Skippr
Run your coding agents from your iPad.
Skippr is a native SSH and mosh client for iPad and iPhone. Start Claude Code or Codex on your machine, then follow it, answer it and review its changes from wherever you are. No account, no relay.

Features
- Sessions stay open through sleep, Wi‑Fi changes and tunnels, thanks to mosh.
- Skippr connects straight to your machine. Nothing sits in between.
- Your dev server opens beside the terminal and reloads when a file changes.
- You browse files, read diffs and stage changes right on the host.
- A push notification tells you when an agent finishes or needs an answer.
- Paste the Setup Prompt into your agent and it prepares the host for you.
- Your keys stay in the iOS Keychain, unlocked with Face ID.
- Split panes and workspaces keep several agents in view at once.
FAQ
- Do I need to install anything?
- Only standard tools: an SSH server and mosh-server. Skippr's Setup Prompt walks your AI agent through installing and configuring them for you, and authorizing your device's key. There is no Skippr daemon or account-side helper.
- Does it work without mosh?
- Yes. Skippr is fully usable over plain SSH. mosh adds session persistence, so terminals survive backgrounding and network changes, but every feature also works on a plain SSH connection.
- Where are my SSH keys stored?
- On your device only. Identities are ed25519 keypairs generated in the iOS Keychain and unlocked with Face ID, with an optional Secure Enclave hardened mode. Skippr has no backend, so keys are never uploaded anywhere.
- Which AI coding agents are supported?
- Any agent that runs in a terminal: Claude Code, Codex, and others. Skippr renders GPU accelerated terminal, so the agent behaves just like it does on your desktop.
- Does Skippr work on iPad and iPhone?
- Yes. Skippr is a native iOS and iPadOS app, built for both iPad and iPhone. You get the full multi-pane layout, with terminal, browser, editor and git side by side.
- Is there an Android version?
- Not today. Skippr is built natively for iPad and iPhone. Follow along for news on other platforms.
Your machine does the work. You keep an eye on it.
