Products that do what Paseo – Run coding agents from your phone, desktop, or terminal (FOSS) does
Hey HN, I built Paseo because i kept SSHing into tmux from my phone to check on agents while on walks, it worked but the UX was rough. I started building a voice-only app for agents but after dogfooding and iterating for months I ended up with this. Both Anthropic and OpenAI are working on versions of this but I didn't like them and I didn't want to be locked into their respective models. Paseo takes a different approach: a daemon runs on your machine and you connect to it from any device. your code never leaves your machine. - Works with Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, just launches their…

Hey HN, I'm Mo. I've been building Paseo, an open source environment for running Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode across desktop, mobile, web, and CLI. It started last September as a push-to-talk voice interface for Claude Code. I wanted to talk to an agent while going on walks. Then I wanted to see what it was doing. Then text it when I couldn't talk. Then review diffs, run multiple agents, and manage work across machines. After a lot of iteration, it turned into a broader environment. The basic model is: - A daemon runs on your machine (MacBook, desktop, VPS, etc.). - Clients connect to it…

Hey HN, I'm Mo. I'm building Paseo, a multi-platform interface for running Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode. The daemon runs on any machine (your Macbook, a VPS, whatever) and clients (web, mobile, desktop, CLI) connect over WebSocket (there's a built-in E2EE relay for convenience, but you can opt-out). I started working on Paseo last September as a push-to-talk voice interface for Claude Code. I wanted to bounce ideas hands-free while going on walks, after a while I wanted to see what the agent was doing, then I wanted to text it when I couldn't talk, then I wanted to see diffs and run…

Hi HN! I'm building Ano because I was tired of Slack's bloat and sluggishness, and never got any value out of their agent implementation. Ano is built local-first for speed (using Rocicorp Zero), focused on communication, and lets you use your own code agent as an assistant (Claude in my case, but it works with Codex too). I use the code agent to summarize anything unread (linking back to what matters), respond with context, and share data to and from connected tools (GitHub, Posthog, Attio, etc). Using your code agent for this might sound counter-intuitive, but to me it's the most powerful…

Hey HN, Over the past 10 months I've been using Claude Code heavily, and one limitation kept coming up: you can really only run one coding agent at a time. While one agent is refactoring something, the rest of the repo is basically blocked unless you start manually juggling branches and working directories. The core issue is that AI coding agents operate directly in your filesystem. If two agents run in the same working directory they quickly start stepping on each other’s changes. Git worktrees turned out to be a surprisingly good primitive for solving this. So I built ChatML, a Desktop app…

I built Relay around a simple idea: many of us have an unused PC server at home, or a VPS dedicated to AI-assisted coding, but the coding agents running there are still tied to that machine’s terminal, I just don't want to ssh/rdp into it every single time. Relay brings Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and Hermes into one interface that you can access from your phone, browser, or another computer. Sessions stay alive, so you can start work on one device and continue from another. You can upload/download files from the server, also if you are on subscription, you see your quota usage…

Hello all, I'm a software developer. Over the last few months more and more of my work has turned into using coding agents instead of typing the whole code myself. Usually a few claude sessions at once, sometimes codex, one per feature or per revealed bug. I ran them in a split terminal for a few weeks, and quickly spotted two main problems. The first is that I couldn't easily tell which agent was stuck waiting on me and which was still working, so I'd cycle through sessions and checking on them. The second one: agents sharing a single branch step on each other. Two of them could be editing…

I built this Plan and Solve (PS) agent because I struggled to build stable sequential tasks with LangChain and GPT3.5 turbo. After many failed attempts with LangChain's PS agent, I decided to build my own. I built the agent in a way that it acts as a workflow automation co-pilot rather than trying to play AGI. For example, the user has to tell the Lemon Agent which task needs to be solved and whether the suggested workflow automation is the right one for the task. I decided to go with a PS architecture since I consider the separation of responsibility a great way to increase the accuracy of…

Hi HN, AgentBox is an SDK for running coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode) inside sandboxes (Docker, E2B, Modal, Daytona, Vercel). One API. Swap the agent or the sandbox and your code doesn't change. Think of it as what the AI SDK did for LLMs, but for agent + runtime. Most wrappers call agents in non interactive mode (claude --print, codex exec). AgentBox instead boots each agent's native server inside the sandbox (Codex app-server over JSON-RPC, OpenCode serve over HTTP/SSE, Claude Code's SDK WebSocket transport) and drives it from the host, behaving like an interactive…

A friend and I built this as a side project to help us collaborate on files with our agents. Claude / Codex kept outputting .md and .html files which are great until we needed to share them, so we built this small website to help with that. Agent can either use an HTTP + Skill or an MCP which also uses MCP Apps to add widgets to Claude Desktop / Mobile chat. Would love any feedback and hopefully this helps someone else as it did us!
