Android app
An AI agent with a real computer on this phone.
AAAE is the Android AI Agent Environment. You talk to a model in one tab, and you get a real Linux shell in the other. They share the same files, the same packages, and the same home directory on the device.
Chat, code, automate, build, or keep going until you find the edge. We have not found the limit yet.
Three screens, one environment
The app is Agent, Terminal, and Settings. There is no second Linux install and no cloud workspace pretending to be your phone.
-
Agent
Ask for work in plain language. Attach images or documents. Each chat has its own folder on the computer, so files you attach and files the agent writes stay with that conversation.
-
Terminal
Open a shell on the same computer. Install tools, run git, write scripts, or inspect what the agent just did. Extra keys on screen cover Ctrl, Alt, and the keys a phone keyboard usually hides.
-
Settings
You bring the model. Paste an OpenRouter key, an OpenAI key, or the URL of any OpenAI-compatible API. Nothing is selected until you choose, and the key stays on the phone.
The computer is on the device
AAAE ships a Linux userspace next to the app. You can install packages, keep files, and leave long jobs running while the screen is off. The agent is not limited to a canned set of cloud tools. If a binary can run here, it can use it.
You can add OpenSSH and reach that same environment from a laptop on your network. The phone is the machine. The model is the operator you hired.
Android 8 and later, 64-bit. Built toward a Google Play listing. Sideload builds for testers will be published on the Releases page of this repository.
Inside the app
Screenshots and a short walkthrough will land here. Until then, this is the layout you will see: agent on the left in a wide window, terminal when you want the shell, settings when you plug in a key.
Get AAAE
Installable Android builds are not up yet. When they are, they will appear on GitHub Releases. There is no listing on Google Play today.
Use a 64-bit phone. Overlay updates will use the same signing key, so you will not need to wipe the computer just to move to a newer tester build.
