It provides a terminal-like environment optimized for mobile, enabling users to review code, run commands, and interact with AI agents on the go. With a freemium model, Port22 is designed for developers who need flexibility and remote access to their coding workflows without being tied to a desktop.

  • Cadre.rocks — A local board for orchestrating agents rather than a phone client.

You will find each in the AI tools directory.

Use cases

Answering an agent while away

Unblocking a run that is waiting on a decision is the strongest case, because the alternative is waiting hours.

Approving an obvious change

A small, verifiable edit can be reviewed and merged from a phone without much risk.

Checking on a long job

Seeing whether a refactor finished and what it produced is useful without opening a laptop.

Port22: questions worth answering

What is Port22?

A mobile environment for AI coding tools: it connects to your projects and runs assistants such as Claude Code or Codex from a phone, with a terminal interface built for a small screen.

Who should be using Port22?

Developers who want to review a change, answer an agent or unblock something while away from a desk.

How much does Port22 cost?

A free tier is included, and paid tiers go further.

What is the honest limitation?

Reading a diff on a phone is worse than reading it on a monitor, and an agent that needs supervision gets less of it. It is genuinely useful for answering a question or approving something obvious, and a bad place to review a substantial change.

Worth knowing beforehand

Do not review real changes on it

A phone screen hides the context a diff needs. Merge from a desk.

Check where credentials live

Running agents from a phone means the phone holds access. Confirm what it stores and how it is protected.
