muxd Mobile App: Your AI Coding Agent in Your Pocket

Your AI coding agent just got portable. The muxd iOS app is now available on the App Store, letting you connect to your local muxd daemon from your phone. Same agent, same tools, same context — now in your pocket.

Why a Mobile App?

Coding happens at your desk. But ideas do not always cooperate with your schedule. You might be away from your computer when you realize the fix for that bug, want to check on a long-running task, or need to review a PR the agent just helped you draft.

The mobile app bridges that gap. Your muxd daemon keeps running at home, and your phone becomes a remote control for your coding workflow.

How It Works

The setup is designed to be as fast as possible:

  1. Start muxd on your machine with hub mode enabled
  2. Scan the QR code from the mobile app
  3. Start chatting with your agent from anywhere

No port forwarding. No VPN configuration. No network headaches. The hub coordinator handles the connection behind the scenes.

What You Can Do

The mobile app gives you full access to your agent conversations:

  • Continue existing sessions — Pick up where you left off at your desk
  • Start new conversations — Begin a fresh task while away from your computer
  • Review agent work — Check what changes were made while you were out
  • Send quick tasks — "Add a README section about the new API endpoint" works just as well from your phone

The agent has the same tools available. It can edit files, run commands, search the web, and commit changes — all triggered from a chat bubble on your phone.

Built for the Way You Work

The app is designed for short, focused interactions. You probably will not write a full feature from your phone. But you might:

  • Ask the agent to investigate a production error while you are in a meeting
  • Review a git diff the agent prepared before you get to your computer
  • Have the agent write a quick script you need in the moment
  • Check on the status of a long-running refactor

It is about keeping momentum when you cannot be at your keyboard.

Privacy First

muxd has always been local-first. The mobile app does not change that. Your code stays on your machine. Conversations flow through the hub coordinator, but nothing is stored in the cloud. Your source code, your API keys, your project structure — all of it remains local.

The app connects to your daemon. It does not upload your codebase to anyone.

Get Started

  1. Download the app from the App Store
  2. Set up hub mode on your machine (see the hub documentation)
  3. Scan and connect

Your coding agent is now as mobile as you are.

The Bottom Line

The best coding agent is the one you can reach when you need it. With the mobile app, your muxd agent is always a tap away. Whether you are away from your desk or just prefer typing on your phone, your AI pair programmer travels with you.
