spekterm 0.2.14 adds remote access: the spekterm app on your phone can reach spekterm on your computer
directly, with no account, relay or push service. It also brings a Settings dialog with sections, status
dots for agent sessions, and scheduled handoffs. This is the first release since 0.2.4.

New

  • Remote access (pair your phone) — off until you turn it on in Settings → Remote access. A paired
    phone connects straight to your computer over TLS on one port, pinning spekterm's self-signed
    certificate; each device has its own credential, which you can revoke. From the phone you can:

    • see every folder and session, read an agent's conversation and reply to it, with photos and files
      attached;
    • answer an agent's permission prompts, questions and plans (spekterm presses the keys, one at a time,
      and checks before each that the prompt is still the same one);
    • start, wake, rename, hibernate and close sessions, and answer an agent's offer to close its own;
    • handle the inbox, including sending an accepted item's filled-in first prompt;
    • follow your handoffs, see an agent's background tasks, and browse your OpenSpec changes;
    • be told when an agent waits for you.

    A paired phone can type into your sessions, so treat it like your keyboard. See
    Remote access. The Android app is built against
    the protocol in docs/remote-protocol.md.

  • Settings with sections — General, Terminal, Agents & sessions, Integrations, Remote access and
    About in one dialog. A change applies when you make it; there is no Save button.

  • Is the agent working or waiting for you? Each agent session shows a status dot: working, waiting
    for you, asking for a choice, or idle. "Waiting" stays until you look at the session.

  • Scheduled handoffs — an agent can hand work off for a later time ("at"): it waits in the inbox
    and opens when due, or at the next start. The agent learns what became of each handoff from a receipt
    (accepted, scheduled, duplicate, rejected, held).

  • Agents can close, hibernate or rename their own session and the sessions they handed off. Closing
    its own session is only offered to you, with Close and Keep.

Fixed

  • The side panel follows an openspec/ folder created while the app runs.
  • The conversation view shows what the agent really received and is doing.
  • Linux: the desktop entries name the window class the main window really has (spekterm), so the
    desktop can match the window to its entry.
  • The inbox's secondary text and the conversation cards' background used colours that were never
    defined; the activity bar marked every entry as current; the rail's hover controls left a repo's name
    only a few characters wide.

Known limitations

  • Remote access needs the phone to reach your computer: the same network, Tailscale, or a port you
    forward. There is no relay.
  • macOS: a session's working directory is not read, so restored shells restart in their folder and the
    status bar shows no directory or git state (#67); idle shells are not hibernated automatically (#68);
    the font setting offers only the system default (#69); Ctrl+↑ / Ctrl+↓ are taken by Mission
    Control (#71). The app is signed ad hoc, not notarized: the first launch needs System Settings →
    Privacy & Security → Open Anyway    , and after an update macOS may ask again for permissions you granted
    before.
  • No Windows or Intel Mac builds, and no auto-update: download the new version from this page
    (install guide).
