This is fantastic! I actually had a script I made for some research work years ago that I plugged into my email client and web scrapers. It would text me and then update me on the issues, send screenshots, and ask to ignore or proceed or pause the jobs. It’s an obvious next step for scheduled jobs or anything you want to be able to manage remotely—I was wondering when they would offer it.

Thanks Scott. And holy hell I did not know Claude Code had a remote control option. This. Changes. Everything. 🙏

This is a new product. It’s not yet out. It’ll be out.

I am using it now! Just type /remote-control in Claude Code it generates a QR code and everything. I am now controlling my terminal from my Claude app on my iPhone. Apparently, it came out yesterday. Thanks for the heads up, Scott!

Ugh. It hasn't gotten to me yet. I just typed that in.

Maybe it's just testing in the UK or Europe for now, which seems odd. It is working really well for me though, albeit with a little bit of slow-down but for a Day 1 release it is pretty awesome.

Hm. Maybe I do have it. Did you type in Claude -remote-control first?

Yes, although had to start a new Claude session and give permissions first. It was a tiny bit cumbersome, but I had another terminal window just open up and ask Claude to walk me through it. 😅
