## Best for

Agent users who want tasks, files, models, and remote desktops across devices without a cloud VM.

## Why it deserves attention

Cindy runs tasks on your own computers and lets you reach them from another machine or Android phone, including a remote desktop view when you need to take over. It can drive Claude Code, Codex, and Pi, reuse API keys or subscriptions configured elsewhere, and share files and conversations across devices. It is Apache-2.0 with 9,000 GitHub stars and the software itself is free; managed model credits start at $20, or bring your own key. The computer running the task must stay online, and it is still an early 0.1.x product.
