Hi everyone! I'm Kaushik, a backend engineer doing a Masters in Data Science at RMIT in Melbourne.

I've been building Claude Remote, a Claude Code plugin that lets me start Claude Code sessions on my own PC from my phone, with my whole setup loaded. My first post here will be about why I built it, and the bugs that passed every test along the way.

Looking forward to reading what everyone's building. Say hi if you're into developer tools or Claude Code!

Welcome Kaushik! What inspired you to create Claude Remote in the first place?

Hey Francis, thanks for taking time to reply! I built Claude remote to access my codebase WITH my custom hooks, rules and skills, because I didn’t want it to go via discord or any other apps except the stack I’m familiar with (tailscale and SSH uk?)

Yea that's fair. I found that interesting to see you built, so I wanted to know the reason since I was curious. Good work either way!

Hi Kaushik! That custom Claude remote setup sounds incredibly smart. I've also been diving deep into AI agents and recently built an MCP Server for Claude during a hackathon to handle custom tools and workflows. Bypassing other apps and using SSH/Tailscale for direct access is a great architectural choice. I'd love to connect and learn more about how you structured those custom skills!

Thanks Jose! Small correction that's actually part of the story: it's Tailscale only, with no SSH. SSH was my first design, but a terminal on a phone screen turned out to be the wrong tool for driving Claude, so the phone just taps "start" and the Claude app does the rest.

My skills stay private since they're tailored to how I work, but the general idea is simple: short written playbooks for how I plan, review and ship, which Claude Code follows in every project. Happy to connect and chat about it! What does your MCP server handle? I'm always curious what tools people end up wiring in šŸ¤

Hi Kaushik, welcome! Claude Remote sounds like a really practical idea. I'm especially curious about the "bugs that passed every test" part of your first post, those are usually the most valuable stories. Looking forward to reading it!

Hi Kaushik! I'm also a backend engineer working with AI agents. Keeping your own hooks and rules when connecting from your phone sounds useful. Can you approve tool calls remotely too, or mainly start and check on sessions? Looking forward to the bug stories šŸ™‚

Hey Margarita, thanks for taking time to reply! Lovely to meet a fellow background dev working with AI.
I can approve tool calls purely because of the fact that the sessions get started automatically with --dangerously-skip-permissions. This is not a problem personally as the skills/hooks/rules I have set up (which is the whole point of claude-remote) ensure that no harmful actions take place (like git push, deployement etc) without explicit approval.

Thanks, that means a lot! Running a whole solo setup from your phone is exactly the life I built this for. The best ideas never seem to arrive when I'm at my desk. I'm curious what's in your stack. What do you find is still hard to do from mobile? That list is basically my roadmap. The repo goes public soon, so I'd love your take once you can try it.

Hey everyone! I'm Mridul, a lead software developer with 15+ years in industrial software — the stuff that runs laser-cutting machines, PLCs, and HMIs. Mostly C#/.NET, WPF, and Beckhoff TwinCAT/ADS.

I've spent most of my career writing code for the factory floor, which is a corner of dev you don't see much of on here — so I'm hoping to share some of the war stories and lessons. Excited to be part of the community!

Thanks Francis! Two things brought me here, really: after 15+ years I've got a pile of hard-won lessons that rarely get written down, and writing them out forces me to actually understand them properly. Industrial dev is a quiet niche online, so if these notes help even a few people who get thrown into it, that's a win. Appreciate the kind words — glad to be here.

Hey Mridul, welcome! That’s a really interesting background. I come from the software side but have also spent time working on the factory floor, so I’ve gained a lot more appreciation for the systems that actually keep production moving.

Thanks Clement, really appreciate the welcome! It's a corner of software that stays pretty hidden, so I'm hoping to pull the curtain back a bit. Part 1's already up if you fancy a look — more on the way.

Software that runs laser cutters is a curious thing to learn from. How does it differ from browser apps and servers?

Collapse
 
mridulkrishna profile image
Mridul Krishna •

Great question — honestly that could be a whole post on its own (adding it to the list!). The short version: in a web app the worst case is usually a 500 and a retry. Here the "server" is a physical machine with moving parts and a laser, so timing and state are part of correctness — a bug can damage hardware or hurt someone, not just fail a request. The PLC is always running its own control loop; my C# app is more of a guest that observes and commands it than the source of truth. And there's no "just refresh" — the state is physical and real.
