Onepilot

Onepilot is a mobile SSH client and agentic IDE for iPhone that maintains persistent terminal sessions and provides monitoring for remote servers.

Onepilot is a mobile-first agentic IDE designed for managing servers directly from an iPhone. It functions as a full terminal emulator that keeps shell sessions running on the host, ensuring that connections remain active even when the app is backgrounded or closed. The app supports monitoring for CPU, memory, disk, and network usage, sending notifications when anomalies occur. Users can observe coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode in real-time, reviewing their steps and tool calls. It also facilitates agent deployment, file management, and Git operations such as commits and pushes. Connections are established by scanning a code on the host, which avoids manual IP entry or key pasting.
