Run bots on your own computer
Pair your phone to your computer end to end, see exactly how it is connected, and switch accounts without signing in again.
Hand real work to AI agents that run on your own computer, and carry them in your pocket. MausBot is the iPhone app for OpenMausBot, the open-source agent runtime you install on your own Mac, Windows or Linux machine.
Your bots work on your hardware, with your keys, on your files. Nothing is uploaded to us.
WORK YOU CAN HAND OFF
· Inbox triage: read the morning's mail, flag what matters, draft replies, send nothing without your yes
· Pull request review: read a diff, leave comments, open the follow-up issue
· Bug reproduction: drive a browser until the bug happens, then write it up with the steps
· Standup digest: gather what moved yesterday and post the summary to Slack
· Issue grooming: tidy a Linear backlog, label it, close what already shipped
· Research watch: check a list of sites overnight and report what changed
· Portal errands: log into the dull vendor site, download the invoices, park them for review
· Codebase chores: run the migration, fix the lint, open the branch
MESSAGE A BOT LIKE A TEAMMATE
Send work from your phone the way you would text a colleague. Pick up the same thread on your computer. Each bot keeps its own model, its own computer and its own instructions, and comes back to you only when it needs a decision.
A BOT ASKS BEFORE IT ACTS
Shell commands, file edits and open questions arrive as cards you answer with one tap, from the lock screen if you like. Nothing risky happens while you are away without your approval. The gate is the point.
TALK TO IT OUT LOUD
Start a Live call and brief a bot by voice while you walk, with the chat open beside you.
MANY BOTS, IN PARALLEL
Run a bot per job. One owns a project, one watches the inbox, one keeps the build green. Put several in a channel and they pass work between themselves. A cross-bot inbox shows everything waiting on you in one place.
IT KEEPS GOING WITHOUT YOU
Routines run work on a schedule, from every few minutes to selected weekdays. Webhooks let another system start a job. Your computer does the work whether or not your phone is awake.
CONNECTED APPS
OAuth once and every bot can use Gmail, Slack, GitHub, Notion, Linear and hundreds more as tools.
BRING YOUR OWN BRAIN
Bots run on the Claude, Codex and Grok CLIs already installed on your machine. Switch a bot's model mid-conversation.
PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE
MausBot talks straight to the companion service on your own computer. Transcripts and keys stay in local storage on that machine. Pair with a short-lived code from Remote access, and revoke the phone whenever you want.
AT HOME OR AWAY
On a trusted network the phone finds your computer by itself. For remote access, install Tailscale on both and connect by MagicDNS name.
Requires OpenMausBot on a Mac, Windows or Linux computer. Free and open source. Tailscale is optional and is not affiliated with OpenMausBot.
great app so useful and helpful.
some feedback:
- ability to change models around easily: having to change the entire default model of the bot just to delegate certain tasks or prompts to the more appropriate model (cost, speed, intelligence, etc) is a hassle. i’d like if you made it possible to switch the model urself seamlessly like other ai apps
- ability to paste in copied images: just a simple quality of life change. sometimes i don’t feel like adding a screenshot to my photo library and uploading it into chat manually, id like if i could just screenshot and copy paste it into chat.
- plus button in chat dropping down the entire keyboard: small quality of life change, id like if i could press the plus button and not have it drop the entire keyboard and have to bring it back up each time
- removal of the grey bar at the top of the screen when chatting with bots: makes the screen feel packed and clunky, just remove it. u can keep the name of the bot centered where it is at the top or maybe add a liquid glass effect so its more transparent and eases in with the UI better OR just add an avatar circle w the display of the bot at the top right and let that be the button OR just copy the way it is on imessage lol, i think that’s the best way IMO.
- editable chat backgrounds: fun, aesthetic, makes it easier to discern bots from each other alongside the color coding.
- ui/ux improvements: regular mobile app tweaks that make navigation so much easier like swiping out by swiping right from the left edge of the screen, bouncier and more responsive vertical scrolling (sometimes the screen genuinely doesn’t move), etc
genuinely amazing app with potential. you guys are doing great stuff:)
主要差在模型的接入上，我接入ChatGPT 的订阅，经常报错，让我换模型，我不知道为什么会如此的不稳定，我不知道是ChatGPT 的问题还是你的问题
