Muxer lets users answer agent permission requests, questions and plans from notifications, reply to Claude Code, Codex and Pi chat sessions with text, voice, @ file mentions and photos, and run a live terminal with sticky modifier keys and local scrollback. The app also supports sharing text and links to an agent, organizing workspaces, managing cmux Cloud VMs and automations, and locking with fingerprint, face or screen lock.", "body_md": "Hey HN! As an avid user of cmux ([https://cmux.com/](https://cmux.com/)), I wanted a way to control terminal and agent sessions from my Android phone, so I built Muxer. The app talks to a tiny relay over HTTPS, that then talks to cmux through its local socket, and gives you to ability to:\n\n```\n  - Answer agent permission requests, questions and plans from a notification\n  - Reply to Claude Code, Codex and Pi chat sessions with text, voice, @ file mentions and photos\n  - Receive all cmux notification, with inline replies, bubbles and background delivery.\n  - Use a live terminal with sticky modifier keys and local scrollback\n  - Share text and links from any app to an agent\n  - Organize workspaces\n  - Manage cmux Cloud VMs and automations\n  - Lock the app with your fingerprint, face or screen lock\n```\n\nEnjoy, and let me know what you think!\nComments URL: [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50234491](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50234491)\n\nPoints: 1\n\n# Comments: 0", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-muxer-control-cmux-terminals-from-android", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/gantoine/muxer/", "published_at": "2026-10-25 18:25:22+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-10-25 18:42:32.624120+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-agents", "ai-tools", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["Muxer", "cmux", "Claude Code", "Codex", "Pi", "cmux Cloud", "Android"], "also_reported_by": [], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-muxer-control-cmux-terminals-from-android", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-muxer-control-cmux-terminals-from-android.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-muxer-control-cmux-terminals-from-android.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-muxer-control-cmux-terminals-from-android.jsonld"}}
