{"slug": "show-hn-cosyra-steer-coding-agents-on-your-machines-from-your-phone", "title": "Show HN: Cosyra – Steer coding agents on your machines from your phone", "summary": "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.", "body_md": "### View your files\n\nBrowse your workspace in a native file viewer.\n\nWith the standalone mobile coding platform\n\n```\ncurl -fsSL https://cosyra.com/install.sh | bash\nRead https://cosyra.com/cli/skill.md and set up the Cosyra CLI on this computer. Verify the installation, then help me sign in and connect.\n```\n\nmacOS & Linux\n\nSwipe to explore\n\nNo VPS to manage. No Linux distro to install. No SSH keys to wrangle.\n\nIn 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.\n\nClaude packs the conversation, code blocks and file paths intact, and hands back a QR code, a link, and a short code.\n\nThe workspace wakes with the whole chat already loaded in a terminal. Reply to it and the agent picks up where it stopped.\n\nNo app yet? Scan the code, install Cosyra, sign in, then enter the claim\n      code. Full setup on the [docs page](https://cosyra.com/docs.html#handover).\n\nYour repo and your API keys stay under your control.\n\nYour workspace is hardware-virtualized, not a shared-kernel container. Every account gets its own VM with its own kernel, isolated from every other tenant.\n\nTLS on every connection. Your storage and your keys are encrypted at rest.\n\nAPI 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.\n\nWant the architecture?
