Show HN: Cosyra – Steer coding agents on your machines from your phone

Cosyra launched a standalone mobile platform that lets users steer AI coding agents on their own machines from a phone, priced at $30/mo for 8 GB RAM, with installation via a curl script for macOS and Linux. Cosyra says each account runs in its own hardware-virtualized VM with a separate kernel rather than a shared-kernel container, and that API keys are held in a dedicated managed key vault rather than its database. The company also offers a Claude connector, listed as in review, that hands off a conversation to a workspace via QR code, link, or short code.

No VPS to manage. No Linux distro to install. No SSH keys to wrangle.

In claude.ai, open Settings, then Connectors, and add Cosyra from the connector directory (listing in review). The same listing works in Claude Code and Claude Desktop.

Claude packs the conversation, code blocks and file paths intact, and hands back a QR code, a link, and a short code.

The workspace wakes with the whole chat already loaded in a terminal. Reply to it and the agent picks up where it stopped.

No app yet? Scan the code, install Cosyra, sign in, then enter the claim code. Full setup on the docs page.

Your repo and your API keys stay under your control.

Your workspace is hardware-virtualized, not a shared-kernel container. Every account gets its own VM with its own kernel, isolated from every other tenant.

TLS on every connection. Your storage and your keys are encrypted at rest.

API keys are never stored in our database. They sit in a dedicated managed key vault; the vault handles the secrets, we handle the mobile experience.

Four other ways to run AI coding agents from your phone, side by side.
