Vibe Pocket

Product Introduction

1. Definition: Vibe Pocket is a cloud-based development environment platform (PaaS category) enabling users to run AI coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI directly in browser or mobile interfaces.
2. Core Value Proposition: It eliminates local setup requirements by providing pre-configured, cloud-hosted terminals for AI-assisted coding, allowing developers to build, test, and deploy projects from any device using their preferred AI tools.

Main Features

1. AI Agent Integration:

   • How it works: Users connect GitHub repositories and select from 15+ pre-configured CLI agents (e.g., Claude Code for codebase search, Codex for automated edits). Agents execute via cloud containers with persistent API key management.
   • Technologies: Docker containerization, OAuth for GitHub integration, and RESTful APIs for agent orchestration.

2. Persistent Cloud Terminals:

   • How it works: Sessions remain active across devices with 10GB storage. Commands run continuously even after tab closure.
   • Technologies: WebSocket-based terminal emulators, cloud storage volumes, and session management via Kubernetes pods.

3. Public Port Forwarding & Real-Time Sync:

   • How it works: Instantly exposes local servers via HTTPS links for testing. Edits sync across devices through websocket-driven state synchronization.
   • Technologies: NGINX reverse proxying, Let’s Encrypt SSL, and conflict-free replicated data types (CRDTs).

Problems Solved

1. Pain Point: Eliminates environment setup friction for AI coding tools, reducing configuration time from hours to seconds.
2. Target Audience:
   • Mobile developers needing terminal access on-the-go
   • Full-stack engineers using multiple AI agents (e.g., Codex + Aider)
   • Teams requiring collaborative cloud workspaces
3. Use Cases:
   • Debugging production issues via phone using Claude Code’s code search
   • Testing webhooks with public URLs during remote pair programming
   • Running resource-intensive agents (e.g., AMP CLI) on low-spec devices

Unique Advantages

1. Differentiation: Unlike local IDEs or static cloud IDEs, Vibe Pocket specializes in ephemeral AI agent execution with persistent state, offering broader agent support (15+ tools) than competitors like GitHub Codespaces.
2. Key Innovation: BYOK (Bring Your Own Keys) model decouples platform costs from AI usage, while real-time terminal sync enables unique mobile-first development workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Does Vibe Pocket support private repositories?
   Yes, it securely connects to private GitHub repos via OAuth 2.0 authorization with read/write scopes.

2. How does billing work for AI model usage?
   Users supply their own API keys for agents (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.), paying only for model consumption plus Vibe Pocket’s platform fee.

3. Can I run custom terminal commands outside pre-built agents?
   Absolutely – the platform provides full Linux shell access, allowing execution of any CLI tool (e.g., npm install, docker build).

4. Is there offline access to coding environments?
   No, as sessions rely on cloud containers. However, persistent storage ensures file retention between sessions.

5. What security measures protect my code?
   All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256), with isolated containers and optional 2FA authentication.
