Local-first
Your machine remains the place where local code, tools, and agent execution live. The web app stores safe control-plane state, not raw working context.
About
A local-first bridge for serious developer agents.
Runmote Web pairs local machines, tracks client presence and releases, and bridges opaque ChatGPT tasks to the owner's local coding agent.
Developer-centric
ChatGPT understands the request, Runmote transports it, and Codex inspects and works in the owner-selected local workspace.
Safety-first
Strict envelopes, authentication, idempotency, redaction, and lifecycle reconciliation protect the bridge without duplicating Codex planning.
Accounts and pairing
First-party accounts, roles, and pairing lifecycle are already part of the web foundation.
Presence and releases
Device heartbeat, client metadata, stable/beta release catalog, and latest-version APIs form the operator surface.
Agent task bridge
The generic protocol starts, tracks, continues, cancels, and returns opaque local agent tasks without stack-specific policy.
FAQ
Current beta boundaries.
Is Runmote stable yet?
CLI stable 0.1.0 is available for Ubuntu amd64 terminal installs. Desktop and Headless are still public beta packages, and future stable packages remain gated by acceptance and publication checks.
Which package should I install?
Choose CLI stable 0.1.0 for Ubuntu amd64 terminal setup, the latest published CLI beta when you intentionally want an early preview, Desktop beta for the GUI, or Headless beta for a server/no-GUI machine. They are separate packages, not a parity promise.
Does Runmote log in to Codex/OpenAI for me?
No. Runmote account pairing is with runmote.com. Codex/OpenAI or ChatGPT authentication remains handled by those tools outside Runmote, and Runmote does not ask for those credentials.
Does installation start anything automatically?
No. Packages install passively. Setup, pairing, background sessions, and any local Codex flow begin only when the user runs the relevant Runmote command.
What does beta / release candidate mean?
Beta and RC packages are for early testing and feedback, not stable releases. The download catalog provides the current published version, architecture, size, and checksum.
What workspace information is reported?
When paired, the CLI can report a safe workspace-shape summary such as workspace kind and Git-root count. It does not report secrets, raw file contents, or auth material.
