Claude Code's --remote-control flag exposes a running session to
claude.ai/code and the Claude iOS/Android
apps. The local PTY behavior is unchanged — claude prints a session
URL and a QR code at startup that you can scan from your phone or
open in a browser to attach remotely.
wsx passes --remote-control to every claude spawn (workspaces and
the PM pane) by default, so any session is reachable from your phone
without extra setup.
Toggle: disable with wsx config set remote_control false. With
it off, sessions are local-only and nothing is sent to Anthropic's
relay servers.
Sandbox: claude offers --sandbox as an extra safety wrapper for
remote-issued commands. Disabled by default in wsx; enable with
wsx config set remote_control_sandbox true.
Auth: the relay rides on your claude.ai account. If you're not signed in or you're offline, the local session continues to work and the remote relay just fails silently.
Privacy: enabling remote control routes session state through Anthropic's relay infrastructure. The session URL emitted in the PTY is also visible to anyone seeing your screen.
