Summary
Connor Adams presents Remoby (remobi.app) at AI Engineer — an open-source progressive web app that lets developers monitor and interact with AI coding agents from a mobile phone without disrupting their existing terminal workflows. The talk addresses a real gap: existing mobile solutions like Happy’s Claude Code app are locked to a single tool and route traffic through relay servers, while raw SSH terminal apps require cumbersome key management and don’t integrate with custom terminal setups.
Remoby works by running a lightweight server on the developer’s machine and connecting to it via a PWA on iOS or Android. Critically, it mirrors tmux sessions directly, meaning developers who already run multiple Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, or other terminal-based agents in tmux panes can view and interact with those exact layouts from their phone. Touch gestures handle zooming into individual panes, scrolling output, switching tmux windows, and triggering custom keybindings — for example, opening lazygit to review a diff or killing a rogue process holding a port.
Adams demonstrates the workflow live, including a tmux setup running four simultaneous coding agents and the phone interface used to inspect their output and switch one into plan mode. The project is open source, works across any terminal-based agent framework, and requires no relay server — the connection stays local or goes through the developer’s own SSH setup.
