This is slightly off topic but...

All demos of coding from your phone or even just agents in general show the user just relaxing in a park or whatever.

If you have tons of free time and you are employed, what do you think will happen? Solve for the equilibrium!

Just as some feedback, your pricing doesn't make sense to me. I san see having a limited number of sessions as a trial, but for people on $20/mo codex/claude plans 10 sessions is too few and adding $20/mo for omnara doesn't make sense. Yes $20/mo is small compared to Codex Pro/Claude Max plans.

Omnara is easy to get a taste and with that pricing the next step is just going to be: switch to happy. But for people starting out you're just driving people to happy instead and when they upgrade from $20/mo LLM plans you will have pushed them to happy and they'll stick with happy rather than come to omnara.

Funny how similar this is to the famous comment on Dropbox's Launch HN post in 2007. "1. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software."

Drop Box is free though.

I migrated away from dropbox to seafile. 2gb free plan to now unlimited =) total: 3 hours with claude code.

Feels expensive for something that an engineer can hack in a couple of ours with tailscale and Claude Code. Has potential though. At $9 I'd be totally in, but moving from CC's Max plan at $100, adding $20 makes me wanna just hack an alternative. Maybe I'm just cheap.

HN never disappoints!

OpenCode is great and `opencode serve` in particular is very cool. Though I think the main thing is that you need to manage the OpenCode server yourself and expose it via tailscale or something like that. Our goal is to provide managed infrastructure around the coding agent harness with features like mobile, sandboxes, preview urls, etc. Our goal is to be harness agnostic as well, so eventually we will be adding supp…

How do you plan to be harness agnostic if you design requires using the agent SDKs (Claude Agent SDK, etc.)?

When I say harness agnostic, I more mean we're agnostic to what harness is running, sort of like Zed with ACP: https://agentclientprotocol.com/overview/introduction. It still necessitates bringing the SDK and us writing an adapter for the SDK, but you still get to use the same chat interface for all the agent SDKs.

How are the runs isolated? Can I run multiple parallel sessions on the same repo? What about security / sandboxing to avoid exfiltration of data etc? Thanks!

Yeah, we have parallel agent functionality, sort of like conductor. This allows you to create worktrees for your repo and run any number of chats per worktree. On your local machine, we don't have any unique sandboxing capabilities, but we reuse your sandboxing settings from Claude or Codex if you have them set. The cloud sandboxing is more isolated, but still has access to the internet.

If you can improve over existing user experience of other tools, this is certainly worth the price. How are you handling private data and chats transmitted?

Reposting part of what Ishaan said elsewhere:

> We don't have E2EE yet (it's on the roadmap), so some level of trust in Omnara is required today. All repo operations happen locally on your machine. For messages/chat history: we store those encrypted at rest because we need access to sync across devices, send notifications, and resume agents. Cloud sandboxing is opt-in and would require syncing codebase state.

getting this error trying to connect github: github_unauthorized: GitHub OAuth error: The redirect_uri MUST match the registered callback URL for this application.

Just fixed this issue! Seemed to occur on web, thanks for reporting this!
