Inyon

Your coding agents, from your phone.
Watch, answer and steer Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot
and Antigravity CLI running in tmux on your own computers. Each keeps its own account.

Walk away from your laptop while an agent works. When it asks something, answer from your phone
with a tap. Sit back down and carry on in the same terminal, because nothing changed at the
keyboard.

See it work

Codex asks before it runs the tests. Answer from the overview, then watch the results come in.

On a phone, read the change an agent made, watch the tests pass and send the next instruction.

On a tablet, sessions sit in a tree by machine. Ending one says exactly what closes.

Why I built it

I run agents on a laptop and two servers, each signed in to a different account. Built-in remote
features follow one account at a time, so switching machines meant switching accounts.

Inyon never signs in anywhere. It drives the agent CLI already running in tmux, so every machine
keeps its own account, subscription or API key.

What you can do

• Read each session as a chat: replies, tool calls, diffs, plans and to-dos. The real terminal is
  one tap away.
• Answer permission requests, questions and menus with buttons, straight from the overview.
• See the model, context, cost and lines changed, plus the 5-hour and weekly plan limits.
• Switch model, effort and permission mode, or compact, clear and rewind.
• Follow queued messages, subagents and background shells, each shell with a real Stop.
• Type with / commands, @ file search and attached images. Drafts mirror into the terminal.
• Set up a new machine from the app: it installs tmux and the agents, then opens sign-in.

Inside a session the app takes on that agent's colours, logo and reply font. Everywhere else it
stays ink on silver, in light and dark.

How it works

Inyon reads tmux, the process tree and each agent's own session files, and types answers back with
tmux send-keys. The agents never know it's there. There are three ways to connect a machine:

Paired machines reach the phone through a free Cloudflare tunnel or your VPN, end-to-end
encrypted with Noise, so nothing needs an open port or an account.

Agent support

Agents in the docs has the details for each.

Why not Paseo, Happy or Claude Remote Control?

They're good tools, and each needs the agent started its own way: Paseo starts it from its
daemon, Happy when you run happy instead of claude, and Remote Control only from inside
claude itself. Inyon works the other way round. It picks up the agents already running in your tmux panes,
including the one you started an hour ago over SSH, and you can still start new ones from it.

What you give up: Paseo and Happy have iPhone apps and Inyon doesn't yet. Inyon also reads each
agent's transcript and screen, so a new agent release can break a reader until Inyon catches up.
Checked against their docs in October 2026.

Quick start

With the Android app, nothing is hosted anywhere:

1. Install the APK from the download page.

2. On each computer, run one line. It prints a QR code.

   curl -fsSL https://inyon.tech/get.sh | sh      # macOS, Linux
   irm https://inyon.tech/get.ps1 | iex           # Windows, PowerShell
   

   Or with npm: npm install -g @abhash-chakraborty/inyon, then inyon setup.

3. In the app, tap Add a computer and scan it.

From 0.19 that line installs one program, inyon, written in Rust: about 4 MB on Windows and
10 to 13 MB on Linux and macOS, where from 0.20 it also carries the Rust hub. It draws
the setup, the status screen and the pairing code, and runs the link to your phone. Only a hub
also fetches the engine (about 85 MB, with Bun inside) as inyon-engine. A 0.11 or 0.12 install
crosses over on its next update, and an older one needs the line above again.

From a browser, run a hub on a machine that stays on, then open the address it prints:

curl -fsSL https://inyon.tech/get.sh | sh -s -- --hub

The hub listens only on localhost until you choose a network. Running a hub covers
the rest, and SECURITY.md explains why it matters.

Docs

The full documentation is at inyon.tech/docs, with search. A few
places to start:

• Quick start and choosing a setup
• Android app: pairing, private networks, servers over SSH
• Running a hub and adding machines
• The inyon command: every command and flag
• Troubleshooting
• Security (SECURITY.md for reporting a vulnerability)
• Contributing: development setup, tests, adding an agent

Status

Inyon is young and moving fast. Linux, macOS and Windows (through psmux) work today. The Gemini,
OpenCode and Copilot readers are in beta, and the iOS app isn't built yet.

The name comes from 인연 (inyeon), the Korean word for a bond between people. 연 on its own also
means kite, which is the mark.

Support

Inyon is free and MIT licensed. If it saves you a walk back to your desk and you want to chip in,
GitHub Sponsors is the place. Bug reports and
pull requests help just as much.
