A workspace for coding agents across your devices

Run coding agents through a self-hosted gateway or möbius Cloud. Keep Bot profiles, conversations, and workspaces together across your terminal and Apple devices.

möbius provides a self-hostable gateway, reusable Bots, and cross-device workspaces for coding agents. It is a partial alternative to Codex, using its own runtime and clients rather than Codex’s ChatGPT experience.
