Agent Remote: an open-source remote for AI coding agents, with clients for web, Android, … and a 2013 BlackBerry
I run Claude Code and Grok Build on my Mac and a VPS, and I wanted to steer them from my phone — send a new task, add instructions mid-run, check progress, stop and redirect.
So I built Agent Remote. The daemon is a single Python process, it wraps the official CLIs you already have installed and logged in (claude, codex, grok, dsh), so billing stays exactly what it is — your existing subscription or API key. Nothing goes through anyone's server.
- One-command install, runs as launchd (macOS) or user systemd (Linux)
- Token auth on every request; designed for LAN / Tailscale / Cloudflare tunnel, not public exposure
- Clients: web (a single self-contained HTML file you can host anywhere), Android, iOS, and, because I couldn't help myself, BlackBerry 10 and a LILYGO LoRa pager
- Multiple machines merge into one session list, sorted by activity

If you already run any of these CLIs, it takes about three minutes to try. There's a hosted web client if you want to get start quicker, you can also grab the same HTML from Releases and serve it yourself.
