Saffron OpenCode vs Codetether

Your coding agent keeps working after you leave your desk. Saffron OC is a free, native iPhone and iPad client for a self-hosted OpenCode server, so the agent that is refactoring your project at home is one tap away from the train, the couch, or the coffee queue. STAY IN THE LOOP, NOT AT THE KEYBOARD • Pick up any session and read the transcript as it streams in • Send the next prompt with photos and files attached • Approve or deny the agent's permission requests and answer its questions the moment it asks, instead of finding it stalled an hour later • Switch model and agent per session, and run slash commands from your phone YOUR SERVER, YOUR NETWORK Saffron OC talks straight to your OpenCode server over your own network or VPN. There is no account to create, no relay in the middle and no telemetry. Server passwords stay in the iOS Keychain. Data Not Collected. BUILT FOR THE PHONE A native SwiftUI app with a dark, readable transcript, a composer that respects the keyboard, and full iPad support. It finds OpenCode servers on your local network automatically and remembers the ones you add. PART OF SAFFRON SUITE Saffron OC is free and sits alongside Saffron SPICE for your virtual machines and Saffron SSH for your servers. Together they put your whole home lab in your pocket. Saffron OC is an independent client and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the OpenCode project.

Codetether puts the opencode AI coding agent in your pocket. Run opencode on your computer, then follow the work from your phone: watch replies stream in, approve permissions, review diffs and send the next instruction from anywhere. Your code never leaves your machine. The app connects to your own opencode server — over your local network, Tailscale or an end-to-end encrypted relay — and no account is needed. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Follow sessions live: streaming replies, reasoning and tool calls • Approve or reject permissions from your phone, the lock screen or Apple Watch • Answer the agent's questions without leaving the app • Review every diff the agent produced, file by file, and revert changes • See what each session costs: usage by day, project and model • Live Activities and the Dynamic Island show every session at a glance • Browse and read your project files • Compose with @ files, / commands, ! shell and photo attachments • Keep several servers (LAN, Tailscale, relay) with automatic reconnect • Available in 33 languages SETUP On your computer, run: npx ocremote --pair A QR appears; scan it once and you are connected. Keep the terminal running while you work. No computer at hand? Tap “Try the demo” to explore the app with sample data — nothing is sent anywhere. opencode is an open source AI coding agent by its authors; this app is an independent client for it.
