Everything between you and your AI coding agents
Cockpit connects to the hosts where your agents run, keeps their sessions alive and gives you one place to watch, answer and steer them – on the desktop, in the browser and on your phone.
Sessions and chat
Every agent runs in a persistent tmux session on its host. Cockpit finds them, shows their state and renders each one as a chat you can actually read.
-
Session browser
Hosts, tmux sessions, windows and panes with the detected agent: working, waiting for input or idle.
-
Formatted chat
Markdown, collapsed tool calls, thinking and token usage, read from the agent's own transcript.
-
The terminal at hand
Interactive dialogs stay in the real terminal, one click from the chat.
-
Images and attachments
Drag and drop, paste from the clipboard or pick a file – and see previews in the transcript.
-
Continue with another agent
Hand a conversation over to another agent with a handoff document, both shown as one thread.
-
Prompts are never lost
Drafts survive reconnects and restarts, and a failed send puts your prompt back into the input.
Hosts, prepared for you
Point Cockpit at a machine and it does the rest. You approve only the steps that need
sudo.
-
SSH, local shell or WSL2
Remote Linux servers, jump hosts and pinned host keys, your own computer, or WSL2 on Windows.
-
Automatic setup
tmux, agent CLIs, hooks, cockpit-proxy and the environment, kept up to date on every connect.
-
Files and editor
Browse, edit and upload files on the host, with conflict detection instead of blind overwrites.
-
Automatic reconnect
Network gone? Cockpit reconnects; the agents never noticed.
Your AI accounts, pooled
Sign in to your providers once, in Cockpit. Every host gets your enabled accounts as short-lived tokens – no copying of credentials, no per-host logins.
-
Subscriptions, API keys and local models
Claude Pro and Max, ChatGPT for Codex, Gemini API keys, Google accounts for Antigravity, and Ollama, vLLM or LiteLLM endpoints.
-
Limits handled for you
When one account reaches its limit, cockpit-proxy on the host moves on to the next one.
-
Model policy
Choose which models a project may use and get protected against silent model substitution.
-
Verify now
Check an account's sign-in and its delivery to every connected host in one click.
Cockpit Web Pro
The same sessions in any browser and on your phone at cockpitai.dev/app. Your
host opens an outgoing relay, so there is nothing to expose to the internet.
-
Full chat and terminal
Answer waiting agents, send images, run the interactive terminal with a key bar.
-
Push notifications
Know when an agent is waiting, with quiet hours and "only when the desktop is not running".
-
Projects and accounts
Start projects, open new sessions, switch and verify AI accounts from anywhere.
-
Installable
Add it to your home screen and use it like an app.
Standalone agents
Save a piece of work and let an agent do it without anyone watching. Cockpit keeps the result, the transcript and the token usage.
-
By hand or on a schedule
"Every weekday at 7:00, summarise the open branches" – on your own host.
-
Webhooks and Jira Pro
Start a run when something happens and comment the result back on the Jira task.
Project sharing Pro
Invite another Cockpit user into one of your projects. They see its sessions, chats and files in the role you give them – never your other projects, hosts, AI accounts or vault.
Control and safety
-
Run mode per host
Keep the CLIs' own confirmations, or switch a trusted host to Turbo.
-
MCP servers per project
Manage MCP servers once for Claude Code, Codex and Antigravity alike.
-
Agent memory
Standing instructions on three levels, delivered to every agent you use.
-
End-to-end encrypted vault
Secrets sync between your computers; the server cannot read them.
Desktop details
-
Layouts
Chats and terminals side by side in saved, dockable layouts in one window.
-
Notification history
Every toast and error can be found again, linked to its session, host or account.
-
Export
Export a chat to PDF and copy formatted replies and tables.
-
One-click updates
Signed releases, installed silently on Windows, Linux and macOS.
Coming next
What we are building now. No dates yet – it ships when it is ready.
-
AWS workers
Run agents on cloud machines you order from Cockpit, pay-as-you-go or prepaid, always settled from your wallet balance; a choice of base instance sizes.
