Agent workflow first. Full SSH underneath.
Agent approval prompts
Vector detects Claude Code, Codex, and other in-shell approval prompts so you can get back to the right session and answer without hunting through terminal output.
Workspaces over SSH
Resume or create durable tmux-backed workspaces from the phone UI. Provider details stay out of the way unless they matter.
Code-block actions
Tap AI-emitted code blocks to copy, explain, or run conservative single-line shell commands. Multi-line snippets stay manual by design.
Mosh and reconnects
Use SSH for the normal path, then switch supported hosts to Mosh for roaming and faster recovery on mobile networks.
Modern terminal core
xterm-compatible rendering, true color, mouse reporting, bracketed paste, Unicode handling, inline images, hyperlinks, and real Claude/Codex session fixtures.
Local credential storage
Hosts, keys, snippets, and logs live on your device. Credentials use platform secure storage and never sync through Vector.
Snippets
Save the commands you run over and over. Paste them into any session with one tap, or bind to a shortcut.
Biometric lock
Fingerprint unlock gates the app and individual sessions. Keys stay encrypted at rest in hardware-backed storage.
Port forwarding
Local, remote, and dynamic forwards. First-class UI for managing tunnels without editing a config file.
SFTP
Browse, upload, and download files over your existing SSH connection. No separate client, no extra credentials.
Automatic reconnect
Lock your phone, lose signal, come back — the connection manager re-establishes the session instead of forcing you to start over.
We built a real terminal core, not a thin text box.
We built Vector for long-running shells, TUIs, and AI coding agents that expect modern escape-sequence behavior on a small screen.
