iPhone
crystl for iPhone is the companion to crystl for Mac, the desktop app that runs your AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex) in a terminal — each in its own git worktree on its own branch, so many run in parallel with no conflicts and no waiting. Keep the whole fleet working at once and get a notification the moment any agent needs an approval or has a question, then reply, approve, or answer from your pocket without heading back to your desk.
Pair to your Mac in seconds by scanning a QR code, then take the controls:
• NOTIFICATIONS: get pinged the moment an agent needs an approval, raises a question, or finishes — so you can run many agents at once and only step in when one needs you.
• APPROVALS: when an agent asks to run a tool, approve or deny it — allow once, allow always, or deny.
• QUESTIONS: answer the questions your agent raises, with its suggested options one tap away.
• SEND: type into any session, reply to your agent, and drive a TUI with a terminal key row (enter / esc / ctrl-c / arrows / tab).
• VOICE: dictate to your agent instead of typing — talk it through the next step hands-free.
• PHOTO: send an image straight from your camera or library — a screenshot, a whiteboard sketch, a design to build from.
• QUEST: chat with and steer a multi-agent party from one screen when several agents work together.
• MERGE: when an isolated agent's work is done, merge its branch back into main with one tap — no need to open your Mac.
• LIVE SCREEN: watch the real terminal output of any session on a clean monospaced canvas.
• TRANSCRIPT: read the conversation as structured turns — your prompts, the agent's replies, tool calls, and their results.
crystl for iPhone pairs with the Mac app — you'll need crystl running on a Mac on your local network to connect. It's a supervisor's remote control, not a standalone coding tool.
Free to use, with nothing to buy in the app. Connect to your own Mac over your local network and every feature works at no cost.
Requires the free crystl desktop app for Mac, available at crystl.dev.
