adamisnotroman··on Goodbye Claude, Hello Pi
Yes, I'm the same. As for any feature that CC has, you can build it with one prompt with the Pi extension system. For remote control you can just use Cosyra (my app) or one of the other SSH mobile clients.
adamisnotroman··on Goodbye Claude, hello Pi
Just a heads up, I build Cosyra, a mobile terminal app, so this problem is something I've been considering a lot. For the SSH side, mosh fixes most of it. And for the tmux sessions I use a leader terminal who does all the juggling for me. Remote control is great, but then I'm completely locked into using Claude which, for me, does not work.
adamisnotroman··on Show HN: Cosyra – Steer coding agents on your machines from your phone
Hi HN, I'm Adam, I built Cosyra.

I wanted a minimal UI to steer and run coding agents from my many, many computers/VMs. Cosyra is an iOS and Android app plus a small CLI for your Mac or Linux box.

How it works:

- `curl -fsSL https://cosyra.com/install.sh | bash` installs one binary to ~/.local/bin. - `cosyra remote start` shows a QR code or a pairing code. You scan or type it in the app, then confirm the matching number on the computer. There's no sign-in on the computer itself. - Terminals are tmux sessions (tmux 3.3+). If you run herdr, its terminals show up too. (Rex and herdr-core coming soon!) - Terminal traffic is end-to-end encrypted, so our servers can't read it. The phone's identity key lives in the iOS Keychain or Android Keystore and never leaves the device. The computer's key is an owner-only file, similar to an SSH key. Every session uses fresh ephemeral keys for forward secrecy. - The phone gets a terminal and a chat view. Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode and more all usable from both. Uses your existing subscriptions. I do not resell tokens. - On a Mac it also streams the iOS Simulator to the phone.

Tradeoffs: the computer has to be on, so Cosyra will keep it awake while remote control is running. You need the app and a Cosyra account to pair.

Pairing your own machines is free. There's an optional hosted cloud workspace (Core $20/mo, Pro $30/mo) for when you don't want to leave a computer on or if you need extra compute on the fly.

Almost all of it was built with Claude Code and Codex. The long-term goal is shipping software 0 to 100 from the phone. I am currently drinking the koolaid and living the lifestyle and 3 days a week I do not touch my computer except to make sure it's powered on.

I'd like to hear whether you can envision a future where you only use your computer for leisure and games and not for steering agents. Also, I emphasized the smoothness and premium feel of the app, so I appreciate any criticisms or suggestions in that area.

I built a mobile client for agents called Cosyra. For this use case I'd say use chat to prompt an agent because it will queue the message for when you have internet and sends it as an https request so it's pretty lightweight. You can check it out here: cosyra.com
adamisnotroman··on Herdr has released native app
have you tried cosyra or moshi before?
adamisnotroman··on Herdr has released native app
true, BUT mosh does have its tradeoffs. I actually prefer using tdp but using jwt for auth and websocket for transfer. Best of both worlds
adamisnotroman··on Herdr has released native app
the poor experience on a crappy network connection is an SSH problem unfortunately

oh no what will the AEO companies do now?
adamisnotroman··on Herdr has released native app
try cosyra mobile. Its the best mobile client for herdr. It uses websocket and is has a really smooth ux.
adamisnotroman··on Herdr has released native app
I think they are all planning to make money on selling cloud or inference
adamisnotroman··on Herdr has released native app
Yep it’s awesome. I’m going to integrate the core engine to my mobile app so I can control it remotely.

Hello Onavo. Cosyra.com is not venture backed and not a ghostty wrapper! Lets you remote control all your agents from your phone without SSH.
adamisnotroman··on AI-generated posters don’t have to be horrible
Remember back in the day when people used to insult human-made art by saying it was "derivative"? Yeah, this isn't an AI era phenomenon. I think some of these posters are good.
adamisnotroman··on I built non-autoregressive decision models with RL a year ago
It seems like in today's day and age, whoever comes to market with a new tech second is usually winning. It's kind of unfortunate, as Laya is actually pretty cool. I think it will catch on considering its open weight and self hostable. It's easy to host on a home lab compared to the 1T parameter behemoths.
adamisnotroman··on Ask HN: Codex conversations failing to converge across devices?
I personally have not been experiencing this, and I use the same Codex account on three different machines. Hope you get this resolved soon.. Sounds annoying.

What led you to use Firecracker over something like Kata containers?
adamisnotroman··on Show HN: Cosyra – run cloud coding agents from your phone
First, it's terminal first, meaning you can use your existing subscriptions and take advantage of any and all the different provider CLI's.

Second, it's a persistent workspace so you aren't locked in to whatever features the provider's build. Instead you can really drive your own workflow as you see fit.

adamisnotroman··on Kimi K3 Is Competitive with Fable; Kimi K3 and Fable Is SoTA
I wonder if Fable now is actually better than the Mythos in March and if it's actually the same model. Could just be more Anthropic shenanigans.

If only to put some pressure on american labs to bring those costs down
adamisnotroman··on Kimi K3 Is Competitive with Fable; Kimi K3 and Fable Is SoTA
Technically, "open weight" but yeah

I didn't realize that OpenRouter had a mark up. Is it a flat mark up across the board or depending on the model?
