Tool Open source

Flux

Flux is an open-source device-integration tool that connects an Omarchy desktop to an Android phone or Mac over a local network, or through Tailscale when away from home. It transfers files, clipboard text, and links; reads phone notifications; sends SMS; controls media; synchronizes Do Not Disturb; runs desktop commands; and uses the phone as a camera or microphone. It can also mirror the phone screen, support fingerprint-based sudo approval, and expose coding-agent output on the phone.

Overview

The project includes a command-line interface, background daemon, native Qt desktop window, Omarchy shell plugin, Android app, and macOS app. The desktop initiates network connections, so the default Omarchy firewall does not require an additional inbound rule. Flux for Android requires Android 10 or later, while the macOS app requires macOS 14 or later.
