Your terminals, in your pocket.

Every terminal and agent on your phone. Answer Claude when it asks, type into any terminal, and get an alert on a locked phone. Your own PC serves it over your network: no account, no cloud, no app store.

Set it up Another PC How it works
The phone app: claude asks to run a PowerShell command, above the acme-api and web-dashboard terminals, with the Terminals, Notes, Notifications and Settings tabs
A terminal on the phone, live, with the key bar
What it does
The answer sheet: Claude wants to use Bash for npm run migrate -- --env staging, with Approve, Reject and Reply

Answer your agents

Approve, reject or reply when Claude asks. The card goes as soon as you answer.

The api server terminal on the phone: its dev server output, and the esc, tab, ctrl, arrow, paste and snip keys

Every terminal, live

Open any terminal and type into it. It takes the phone's size while you look and gets its own back when you leave.

The Snippets sheet over a terminal, listing saved commands such as Migrate database and Git status

Good to know
  • Off until you turn it on. Then it listens only on your private network address, never the internet.
  • Only your phones. Everything is HTTPS with Termilly's own certificate, and only paired phones get in. Remove one in Settings › Remote › Manage.
  • Typing is yours to allow. Off until you turn on Allow typing; terminals tagged prod ask first.
  • Private alerts. They go through Apple's or Google's push service, encrypted end to end. Hide details keeps names off the lock screen.
