Your AI agent stalls on a (y/n) while you're away — TermIQ pushes it to your phone, you tap Yes/No, it keeps shipping. You never opened the laptop. It's a blind relay: your terminal stream is end-to-end encrypted on your own devices, so the server only forwards ciphertext it can't read. (Honest caveat: the push itself isn't E2E — it carries status metadata only, never terminal contents.) Free, no card: npx @termiq/cli · termiq.io
Hey Product Hunt
I built TermIQ because I wanted to walk away from my laptop without walking away from my AI agent — but most remote-terminal tools I tried could, in principle, read everything I typed. That bothered me. If I'm piping my codebase and my keystrokes through someone's server, "trust us" isn't good enough.
So TermIQ is a relay that's blind to your terminal contents. Your terminal stream is end-to-end encrypted on your own devices (X25519 for key exchange, XSalsa20-Poly1305 for payloads, via tweetnacl). Keys never leave your machines. The server only ever sees opaque ciphertext it can't decrypt, and it's fail-closed — it distinguishes frames by type, so if a chunk shows up as plaintext, it gets dropped, not relayed. No terminal data is stored at rest.
The honest caveat: the push notification itself is NOT end-to-end encrypted. It's standard Web Push (VAPID), built server-side from metadata the server already knows — terminal status (done / waiting on y/n / crashed) and optionally the name. So the relay and your OS push provider can see "Terminal X needs input," but never what's on the terminal. There's a toggle to strip the name down to a generic "Input required." I'd rather tell you that up front than oversell the claim.
It's been a build-in-public solo-ish grind, and I'm sure I've missed things. The crypto is all documented in the open — please poke holes in it, I genuinely want to know. Free tier is real (1 agent, 2 terminals, no card), and E2E is not paywalled.
`npx @termiq/cli` if you want to try it.
What's the threat model where this would (or wouldn't) work for you?
