Feature request

When viewing a Claude Code session via remote control, the viewer should be able to:

  1. Approve or deny tool calls — currently the person who started the session must be at their machine to approve. If you're away from your desk and monitoring via remote control on your phone, you can't unblock a waiting tool call.

  2. Send messages — allow the remote viewer to type and submit messages into the session, not just observe.

Motivation

Remote control is currently view-only. The main use case where it falls short is when Claude is waiting for human input (tool approval, a clarifying question) and the user is away from their machine. Being able to respond from the Claude mobile or web app would make remote control genuinely useful for async/mobile workflows.

TL;DR

Enable remote approval and messaging capabilities for Claude Code sessions to enhance remote control functionality.

Guidance

  • Identify the current limitations of the remote control feature, specifically the inability to approve tool calls and send messages.
  • Consider implementing a system to allow remote viewers to interact with the session, potentially through a mobile or web app.
  • Develop a user interface for remote viewers to approve or deny tool calls and send messages to the session.
  • Ensure that any new functionality is properly integrated with the existing remote control feature.

Notes

The implementation details of the new functionality are not specified, and the exact technical requirements are unclear.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by designing a new user interface for remote control that includes approval and messaging capabilities, as this would directly address the stated limitations of the current feature.
