Pocketty - iPhone SSH terminal with agent alerts
Show HN: Pocketty – iPhone SSH terminal that pings you when an agent is blocked

Pocketty is a native SSH terminal for iPhone and iPad built for herdr users. It notifies you the moment an AI agent is blocked or done, then lets you jump straight into the exact Pane over SSH. The terminal runs Ghostty's engine with Metal rendering, supports hardware keyboards, and includes diffs by agent turn, a file browser, and localhost previews. Keys live in the Secure Enclave, notifications are end-to-end encrypted, and your terminal traffic never touches Pocketty's servers. Free for 14 days, then $99 once.
Your agents, in your pocket. Know the moment an agent is blocked or done. Answer it in a real terminal, right from your phone.

Was looking for something like this but stumbled upon herdr-web-ui [0] first. They seem to do the same thing, but herdr-web-ui is completely free and self hosted and sets up as a PWA with webpush support. Seems to work decently well and it’s under heavy development. Will have to try this too!

Nice! I did something like this running tailscale to my laptop with a TUI and it worked well for awhile. And then I realized I didn't want to be notified when my agents weren't working because I'd had enough.
Enjoy your nap traps! They don't last very long.

right after connecting to my workstation it says: “herdr is not installed on this host” while it clearly is. Running it in shell directly works, but it’s impossible to scroll inside herdr session like that. What exactly should I pay 99 for?
