No word about updating Jules, which is still stuck on 3.1 Pro. I get that it's probably niche but I've really appreciated basically being able to give directions to Jules on my phone, then reviewing and merging a GitHub PR fifteen minutes later. It's been great for getting some progress in on a few personal projects during my commute when I can't exactly pull out my laptop.

Anyone have any good alternatives?

Both Claude and Codex can code in the cloud, it works quite well!

I tested Jules and while the idea is good in theory, I found the model's intelligence to be very lackluster.

Shame. I'm on the $20/mo Gemini Pro plan because the 5tb of cloud storage and the youtube premium lite were good enough perks, and my coding complexity needs were light enough for me to overlook Claude or Codex. But Antigravity is working better than Jules and it's basically giving me a taste of what I'm missing and it's harder to justify not trying out the competitors.

I do not, however I am curious about Jules support. I didn't know if this was a dead project or not. Seemed really interesting but then I didn't see much development/announcements/discussions around it. Last update from their changelog was as you said 3.1-pro support in March.

I have no affiliations with the team or product, but Superconductor reminded me of Jules when I tried it a couple of months ago.

It might be overkill features-wise, but there's a free tier and it likely won't be left for dead anytime soon.

If you own a Raspberry Pi or similar: Hermes + Tailscale + iSH over tmux.
