Cipher Beta

Text the agents on your computer.
From anywhere.

Available now for Mac.

Download on the App StoreYou’ll need an iPhone (iOS 16.4 or later) and an Apple silicon Mac (macOS 13.5 or later) with a coding agent installed and signed in. Windows, Linux and Android are planned.

How it works

  1. curl -fsSL https://cipherflow.dev/install.sh | sh

    Install

    Run one command on your Mac.

  2. Pair

    With your iPhone and Mac on the same Wi-Fi, open the app and follow the steps.

  3. Touch grass

    Keep your agents working from anywhere, right from your phone.

What it does

  • It pings you.

    Your phone gets a notification when your agent needs an answer, finishes a task, or can’t finish. You don’t have to watch Terminal.

  • $ agy$ claude$ codex$ copilot$ grok$ muse$ opencode

    Works with the agent you already use.

    Cipher uses the agent you’re already signed in to on your Mac. You don’t need a separate Cipher account or an API key.

  • Run several projects at once.

    Give each project its own conversation. Your Mac runs up to three at once; the rest wait their turn.

  • Pick up a conversation where you left off
  • Stop work from your phone
  • Send your agent files and photos

Works with

  • Antigravity
  • Claude Code
  • Codex
  • GitHub Copilot
  • Grok Build
  • Muse Code
  • opencode

Privacy

End-to-end encrypted. Messages between your phone and Mac pass through our relay, which can’t read them. Anything not picked up is deleted within 6 minutes. The relay does handle some security and delivery data; the privacy policy says exactly what, and for how long.

No account. No API key. Your agents run on your Mac under your own login, with the provider accounts you already have, and reach their provider, GitHub and the internet as they do at your desk.

FAQ

Is it free?
Yes, it’s free. The free version has daily limits.
What do I need?
An iPhone (iOS 16.4 or later) and an Apple silicon Mac (macOS 13.5 or later) with a coding agent installed and signed in.
Which agents does it work with?
Antigravity, Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, Grok Build, Muse Code and opencode.
Do my phone and Mac need the same Wi-Fi?
Only to pair; after that, your phone reaches your Mac from anywhere. A VPN or a shared network can also pass the pairing check, so always compare the four words on both screens before you tap Yes.
How often do I pair?
Once: it stays paired through updates, restarts and new networks until you unpair on the Mac or in the app. One phone per Mac; pairing a new phone unpairs the old one.
Why does my Mac ask for Touch ID when I pair?
So only you can pair a phone with your Mac, and it asks only then. macOS checks your Touch ID or password itself; Cipher only learns whether it passed.
Why does macOS show pop-ups naming my agent?
Each agent runs as responsible for itself, so macOS asks in the name of the agent’s program when it needs files, folders, other apps’ data, the camera or the microphone. The pop-up usually names the program itself, for example “codex”; for some agents it names what runs them, such as “node”. The first time an agent needs your Desktop, Documents or Downloads, macOS asks once for that agent and folder and remembers your answer. Allow only if it fits a task you asked for; if you’re not sure, choose Don’t Allow. A pop-up naming Cipher is Cipher’s own, such as Touch ID when you pair.
What if macOS says my agent would like to access data from other apps?
Its file search reached another app’s folder. Don’t Allow is safe, and Cipher keeps working.
How do I restart Cipher on my Mac?
In Terminal, run cipher to restart Cipher.
Does my code leave my Mac?
It can: your agent may send code, messages, and the files and photos you send it to its own provider, push to GitHub or use the internet, just as it does at your desk. Cipher keeps no copy of your code on its servers: it carries your conversation between your phone and Mac end‑to‑end encrypted, and saves files and photos you send in Downloads/Cipher on your Mac.
What if my Mac goes to sleep?
Cipher can keep your Mac awake while you’re away; on battery, it lets it sleep at 10% so the battery doesn’t run flat. A closed laptop on battery still sleeps, and work pauses while the Mac sleeps.
Can I use Cipher on Windows, Linux or Android?
Not yet. Leave your email in the form below and we’ll let you know when it’s ready.
