Inyon0.17.5

Start here

Quick start

Install the Android app, pair your first computer and answer your first prompt.

This takes about two minutes and needs nothing hosted anywhere. You need an Android phone and a computer with tmux and at least one coding agent. If the computer has neither yet, the app can install them for you after pairing.

1. Install the app

Download the APK on your phone and open it:

Download for Android

Android asks once to allow installs from your browser. Later versions install over this one, and the app tells you when one is out.

2. Set up the computer

On macOS or Linux, open a terminal (on a server, your SSH session) and run:

shell
curl -fsSL https://inyon.abhashchakraborty.tech/get.sh | sh

On Windows, in PowerShell:

powershell
irm https://inyon.abhashchakraborty.tech/get.ps1 | iex

It downloads inyon, checks it against the release's checksums, installs it as a background service and prints a QR code. Install explains each step.

3. Pair

In the app, tap Add a computer, then Scan the code, and point the camera at the QR code. The app asks Pair with <computer>?; tap yes. The computer appears under Computers, with its tmux sessions on the overview.

If the terminal is on the same phone, you can't scan it. Tap Type a code instead and enter the ID and the 6-digit code printed under the QR code. Each code works once, for 10 minutes.

4. Start an agent

Start one the way you always do, in tmux:

shell
tmux new -s work
claude

Or start it from the app: tap +, pick the agent, the computer and a folder, and tap Start Claude Code (or whichever agent you picked).

The session appears on the overview within a few seconds. Tap it to read it as a chat.

5. Answer something

Ask the agent to do something that needs permission, such as running the tests. The session moves to the top of the overview under Needs you, with the agent's options as buttons. Tap one; the agent carries on, and the card says Sent.

  • Turn on notifications in Settings → Notifications, so you hear about prompts while the app is in the background. See Notifications.
  • Pair your other computers the same way, or reach a server over SSH. See Choose a setup.
  • Want a browser too? Run a hub on a machine that stays on.
