Guide Overview

This overview helps you decide which guide to read first. Redock setup usually has four steps: connect to a Host, make the connection reliable, move authentication to a safer long-term setup, then organize Projects, Actions, and Snippets around your daily workflow.

First-Time Setup

If you have a Mac and your iPhone or iPad is on the same Wi-Fi, start with Quick Start. This is the shortest path for trying the core Redock workflow.
If your remote machine is Windows, start with Windows Remote Login. It explains how to enable OpenSSH Server and allow Redock to connect.

Access From Outside Your Network

If you want a secure, stable way to reach a Mac, Windows PC, or server at home or in the office, read Tailscale Setup. It is the best fit for long-term use and cross-network recovery.
If you only need temporary SSH access, or cannot install a VPN-style tool in the current environment, read ngrok SSH Forwarding. It is useful for short tests and temporary access.

Reliability and Mobile Networks

If you want work to survive disconnects, app backgrounding, or coming back later, read tmux Setup.
If you already use tmux, or want work to survive app backgrounding and brief network drops, pair it with Redock Best Practices.
If you often switch between cellular, Wi-Fi, and hotspots, or want a better terminal experience on unstable networks, read Mosh Setup.

Authentication and Security

If password login already works but you want a safer long-term setup, read SSH Keys.
If you need to write a private key into Redock's authkey file, this guide also explains where to check and how to write it.

Development Workflow

If you want to understand how Projects, Actions, and Snippets fit together, read Redock Best Practices. It focuses on using Redock across the development cycle: build, test, verify, and release.
If you want to combine Claude Code, Codex, tmux, and common commands on mobile, this is the guide to read.

Voice Input

If you use OpenAI speech-to-text, read OpenAI Speech Setup.
If you use Volcengine speech services, read Volcengine Speech Setup.
