Open source app for GitHub Copilot

Drive GitHub Copilot from your phone or desktop. Same account, same machine, ship without sitting down at your desk.

Orfyn desktop app with coding agents, a conversation, and a code diff open side by side

When you want to step away from your desk,
you can.

The native mobile app has full feature parity with desktop.

Works with your tools

Run your agents from one interface. Orfyn uses each provider's native harness, so your subscriptions, skills, config, and MCP servers keep working.

Runs where you work

Start agents on your laptop, a VM, or a dev server. Use them from any device over a direct connection or the end-to-end encrypted relay.

Forget about ports

When agents work in parallel, they all run dev servers. Orfyn gives each one a URL based on the branch name, no port conflicts, no guessing.

Voice control, fully local

Fully local voice stack. Speech-to-text and text-to-speech run entirely on your machine, nothing leaves your network.

Fully scriptable

Everything you can do in the app, you can do from the terminal.

orfyn run "implement user authentication"
orfyn run --provider codex --worktree feature-x "implement feature X"
orfyn run --host devbox:6767 "run the full test suite"

orfyn ls                           # list running agents
orfyn attach abc123                # stream live output
orfyn send abc123 "also add tests" # follow-up task

FAQ

+Is this free?
Yes. Orfyn is free and open source. You need Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, or Pi installed with your own credentials. Voice is local-first by default and can optionally use OpenAI speech providers if you configure them.
+Does my code leave my machine?
Orfyn doesn't send your code anywhere. Agents run locally and talk to their own APIs as they normally would. For remote access, you can use the optional end-to-end encrypted relay, connect directly over your local network, or use your own tunnel.
+What agents does it support?
Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, and Pi. Each agent runs as its own process using its own CLI or local integration. Orfyn doesn't modify or wrap their behavior.
+Do I need the desktop app?
No. You can run the daemon headless with npm install -g @upfynorg/cli && orfyn and use the CLI, web app, or mobile app to connect. The desktop app just bundles the daemon with a UI.
+How does voice work?
Voice runs locally on your device by default. You talk, the app transcribes and sends it to your agent as text. Optionally, you can configure OpenAI speech providers for higher-quality transcription and text-to-speech. See the voice docs.
+Can I connect from outside my network?
Yes. You can use the hosted relay (end-to-end encrypted, Orfyn can't read your traffic), set up your own tunnel (Tailscale, Cloudflare Tunnel, etc.), or expose the daemon port directly. See configuration.
+Do I need git or GitHub?
No. Orfyn works in any directory. Worktrees are optional and only relevant if you use git. You can run agents anywhere you'd normally work.
+Can I get banned for using Orfyn?

We can't make promises on behalf of providers.

That said, Orfyn launches each provider's local CLI or integration (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Pi) as a subprocess. It doesn't extract tokens or call inference APIs directly. From the provider's perspective, usage through Orfyn is indistinguishable from running the provider yourself.

I've been using Orfyn with all providers for months without issue.

+How do worktrees work?
When you launch an agent with the worktree option (from the app, desktop, or CLI), Orfyn creates a git worktree and runs the agent inside it. The agent works on an isolated branch without touching your main working directory. See the worktrees docs.

Orfyn is an independent open source project for running coding agents across your own machines, phone, desktop, and CLI.

It's built around freedom of choice: use the provider you want, run it on your own infrastructure, and keep your workflow portable.

If you like Orfyn, sponsorship is the best way to support continued development.
