MuxRelay Phone Terminal Dashboard
Approve and reply to agent sessions from your phone safely
- Problem
- When coding agents run inside cmux or tmux, developers who step away from the desk get blocked on permission prompts or questions. Someone built Muxer for Android with a relay to the local socket, proving that handling agent sessions away from the desktop is a real, frequent pain, but existing solutions cover only one tool and one platform.
- Solution
- Offer a lightweight relay (self-hosted or managed) that turns agent permission requests, questions, and plans from terminal sessions into phone notifications. Users can approve, reply, or stop sessions from their phone. Support common session sources like cmux, tmux, Claude Code, and Codex.
- Users
- Developers who heavily use coding agents and often step away from their workstations
- MVP
- Capture permission prompts from tmux sessions only; simple approve/deny/reply UI on iOS and Android; one-command self-hosted relay
- Revenue
- Open-source core with a managed relay subscription ($5/mo) or a one-time mobile Pro unlock ($15)
- Why now
- Coding agents moved from demos to daily use, sessions are longer and require more human approvals, while remote-control options remain fragmented and platform-limited; an indie can validate with one small server
