Three commands to your first agent
npm i -g --ignore-scripts \
@trymuxr/cli@latest
muxr
muxr link
Install the app on your phone, then open the link muxr link prints on it (or scan its QR): with Tailscale on both, the app pairs in one tap, no code to type. Off a tailnet, muxr pair --code shows a one-use QR and two words to compare. Setup picks how your phone reaches the computer, installs Herdr if it is missing, and changes nothing until you press Enter on that plan.

Why muxr
Answering an agent is not the hard part. Reaching it is.
| How you answer an agent today | With muxr |
|---|
| Leave the laptop open, check it when you think of it | The ask arrives as a notification |
| A plain terminal over SSH on the phone | The agents and their asks first, one tap to answer |
| A hosted cloud dev box, usually paid by the month | Your own computers, self-hosted, end-to-end encrypted |
| Mirror the whole desktop to the phone | The terminal at your font size, not a video of your monitor |
| Keep up with the agent in a chat app | The same session, with its scrollback and diffs |
muxr is built on Herdr, the workspace manager for coding agents, and any agent you run in a Herdr pane is visible here.
What you get
- See the whole herd. Agents grouped by workspace and computer, with live terminal previews and an alert when one needs you or finishes.
- Keep the real terminal. Scrollback, sticky modifier keys and workspace tabs; on supported approval prompts, a numbered answer is one tap.
- Start something new. Launch installed agents, shells and worktrees, or pick up an existing session and attach a prompt.
- Look before you ship. Browse files, read diffs and download artifacts, with progress and resume after a lost connection.
- Say it instead. On-device prompt dictation in the native app, plus native realtime voice. Voice setup →
- Watch what it costs. Usage per provider and tab: token trends, top models and the limits each plan reports.
- Make it feel like yours. Light and dark themes, terminal text sizes, gestures and notifications, on Android, iOS or the self-hosted web app.
Proof, and how to check it
No customer logos to borrow and no quotes to invent, so here is what you can check for yourself:
- Every build can be checked before you install it. The download page publishes each APK with its SHA-256 (stable · nightly), and each release carries the binary's
signer.txt and native-provenance.json.
- The suite that gates the release is in the repo.
yarn run check starts a real relay and host, drives live Herdr conformance, and runs the flow suite CI runs; the CI badge above is that lane's result on main.
- Releases are frequent and dated by GitHub, not by us — the releases page is the full record, nightlies included.
- The encryption is written down. The relay only routes encrypted frames; pairing, approval and device revocation happen on your machines, and a revoked device loses its link.
- The pictures are the product. Every capture here is the real app against a real agent run in a demo repo; the loop above is an unedited recording with only the quiet waits shortened.
Your computers stay yours
The computer side is Apache-2.0 and self-hosted: one muxr install on your machine, a relay that can run beside it or on your own server, and a phone app that pairs to it. Nothing about your agents, prompts or files is sent to us. Self-hosting → · Privacy → · Report a bug →
Known limits
- The Android and iOS apps ship through store testing channels, so access can wait on review or tester capacity; the direct APK does not.
- A nightly CLI and a nightly phone app must be the same night; a stable phone pairs with a stable CLI.
- The Linux desktop app is an AppImage, and start-at-login needs FUSE 2. Install options →
