Forge Remote is a mobile command center for Claude Code. Monitor, control, and interact with Claude Code sessions running on your desktop — from anywhere.
WHAT IT DOES
Forge Remote pairs with your desktop computer via a lightweight relay agent. Once connected, you can start coding sessions, send prompts, approve permissions, and monitor progress — all from your phone.
KEY FEATURES
• Start Sessions Remotely — Launch Claude Code sessions on your desktop from your phone. Pick a project, choose a model (Sonnet, Opus, or Haiku), and send your initial prompt.
• Real-Time Output — Watch Claude's responses stream in real-time with full markdown rendering, syntax-highlighted code blocks, and tool call details.
• Permission Management — Approve or deny tool permissions (file writes, bash commands, etc.) instantly via push notification or in-app modal.
• Multi-Desktop Support — Pair multiple desktops and manage sessions across all of them from a single app.
• Session Monitoring — Track token usage, costs, tool call history, and file modifications for every session.
• Voice Input — Dictate prompts hands-free using built-in speech-to-text.
• Quick Actions — One-tap shortcuts for common tasks: run tests, build, fix errors, commit, and more.
• Live Preview — View your app's dev server output with a built-in browser that auto-refreshes.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Install the forge-remote relay on your desktop (npm install -g forge-remote)
2. Scan the QR code from your desktop to pair
3. Start coding from your phone
BRING YOUR OWN FIREBASE
Forge Remote uses a Bring Your Own Firebase (BYOF) architecture. You connect your own Firebase project — your data stays in your own cloud, under your control. No third-party servers. No data collection.
REQUIREMENTS
• A desktop computer running the forge-remote relay agent
