Codync

Codync is an open-source AI developer tool that lets you run and manage multiple coding agents as named bots on your own computer and control them remotely from a phone, Mac, Linux machine, or terminal. It positions itself as a self-hosted alternative to commercial platforms like Grok Bot and Muse, and it supports Claude Code, Codex, and 40+ agents. You message your coding agents like teammates: each bot has persistent memory and its own instructions, and you can put several of them in a group chat where they collaborate and respond in turn. Code changes come through approval cards so you decide per edit whether to allow once, always allow, or deny. Beyond text, the app supports remote screen control and even voice calls with a bot, plus iPhone widgets and Live Activities and a notification system for bot status. Communication between phone and computer is end-to-end encrypted, which fits its privacy-focused, local-execution stance. It is free and MIT licensed with no subscription, paid tier, or account required. BestAIFor readers who run several AI agents and want to drive them from their phone without a hosted service will find the group-chat and approval-card model the core draw.
