A local-first mobile remote

Relay

Your coding agent, in your pocket.

Relay keeps your repositories, credentials, and session history on your Mac. Connect your iPhone to send work, choose a compatible coding harness and model source, and follow agent activity from anywhere. Your chosen model provider processes the requests your Mac sends to it.

How it works

A direct line to the work.

Relay keeps the Mac as the source of truth and gives you a focused remote control from your iPhone.

01 / PAIR

Connect your devices

Scan a fresh Mac pairing QR. Both devices connect outbound through an encrypted relay, so cellular works without a VPN. A reachable direct connection is preferred.

02 / WORK

Choose a thread and harness

Use an installed coding harness with local models, OpenRouter or Doubleword where compatible. Your Mac runs the tools and keeps provider credentials.

03 / REVIEW

Review from anywhere

Read the response, inspect diffs, and check test output before you approve the work.

Pricing

Start local. Upgrade when you need more.

Mac companion

Install the daemon first.

Relay routes requests from your Mac-side daemon. Source code and messages stay encrypted between your devices during cloud transit; provider keys remain on your Mac. Install the current server from source using Node.js, Ruby and Bundler. Follow the repository guide for setup, provider keys and encrypted pairing.
