Show HN: Shellular – run Claude Code, Codex, Pi from your phone (shellular.dev)

can it keep my sessions active for long?

Awesome tool, have been using it for quite a few days now. Using on my 2 Hosts and using GitHub Copilot

Claude Code has a /remote-control command let's you access the session from their phone app or a browser, is this better?

do i need to keep my laptop screen on all the time? how it is different from claude mobile connection?

Super

This is exactly what I wanted, love that the phone app has a native UI for agents like Pi instead of relying only on terminal renderers.

So just a mobile wrapper on agents running on some machines?

I had a look at this and I would plan to use this once launched to the public if the price point is good. I think other ai devs who work often on the move might find it interesting too. I haven’t tested it though, if all the plugins work in Claude code for example, or if any friction setting up new ones.

The problem is we never know if the next update doesn’t change the security to non existent and suddenly your computer is controlled by someone else.

I built something similar by forking Vibetunnel[0] and turned into a Next.js app that runs on my laptop. Then I connect my laptop and phone to the same Tailscale network and use the 100.xx on my phone to access the same application on my phone.

Your app is better than the web app I have since it's native, but we still need to use your CLI and daemon to work. Would be really nice if you supported Tailscale.

Also take a look at Zedra[1]. It's similar to yours and powered by Iroh[2] which will replace the need for Tailscale.

So this is something like https://paseo.sh ? I use that sometimes and like it. Not only mobile but also a web UI.

On your homepage you only compare with two proprietary ones. Please consider adding Paseo as well.

Hmm I've been working on something fairly similar. Looks like I can shelve/defer it :).

this is fucking so helpfulll!

NICE!

Looks really promising! I find the claude mobile app a bit lacking ie. slash commands missing (compacting or clearing etc.) Some feedback and questions:

- When I chat via the shellular app, I don't see the messages appear in my terminal. Is that expected? Using cmux fwiw.

- I'm using a Fable agent but the app is showing Opus. Have I been silently downgraded? Both CC and ccstatusline are showing Fable.

- On the home screen it seems to show my agents as well as sub-agents under active sessions whereas under the agents tab I only see what appears to be the main agents. Would be nice for this to be consistent across the screens as well as having a toggle to show/hide sub-agents.

- Loading the sub-agent doesn't bring up any chat history. Would be cool to see how the subagent is working.

- When I re-opened the app after about an hour of having it closed, it wasn't able to reconnect. I did update the mobile app in between so maybe that caused an issue.

Just yesterday I needed this and resorted to running the harness in a sprite[0] in a proot distro[1] in termux: while I appreciated the symbolism of recurrence, it was a pain to set up. Will have a look.

Will checkout Shellular.

Used paseo.sh which has Mac and iPhone app. Open source and works with many agents.

Also used Codex Relay App. That was nice but only works with one host.

Shellular plan to have a Mac app in the future?

In general, I think a great UI for coding agents that works across devices and remote boxes is god send.
