Funny how similar this is to the famous comment on Dropbox's Launch HN post in 2007. "1. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software."
You couldn't vibe-code Dropbox in an hour though...
Was there some unlock that happened to make it viable again?
I was an omnara user until that happened and then I switched to happy.engineering. It’s been okay, but I’m excited that omnara is back

They currently don't have the ability to use a local session from your phone, and they only have voice input, not voice input and output for completely hands free usage.
> They currently don't have the ability to use a local session from your phone… Claude Code will help you set this up using tmux. Voice input and output personally seems like a gimmick, but OS accessibilty features should work fine for this.
Nice to have when cooking and I want to use my laptop without wiping my hands dry constantly.
What changed from your original launch? I know you were hamstrung by something (updates if I recall). Was there some unlock that happened to make it viable again? I was an omnara user until that happened and then I switched to happy.engineering. It’s been okay, but I’m excited that omnara is back
Now we use the Claude Agent SDK (basically a headless version of Claude Code), and we make our own UI for laptop and mobile. This is way easier to maintain than the previous solution we had. You can import Claude Code CLI sessions into Omnara, but you cant see a 1:1 realtime Claude Code CLI session in Omnara anymore. But we think that a GUI is a better experience than the CLI anyways for managing a bunch of agents.
Can you make it work in android auto?

Haha glad to hear that you used Omnara before. In the old version, we were directly parsing the terminal output, which was really hard to maintain. But that meant you could use the Claude Code CLI directly in your terminal, and have the same session appear in your phone. Now we use the Claude Agent SDK (basically a headless version of Claude Code), and we make our own UI for laptop and mobile. This is way easier to m…
This project seems like a good idea that didn't have enough of a moat. I'd suggest trying to narrow your target customer from "engineers that want to manage agents on their phone" to "people trying to do some particular kind of task," so you can bake in more value add and automation. You're not going to beat the labs on general tools, but they're not going to be willing to narrow their target customer, so you'll alwa…
For sensitive apps, it can't merge them, so I have to hit the button in the Gitea web interface (also on my phone), which does the same thing.
