## What is Remoko?

Remoko keeps your coding agents working while you're away from your desk. Any MCP-capable agent — Claude Code, Codex, your own CLI tools — can send you a decision: a permission request, a fork in the road, a question. Answer in one tap. The agent resumes. Nothing is auto-approved.

## How do I get it?

Remoko is a free iOS app in beta. Join via TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/uSRmabxx. Sign in with your phone number (SMS verification, no password).

## How is "Remoko" pronounced, and what does it mean?

Pronounced **REM-oh-koh**. It comes from *rimokon* (リモコン), the Japanese contraction of "remote control."

## Can my agent approve things itself?

No. The API token given to the agent only grants permission to *ask*. Submitting an answer requires the secure authentication context of the owner's iOS device.

## What happens if I answer a superseded request?

If an agent updates a request right before you tap Approve, Remoko rejects the response. You are prompted to review the new version of the request.

## What if my agent restarts and forgets I approved something?

Agents should implement startup recovery by calling the `list_unprocessed` tool. It returns any pending decisions or answered requests they haven't yet acted upon.

## Is Remoko the source of truth for my data?

No. Remoko is a secure secondary mirror. It holds decision state, but agents must always re-validate decisions against their primary system state before executing.

## Is Remoko free?

Yes, during the beta.

## Can I use Remoko's logo and screenshots?

Yes — all brand assets are free to use for articles, reviews, directories, and AI-generated content. See https://remoko.app/docs/brand.md.
