## What is Glasswing Remote?

Your Mac keeps working. Your iPhone tells you when it needs you. Glasswing Remote connects directly to the coding agents already working on your own Mac, plus its terminals, files, slides and screen. The Mac app is free.

KNOW WHAT NEEDS YOU
The Workspace sorts your sessions into Needs you, Working and Idle. Group them by project, filter by Codex or Claude, or jump in from a widget or the app icon.

ANSWER FROM A NOTIFICATION
When an agent asks something, the question arrives with choices, switches and a note field. Answer in the notification and confirm with Face ID. The Inbox works without an account, and push alerts are optional.

READ THE WORK, NOT THE TERMINAL
Agent sessions read like a conversation, formatted from the agent's own log. Switch to Activity for the steps, or choose All output for the unchanged terminal. The agent's input box stays live at the bottom. Dictate prompts with push to talk. Sessions keep running on your Mac, and the history stays readable offline.

CHECK YOUR ALLOWANCE
See Codex and Claude usage together, with allowance charts and forecasts. Shared accounts across your Macs appear once. Open Usage from a session, the Workspace or a Mac screen.

YOUR MAC'S FILES, OFFLINE TOO
Browse folders, preview documents, and edit Markdown and text with changes saved back to the Mac. Pre-cache Folder downloads a whole folder before you lose signal. Documents remember your reading position, including offline. Hold an embedded image or file link for Quick Look. Your agents can also send links, reports and sites to your Inbox.

TODOS ON APPLE WATCH
Dictate a Todo on your Watch, or add one on the Mac. Your agents can read the same list and update it. A watch-face shortcut opens capture in one tap.

THINK AND PRESENT WITH SLIDES
Describe an idea and an agent turns it into slides and diagrams. Say what to change and look again. Use it to work out a design on your own or to give a talk. On a connected display, your phone keeps the notes, and new slides wait until you show them. On the Watch, use Next, Back and Blank, or pick a slide with the Digital Crown.

SESSIONS ON A BIG SCREEN
By cable or AirPlay, show up to four sessions side by side. Choose on your phone which one gets the keyboard.

CONTROL YOUR MAC
View a display or choose from each Mac's window list. Zoom, point, tap, scroll and type with Mac modifier keys. Share the clipboard and record sessions.

YOUR DEVICES, YOUR DATA
Pair by scanning a QR code on your Mac. Credentials stay on your iPhone behind Face ID or your passcode. Everything travels directly between your devices. Optional push uses Sign in with Apple, without your name or email, through a relay to Apple's push service. Choose a generic alert, a readable title, or end-to-end encrypted text and images. No subscription, in-app purchases, ads or tracking.

AT HOME OR AWAY
Use your local network at home and your router's WireGuard server when away. The tunnel runs inside Glasswing, reaches only your Mac and leaves your system VPN alone. Glasswing is not a VPN service.

REQUIREMENTS
iOS 27 or later. An Apple Silicon Mac on macOS 27 or later, awake and logged in, with the free Glasswing for Mac app. Screen Recording and Accessibility enable viewing and control. Terminals need tmux; agent sessions need the agent's own tool on the Mac. Watch features need a paired Apple Watch on watchOS 27 or later. Remote access needs your router's WireGuard server, such as a UniFi gateway.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 2.1.1 — 2026-11-03

Glasswing Remote 2.1.1 adds usage forecasts and makes sessions and documents easier to return to.

• See Codex and Claude allowance together, with usage charts, forecasts and saved readings for offline viewing.
• Filter Workspace sessions by agent type. Open each Mac's windows from one row, with the window count beside it.
• Keep your place in terminal history when changing detail level. All output shows the unchanged terminal.
• Return to your reading position in Markdown documents. Embedded images keep their proportions and support Quick Look.
• Choose any browsed folder as a session's default Files location.
• Improved session activity reporting, keyboard layout and reload prompts after Mac updates.

For terminal sessions, update the free Mac companion too. Download it from the Glasswing product page.

### 2.1 — 2026-10-30

Glasswing Remote 2.1 adds folder pre-caching and improves Watch Todos and terminal reading.

• Prepare folders for offline use. Pre-cache Folder includes subfolders, checks available cache space before downloading, and reports when everything selected is ready. You can open a file while the batch runs.
• Save a Watch Todo as soon as you tap Done. Watch-face and Smart Stack shortcuts make capture easier and show your open Todos. Completing a Todo removes it from the list.
• Follow links in agent replies. Web links open a preview, Mac file links open in Files, and other links offer Copy and Open.
• Return to a steadier session. This update fixes live-pane flicker, keyboard layout after visiting Files, incorrect Working status, and a recurring control warning after using an external display.
• Questions within reach. Open pending questions from the row under a session's title, keep drafts through interrupted work, and see the current unread count.

Update the free Mac companion for the Mac-side status and session-recovery improvements.

### 2.0.1 — 2026-10-26

Glasswing Remote 2.0.1 makes agent sessions readable and puts them on a big screen.

• Transcripts: an agent session now opens as your prompts and its answers, formatted from the agent's own log, with headings, code and your prompts set apart. Conversation adds thinking summaries, Activity adds every tool step, and All output keeps the plain terminal.
• Live pane: below a divider, the agent's input box and status rows stay in view and grow when a menu opens. Drag the divider for more of the terminal.
• External display: by cable or AirPlay, put up to four sessions side by side, 34 rows each, and a presentation's slide beside them or alone on the display.
• Transcripts follow a running turn, catch up after a relaunch, and keep your reading position when you switch levels.
• Fixes: full-screen slides draw diagrams whole, and the Workspace inbox row reads more clearly.

Requires the free Glasswing for Mac 1.0 on an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 27 or later. This version needs the newest Glasswing for Mac from https://www.brrai.nz/products/glasswing/

### 2.0 — 2026-10-24
