Claude Code Remote Control Setup

Code from your iPhone while AI runs on your Windows PC — using Tmux, Termius, and Tailscale.

This repo contains a complete, beginner-friendly guide for setting up a remote coding workflow on Windows + Git Bash + iPhone.

The Stack

Tool	Role
Tmux	Keeps terminal sessions alive and synced between your PC and phone
Termius	SSH client on your iPhone — gives you a full terminal on your phone
Tailscale	Secure private network between your devices — access localhost from your phone

Plus Claude Code Remote Control as a lightweight alternative for quick prompt-sending.

What You Get

• A persistent terminal session on your PC that you can attach to from your iPhone
• Full two-way sync — type on your phone, see it on your PC, and vice versa
• Access to localhost on your phone to preview what you're building
• Works with Claude Code, Codex, or any CLI tool
