README

Palm

Use your whole Mac from your iPhone: tap, type and open any app on its live screen, from anywhere. Its files, its terminal and the coding agents running on it come with it.

Tap an app and its window fills the screen; its old size comes back when you leave. In landscape the controls float in a rail that tucks away. On a weak connection the picture gets softer instead of freezing.
  • Agents. Chat with Claude Code, Codex or any agent that speaks the Agent Client Protocol (Gemini CLI, Grok, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, OpenCode, goose and more), each with its own sign-in on your Mac. Replies stream in, approvals come to the phone, Stop works, and tasks keep running after you close Palm. Open the Ma
