS gives that machine the thing it was missing: an authority that can say no, and that lives somewhere the machine cannot reach. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING There is no sign-up and no login. No analytics SDK, no advertising, no behavioural tracking. The app is a client for infrastructure you can inspect — the daemon and the relay are both open source. REQUIRES A COMPUTER ValetFS is a companion to the ValetFS daemon, which runs on macOS or Linux and is a free open-source download. The app on its own has nothing to pair with.
