CodeConnect

CodeConnect is a mobile client controls desktop coding agents remotely.

CodeConnect is a mobile application that allows users to control coding agents running on their Mac or Linux computers from an iPhone. It consolidates active sessions from multiple machines onto a single home screen, ranking tasks that require attention. Users can review exact commands, inspect diffs, answer questions, and approve or deny actions using biometric authentication. The platform supports Claude Code and Codex, integrating with Tailscale for secure, end-to-end encrypted connections without requiring a third-party server account. Additionally, it features a live terminal for taking over sessions completely and supports local network connections as an alternative.
