About

Collie Remote

Features
Read full description

Collie Remote is the companion app for Collie, the coding agent that runs on your own computer. Collie writes a reproduction, runs it, and only calls a job done when an assertion it executed has passed. This app lets you watch that happen, and start it, from wherever you are. • See what your machine is working on — the reproduction, the edits, the verdict. • Start a run from your phone; the work happens on your computer. • Redirect a run that is going the wrong way instead of waiting for it to finish. • Tell the computer what to do in plain words — open an app, lock the screen, play something. • Read the code it changed, so you can judge the change rather than take it on trust. • Send a photo of the thing that is broken. HOW IT CONNECTS There is no Collie account and no Collie cloud. The app talks to Collie running on your own machine — either directly over your network, or through an end-to-end encrypted relay when you are away from it. Pairing is one scan plus a number you confirm on the computer itself, so nothing gets in without someone at the keyboard agreeing. You need Collie on your Mac or PC first: https://collie.run Open source: https://github.com/colliehq/collie

About

Oh Pi App

Features
Read full description

Oh Pi App brings your self-hosted AI development workspace to iPhone and iPad. Connect to your own ohpi-gateway directly or through an encrypted SSH tunnel, then work with your files and AI tools wherever you are. • Chat with your configured AI provider and follow streaming responses, reasoning and tool results. • Create, resume, rename and delete conversations across multiple workspaces and servers. • Browse remote files and inspect code, images and tool output. • Schedule tasks and manage their execution from your device. • Configure provider credentials on your server and choose models for each conversation. • Use SSH password or private-key authentication with server fingerprint confirmation. • Enjoy layouts for iPhone and iPad, light and dark appearance, and English and Simplified Chinese. A compatible server and your own AI provider access are required for normal use. You can connect to an existing gateway or install one on a machine you control using SSH. AI requests and tools run on your configured server; provider charges and terms may apply. Before sharing content with an AI provider, the app explains the data being sent and requests your permission. The Oh Pi developer does not operate a conversation relay server.
