I’m not sure if you’re aware, but Claude Code’s built in remote control feature already lets you respond to permission prompts from the Claude app on your phone.
This is what i thought/hoped. But man it is surprisingly buggy. Connections drop so fast and flakily. So many times I steppedd out of the house in a rush hoping remote control would help stay connected. And every time ive been sorely disappointed. Fool me once, fool me ten times....
I built this for everyday cases like when I want to go make coffee while a terminal run is in progress and something needs approval. I get a notification and can instantly confirm or deny. Pulse also turns a boring terminal into something more visual so I can see exactly what claude is doing.
Thanks for sharing! The built-in tool is definitely nice, but as another user (felooboolooomba) mentioned below, official push notifications can sometimes drop out on certain devices like Android
I'll give this a try. CC already has a good /remote-control feature along with the mobile app. But it recently stopped sending me notifications on Android so it's not much use anymore.
I like the look of it - my main problem with remote control feature in CC is the inability to start a new terminal session on my computer - can I do that from Pulse?
Check out Hapi (https://hapi.run/) - it's a thin wrapper around claude/codex/gemini, you can pick-up sessions from your phone and start terminal sessions remotely. It's pretty good. I use this with Emdash (https://emdash.sh/) as an agentic development environment.
Not yet. Pulse only works with sessions that are already running. I intentionally kept it focused on monitoring what's happening and handling approvals because that's what I personally needed most.
A remote launcher would be cool though, and it's something I've thought about adding in the future.
samw with plan mode, it breaks everything in remote control and you cant get back out of it consistently
