Android connectivity status

There is no shipped Warden Android application. The Android design is a planning document, so there is no APK, pairing flow, or Hub-based mobile connection to configure today.

The design deliberately uses the existing node API rather than introducing a phone-specific server. That means any future Android client can connect to a daemon you have already configured for direct remote access.

The mobile-responsive web dashboard is available now. Configure remote access with a bearer token, then reach the dashboard through a private overlay or authenticated tunnel. Do not expose the daemon port directly to the public internet.

The design calls for a user to enter a daemon base URL and bearer token (with QR pairing only as a possible convenience). It would use:

  • REST for fleet state and actions;
  • SSE for live fleet updates;
  • WebSockets for agent terminal attach and the cockpit terminal; and
  • the same bearer-token rules as every other direct API client.

A read-only token can view GET/SSE data but cannot perform state-changing actions or open an interactive attach session.

Hub-routed Android connectivity is also planned, not shipped. When available, it is intended to use the same node API over a relay, with native end-to-end authentication; it will not require a parallel Android-only backend.
