This file holds every use case of this repo. Each one starts with a "## " heading and ends with its URL. - Install the Lody iOS beta on iPhone to use Lody on mobile: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/innei-lody-ios/install-lody-ios-beta-on-iphone/ - Review what a coding agent changed, file by file, from iPhone: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/innei-lody-ios/review-agent-file-changes-on-phone/ - Open a local dev server running on your Mac from your iPhone: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/innei-lody-ios/preview-local-dev-server-from-phone/ - Import agent conversation history from your computer into Lody iOS: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/innei-lody-ios/import-agent-conversations-from-computer/ - Build the Lody iOS client from source for local development: https://dedupedai.com/use-cases/innei-lody-ios/build-lody-ios-from-source/ ## How to install the Lody iOS beta on iPhone to use Lody on mobile with Lody iOS Repo: [Innei/lody-ios](https://github.com/Innei/lody-ios) | Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 15 minutes | Basis: From the README Get the current TestFlight build of the independent Lody iOS client on your iPhone. **Who it is for:** An iPhone user who already uses Lody on a computer and wants chat and session access on the go. **The problem:** Lody has no App Store listing in the README, so the phone needs a different way to get the client. **The outcome:** The current Lody iOS beta build is installed on the iPhone through TestFlight and can connect to your Lody sessions. ### Steps 1. Confirm the iPhone runs iOS 26 or later. 2. Open the TestFlight link in the README on the iPhone. 3. Install the current build from TestFlight. 4. Open Lody iOS and sign in through the Device Flow prompt. 5. Check that your existing sessions appear before relying on the app. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Innei/lody-ios repo README, list the exact steps to install the current TestFlight beta on an iPhone running iOS 26 or later. Output a numbered checklist. Verify that the output says beta builds may be unstable and may break existing sessions. ``` ### Caveat The README says beta builds track main, update automatically, and may break existing sessions, so keep a copy of anything important from your sessions.

Open the session in Lody iOS on the iPhone. 2. Open the Turn Changes Overview for the turn you want to check. 3. Tap a modified file to open its diff. 4. Use the Remote Workspace File Tree to browse the project and preview other files. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Innei/lody-ios repo README, describe how to review a coding agent's file changes for one conversation turn from an iPhone. Output a short numbered procedure that names the Turn Changes Overview and the diff viewer. Verify that the output does not claim features the README does not list. ``` ### Caveat The README says full-screen diffs use a DOM WebView and tool-detail diffs render natively, so the exact diff view you see depends on where you open it.

Wait for the agent to report a local dev server in the session. 2. Tap the Preview Chip above the composer to open the server through the Lody Quick Tunnel. 3. Long-press the chip to copy the share link or open it in Safari. 4. Stop sharing from the same long-press menu when you are finished. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Innei/lody-ios repo README, explain how the Preview Chip opens a local dev server reported by an agent on the user's Mac. Output the steps in order and note what the Quick Tunnel carries. Verify that the output says only short-lived tunnel links reach the app. ``` ### Caveat The README says the preview depends on the machine's Lody Quick Tunnel, so it works only when the agent reports a local dev server and the tunnel is available.

Open Settings in Lody iOS. 2. Open Agent Conversation Sync to see supported local projects and agents. 3. Refresh the history for the project you want. 4. Select the conversations to import and confirm any conflict replacement explicitly. 5. Let the batched import finish, or re-run it later, since partial progress is kept. ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Innei/lody-ios repo README, list the steps to import selected agent conversations from a computer into Lody iOS using Agent Conversation Sync. Output a numbered list. Verify that the output states this is a manual history import and not automatic device-to-device mirroring. ``` ### Caveat The README describes this as a manual history import that retains partial progress, not continuous sync between devices.

Install Xcode 26.5 or later with Command Line Tools, Node.js 22.13 or later, and enable pnpm with `corepack enable`. 2. Clone the repository with `git clone https://github.com/Innei/lody-ios.git`. 3. Enter the folder with `cd lody-ios`. 4. Install JavaScript dependencies with `pnpm install`. 5. Install the CocoaPods toolchain into apps/mobile/vendor/bundle using the Gemfile in apps/mobile (the README's exact command is cut off, so follow its Getting Started section). ### Prompt to paste into your agent ```text Using the Innei/lody-ios repo README, produce a setup checklist for building the iOS client from source on macOS. Replace with the folder where the user wants the clone. Expected output: an ordered checklist with the exact commands, and a note on where the CocoaPods bundle goes. Verify that the Node.js and Xcode versions match the README. ``` ### Caveat The README is truncated before the full CocoaPods command, and it says the project changes quickly, so check the current README before running setup.
