moCODE

Product Introduction

1. Definition: moCODE is a mobile integrated development environment (IDE) application for Android that connects to OpenCode/KiloCode servers. It enables AI-assisted coding, file management, and terminal operations directly from mobile devices.
2. Core Value Proposition: It eliminates location constraints for developers by transforming smartphones into portable coding workstations with full AI-powered tools, enabling real-time code writing, review, and deployment from anywhere.

Main Features

1. AI Chat Interface:

   • How it works: Integrates smart chat with @file mentions to reference repository files during AI conversations. Uses slash commands (e.g., /debug, /optimize) for instant actions.
   • Technologies: Markdown rendering with syntax-highlighted code blocks and real-time response streaming via WebSockets.

2. Session Management:

   • How it works: Organizes AI interactions into sessions tied to Git branches. Supports forking, archiving, and sharing chat histories.
   • Technologies: Git integration for branch-based session tracking and confirmation prompts for safe deletion.

3. Model Selection:

   • How it works: Browses AI models from connected providers (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic). Allows starring favorites and setting default models globally or per session.
   • Technologies: API-driven model aggregation with priority-based routing.

4. Developer Tools:

   • How it works: Features a rich diff viewer with syntax highlighting, file-change sidebars (additions/deletions), and error diagnostics. Includes a built-in SSH terminal.
   • Technologies: SFTP for remote file access and secure shell protocols for terminal operations.

5. File Browser:

   • How it works: Navigates remote repositories via SFTP, downloads files to devices, and bookmarks frequently accessed paths with sort/filter options.
   • Technologies: Encrypted SFTP connections with local caching for offline access.

Problems Solved

1. Pain Point: Developers cannot code efficiently on mobile due to limited tools and lack of AI integration. moCODE bridges this gap with desktop-grade features.
2. Target Audience:
   • Remote software engineers needing on-the-go coding.
   • DevOps professionals managing server emergencies via mobile.
   • OpenCode/KiloCode users requiring mobile access to their AI coding environments.
3. Use Cases:
   • Reviewing pull requests and fixing bugs during travel.
   • Using AI to generate code snippets without a laptop.
   • SSH server maintenance from mobile devices.

Unique Advantages

1. Differentiation: Unlike generic mobile IDEs (e.g., Acode), moCODE offers deep OpenCode/KiloCode server integration, Git-aware session management, and provider-agnostic AI model selection.
2. Key Innovation: Context-aware AI chat with file referencing (@file) and slash commands enables seamless code iteration without switching screens—unmatched in mobile development tools.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. How does moCODE connect to OpenCode servers?
   Enter your server’s IP/URL in Settings, authenticate via Google, and establish an encrypted connection for real-time coding.
2. Can moCODE work offline?
   Partial offline access is available for bookmarked files, but AI features require an active server connection.
3. Is moCODE secure for enterprise codebases?
   Yes, it uses encrypted SFTP/SSH protocols and never stores code on external servers.
4. What AI models are compatible with moCODE?
   All models supported by OpenCode/KiloCode servers, including OpenAI GPT, Claude, and open-source LLMs.
5. Does moCODE support iOS?
   Currently Android-only; iOS support is under development.
