## Products

- Vamp Sync: the macOS menu-bar host. Share a selected app window with a verified
  Control or Stream client over authenticated WebRTC. Screen Recording enables
  video; Accessibility enables keyboard and pointer control.
- Vamp Control: Mac, iPhone and iPad client. Connect to Sync to select and control
  a Mac app window. Assistant has a separate authenticated connection path.
- Vamp Stream: focused iPhone/iPad client. Stream an app window through Sync,
  or connect to Assistant through its private Remote Sessions endpoint.
- Vamp Assistant: native macOS AI chat, local/BYOK models, Code workspaces,
  specialist bots, and approval-gated automation. Includes its own iOS and
  browser remote access. Runs independently; Sync is not required.

Vamp Sync and Vamp Assistant are the only current hosts. Vamp Host, Vamp
Terminal Host, and Vamp Linux Host are discontinued. Shared transport source
and historical technical documentation remain available in the repository.

Never expose host ports directly to the public internet. Verify a new peer’s
complete fingerprint independently before approving it. macOS permissions
must be granted by the user. No hosted relay is required.
