Use your Mac from your phone.

When a task needs VS Code, a browser, or another desktop tool, open a live view of your Mac and control it with touch, keyboard, and familiar modifiers.

Away from the desk

Check the work, not the laptop.

Use a focused mobile action for the common case, and keep full screen control available for the uncommon one.

Before you connect

The practical details.

Does my code run in the cloud?

No. Your code, terminal processes, files, credentials, and coding agents stay on your Mac. Vibe Remote connects your authenticated phone to that machine.

Do I need a native phone app?

No. Vibe Remote is an installable mobile web app. Scan the pairing QR, open it in your browser, and add it to your Home Screen for an app-like experience and push notifications.

Can I use sessions that started outside Vibe Remote?

Yes, but continuing a session started with the standard codex or claude command creates a forked continuation on mobile; it does not make the original Terminal and phone parallel interactive clients. Start with vibe-remote codex or vibe-remote claude when you want one Vibe Remote-managed session available from your Mac and phone.

What happens if my phone disconnects?

The agent or terminal process continues on your Mac. When the phone reconnects, Vibe Remote restores the session and its recent activity.

Can the hosted relay read my terminal or files?

Terminal, file, Git, agent, and control messages are end-to-end encrypted between your paired phone and Mac. Screen video uses encrypted WebRTC.

Keep the work moving

Leave the desk. Keep the session.
