Claude Code AI Agent vs AgentPanes

Your coding agent hits a decision it cannot make alone. Instead of sitting in a terminal waiting for you, it sends a push to your phone. You tap an answer. It keeps going. Notifex is a pager and a decision inbox for AI agents. Any agent that speaks MCP can reach you through it: Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Hermes, Cursor, n8n and others. What it does - Real questions, not just alerts. An agent can ask a single-select, multi-select or free-text question and wait for your answer. There is no timeout. - One tap to unblock. Your answer goes straight back to the agent and the run continues. - Messages too. Deploy finished. Tests are green. Status when you want it, questions when it matters. - Batches. A release checklist arrives as one notification you page through, not five separate pings. - One inbox per project. Switch between projects like mail. Every thread keeps its history. - Invite your team. Everyone gets the push, and the first answer wins. Setup One entry in your agent's MCP config: a URL and a project key. Nothing to install on your Mac. No daemon, no bridge, no pairing. Keys are per project and you can revoke them. What it is not Notifex does not mirror your terminal and does not need access to your machine. It carries the questions your agent chooses to ask, and the answers you send back. Free on iPhone.

Your agents keep working when you step away. AgentPanes brings their terminals within reach. Connect to your own computers over SSH and find agents running in Herdr and tmux. Open a specific agent, switch between agents from the terminal, or start a normal SSH connection when you need a shell. FIND YOUR WORK - View supported agents across the machines you choose. - Sort by observed activity, pin important agents, and see output changes since your last visit. New output is not a claim that a task has finished. - Switch agents without returning to the main list. A TERMINAL BUILT FOR YOUR PHONE - Use terminal keyboard controls, text selection and supported links. - Scroll terminal output and adjust text size. - Keep separate saved zoom settings for tmux and Herdr/normal SSH. YOUR MACHINES, YOUR CONNECTION - Connect directly over SSH; no AgentPanes account or server-side AgentPanes installation is required. - Authenticate with a password or an imported OpenSSH Ed25519 private key. - Review the host fingerprint and per-machine Herdr/tmux permissions. - Use reachable IP addresses or hostnames. Tailscale hosts require a working Tailscale connection; host-led Tailscale SSH approval is supported. - Protect access with the app lock and device authentication. OPTIONAL NOTIFICATIONS AND DICTATION - Enable reply notifications per machine. This installs a helper on that machine and sends notification data through the AgentPanes relay, Firebase and Apple. Standard SSH connections do not require the notification service. - Dictate editable English text on supported devices using on-device recognition. Audio is not saved or uploaded by AgentPanes. AgentPanes is free to download. You supply your own SSH-accessible machines, agents and any third-party service accounts. Herdr or tmux must already be installed on the machines where you want to discover their sessions. Questions or a bug to report? Find Help & support in the app or email support@agentpanes.com.
