I feel like a lot of folks are saying this kills the Code on your Phone opportunity some start-ups are building for. I don't agree. I feel like coding agents are like streaming services, we will subscribe to multiple and switch between them. So for one there's value in a universal control plane. The other is that mobile as a coding interface should offer more than a remote control to the desktop. I think there's stil…

I don't know a single person who is satisfied with the status quo on streaming services where you have to subscribe to multiple ones. Everyone is complaining that the landscape is 1) more fragmented than cable was, 2) costs more, 3) has even more ads than cable

I think people forgot how bad it was. It was much more fragmented before but instead of services it was fragmented by time. Sure you have access to Seinfeld, but you can watch one or two Seinfelds a night at 8pm and 11pm.

I also remember base cable without any movies was around $60 or something and with some movie channels is >$100. And that's not inflation adjusted. You can easily get 3 or 4 of the top services for $100 today.

Finally claiming there are more ads on these services is a joke. There was ~20m for every 30m of programming, meaning 1/3 of the time you're watching commercials. And not just any commercials, the same commercials over and over. There was even a case of shows being sped up on cable to show more commercials.

I get it, everyone wants everything seamlessly and for next to nothing, but claiming that 90s cable was even comparable is absurd.

WOW I had been using the Codex app (Claude/Anthropic have a few annoying problems) and wishing there was something like this!

I often get ideas while I'm in bed or outside away from my computer, and was thinking that the ability to code on your computer from your phone, through AI, would be such a killer app.

My favorite use case would be asking the AI to review code and going over its findings/suggestions while I'm away from the computer or trying to fall asleep.

This is an extremely clunky and buggy prerelease, so don't try to hot fix prod from the toilet without a different mobile frontend.

Right now:

- You can't interrupt Claude (you press stop and he keeps going!)

- At best it stops but just keeps spinning

- The UI disconnects intermittently

- It disconnects if you switch to other parts of Claude

- It can get stuck in plan mode

- Introspection is poor

- You see XML in the output instead of things like buttons

- One session at a time

- Sessions at times don't load

- Everytime you navigate away from Code you need to wait for your session to reappear

I'm sure I'm missing a few things.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

If you'd read the entire issue, you'd see that not only is that solution mentioned multiple times, it's not working for some people.

it worked for me

If it worked for everybody that issue would already be closed.

On Android app it needs Claude GitHub connection with scope to act on my behalf! Otherwise it won't work in the app. Really do NOT like that! Why does the remote control needs that? For what? I rather use the common developer tools like termux or mosh etc. on a phone if I need that functionality.

Make a throwaway GitHub account just for it and give it PR access to your private repos.

that's actually a good idea. Thanks, was not thinking about such a workaround!

have been using tmux and ssh-on-the-phone doing for forever, what's new?

have you gotten a terminal interface on your phone to be acceptably usable? I haven't - not without a real keyboard attached in any case. too many parts of the UX are designed for a true keyboard.

That's a bummer. I was looking forward to testing this, but that seems pretty limiting.

My current solution uses Tailscale with Termius on iOS. It's a pretty robust solution so far, except for the actual difficulty of reading/working on a mobile screen. But for the most part, input controls work.

My one gripe with Termius is that I can't put text directly into stdin using the default iOS voice-to-text feature baked into the keyboard.
