What is the best way to use Claude Code from my phone?
I enjoy working on my project from my phone when I’m away. Everything is on my computer at home. So, I’ve been using Chrome Remote Desktop on my phone and it’s really hard to use. What’s everyone else using to debug from the workplace toilet ?
What I do is write plans that will be used by Claude Code when I'm at the desktop.
I made a tool which lets me export my to do list into a markdown file, which I can feed to Claude later, along with context. Once I'm done with that I can just reimport the checklist to mark as done. You could probably do this on a synced Obsidian quite well.
1. Set up SSH access to your PC (I recommend tailscale)
2. Install and start tmux session on your PC so it stays synced and survives disconnects and what not.
3. Install Termux, SSH into your PC, attach to the tmux session.
Bonus: tmux layout will scale nicely to your phone aspect ratio
You can also setup mosh connection if you expect signal to be frequently lost due to poor network quality, etc.
This was the motivating idea for Epicenter Assistant[1] (Prompt your AI coding agent while carrying boxes of pizza home)
- Connect to your opencode sessions via a web interface, connecting via a secure tunnel.
- (Optionally) use a transcription app to prompt the coding agent. (Since typing code is more difficult on a phone.)
I'm not sure if Epicenter Assistant will be developed any further...
Vanilla opencode has a feature for sharing web links to sessions, but these are read-only.[2]

It can be a bit buggy here and there, but when it works oh boy. I've designed and executed full performance benchmarks on clusters while I was walking through the park.
I often run claud code inside tmux session on my private server. That allows me to interact with CC via ssh from any device with ssh client.
Use the GitHub action and set it up to work with issues.
