Shepherdr

Herd your AI coding agents

iPhone · iOS 18+ · Coming soon to the App Store

Your coding agents keep working while you’re away. Shepherdr tells you the moment one needs you, so you can approve it, steer it or start a new one from your phone.

A companion for Herdr, the terminal workspace for coding agents. It connects to all of your machines at once, over your own private Tailscale network.

Features

Never miss a blocked agent

  • Get a notification the moment an agent asks for permission, finishes, or hits an error
  • Approve or deny right from the notification, without opening the app
  • Blocked agents jump to the top, so nothing sits waiting

Every agent, every machine

  • Agents from your laptop, desktop and servers in one list, grouped by what needs you
  • See each agent’s status, workspace and folder at a glance
  • Machines that go offline are flagged, with one tap to reconnect

Steer from anywhere

  • Read an agent’s screen and send it a prompt
  • Quick keys for answering prompts: Esc, Enter, arrows, 1/2/3, y/n, Ctrl-C
  • Stop an agent that’s heading the wrong way

A real terminal in your pocket

  • Attach to any agent’s live terminal, in full color, with a keyboard
  • Works with full-screen agent interfaces
  • Watch-only mode when you just want to look

Start agents on the go

  • Pick a machine, a workspace, a folder and an agent, then give it a first task
  • New agents appear in Herdr on your desktop too

Private by design

  • Talks only to a small open-source bridge you run on one of your machines
  • Reached over your Tailscale network; nothing is exposed to the internet
  • No accounts, no analytics, no data collected

What you’ll need

  • Herdr running on your machines
  • Tailscale on your computers and iPhone
  • herdr-bridge running on one machine (free and open source; setup takes about 15 minutes)
