Kelpie is herdr on iOS and iPadOS: the real herdr TUI over SSH, full screen on the iPad and iPhone, free and open source. Public TestFlight beta: https://testflight.apple.com/join/AkJxAbnJ Why: the moment I leave the desk I can't see my agents. One stops on a yes or no at 9pm and it is still sitting there at 8am. I didn't want a second interface to learn on the phone; I wanted the one I already use. None of it would exist without Heeler, the open-source iOS client for herdr: SSH to the herdr socket, pairing, the push plugin and the encrypted notification relay are all Heeler's work an

AI 分析

痛点：离开工位后无法监控正在运行的 AI coding agent，任务卡在“yes/no”确认上、甚至整夜空转，而手机端又缺少顺手且带推送提醒的远程终端。

目标用户：使用 Claude Code / herdr 等 AI coding agent、经常离开电脑但需要远程盯任务并接收“等待输入”提醒的开发者与独立开发者。

证据：Why: the moment I leave the desk I can't see my agents. One stops on a yes or no at 9pm and it is still sitting there at 8am. I didn't want a second interface to learn on the phone; I wanted the one I already use. / Push notifications when an agent is waiting for you.

变现：本项目本身免费开源，可变现点在其周边：托管式加密推送中继/通知服务订阅、团队多设备配对与审计面板、企业版 SSH 密钥与安全合规特性、或面向 agent 编排的增值功能（多 agent 看板、会话录制、告警规则）。

MVP：两周内做一个“AI agent 等待提醒”轻量 SaaS：用户在服务器上跑一个开源 CLI/agent 端，监听 herdr/Claude Code 的等待输入状态，通过 APNs/Telegram/Webhook 推送通知，配一个网页端查看各 agent 状态与最终确认按钮；iOS 端先复用开源 Kelpie/Heeler。

竞品：Heeler (开源 iOS herdr 客户端)、Blink Shell、Termius、Tailscale SSH / mosh 客户端、Happy Coder 等 Claude Code 远程客户端

摘要：作者发布了免费开源的 iOS/iPadOS 应用 Kelpie，通过 SSH 在手机上呈现完整的 herdr TUI 界面，解决“离开工位后看不到 AI agent、任务卡在 yes/no 上一整夜”的痛点，并带有 agent 等待输入时的推送通知。项目基于开源 Heeler（Apache 许可），SSH 密钥存于 Keychain、主机密钥首次固定。当前为免费 TestFlight 公测，本身无付费证据，但围绕 agent 远程监控与推送提醒存在可订阅化的周边机会。
