Inyon

Inyon is a mobile application and tool to monitor, answer, and control terminal coding agents remotely.

Inyon connects your phone or browser to coding agents running in tmux on your own computers. It lets you watch sessions, answer permission requests and questions using buttons, and steer agents by switching models, setting goals, or reviewing work. The platform supports agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, GitHub Copilot, and Antigravity CLI. Users can connect via direct phone pairing, a self-hosted hub server, or standard SSH connections. The software is open source under the MIT license.
