iPhone and iPad SSH terminal that alerts you when a coding agent is blocked or done

SSH terminal app for iPhone and iPad, made for herdr. It shows each agent's live state (working, needs you, done), opens the exact Pane that is blocked in a full-screen terminal over SSH, and sends real keystrokes (Return, Esc, Ctrl, arrows) so you can answer an agent from your phone. Agent alerts are sealed on your computer with HPKE so only your phone can read them; the relay and Apple only see ciphertext, and the terminal itself connects directly to your computer with no Pocketty server in the path. Also shows per-turn, whole-session or uncommitted diffs (needs the Pocketty daemon on the host), a file browser, localhost previews over SSH, and works as a plain SSH, tmux or zellij terminal without herdr. The site lists Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Grok, Qwen Code, Kimi Code, Devin, Hermes and Antigravity among the agents herdr knows. Your SSH key is created in the Secure Enclave; the app has no sign-up, no email and no analytics. iPhone and iPad only (no Android yet).

Best for: Developers who run Claude Code, Codex or other agents on a Mac or Linux box and want to unblock them from an iPhone

Score breakdown

Why this score: A focused, privacy-minded answer to a real problem (an agent blocked while you are away from your desk), with end-to-end sealed alerts, direct SSH and no account. It scores modestly because it is a companion to coding agents rather than one, is iPhone/iPad only, needs a paid $99 licence after a 14-day trial, works best with herdr and Tailscale, and shows no public source repo, release history or usage numbers to judge momentum from. We have not run it hands-on.

Based on desk research of official pricing pages and docs; see methodology.
