phone-harness Puts a Coding Agent in Control of Your Phone — 1,839 Stars in Nine Days
ShawnPana/phone-harness (created 2026-08-07, MIT, Python, 170 forks, pushed 2026-08-16) is a harness that lets an agent drive a physical phone, tagged agent/ai/automation/developer-tools. Star velocity is roughly 200/day since creation, comfortably above the >50/day threshold that usually precedes press coverage. It lands alongside browser-use (109,380 stars) as the second surface — after the browser — that agent harnesses are being pointed at, and it inherits the same unresolved question: there is no meaningful sandbox between an agent's tool call and a device holding your authenticated sessions.
