Multiplex Remote keeps you connected to the terminal and Coding agents like Claude code sessions running on your Mac, from your phone. Pair your iPhone with the Multiplex app on your Mac and pick up any running session: watch live output, type commands, and respond the moment Claude Code needs your input. TERMINAL, WHEREVER YOU ARE Every paired session is a real terminal, mirrored from your Mac in real time. Scroll back through history, use the on-screen arrow keys and modifiers, or fit the output to your phone's width for readable text on the smallest screens. NEVER MISS A "NEEDS YOU" MOMENT Get a lock screen Live Activity and a notification the instant a Claude Code session is waiting on you, so you can approve, answer, or steer it without opening your Mac. GIT, WITHOUT LEAVING THE SESSION Open the built-in git inspector to browse changes, diffs, commit history, and branches for the repo your session is working in. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your session reaches your phone through a relay that only ever routes opaque traffic between your own devices. Pairing uses a one-time code shown on your Mac and confirmed on your phone. Requires the free Multiplex app on your Mac.
