Port22

The approval card answers the trust question well. What I'd want to know is the network side, is the phone talking to the Mac directly over the same wifi, or through a relay so it still works once you've actually left the house and you're on cellular? That's usually where local dev tools like this quietly stop working right when you need them most.

This is exactly the kind of thing I wish I had last week when an agent burned an hour waiting on a yes/no I never saw. One thing that would make it even better: let me set a default action per agent or per project for common prompts like file edits under a certain size, so my phone only buzzes when something actually needs my judgment instead of every little change.

the way it surfaces the actual approval prompt instead of making you guess at keystrokes is a really thoughtful touch. feels like you built it around the exact moment of frustration rather than building a dashboard first.

Tapping the actual option it offered instead of guessing a keystroke is the detail that sells this. Most remote-approval tools just fire an enter key and hope.

The actual options from the live session feels like the killer detail here. Not just “agent on your phone,” but the part where you can safely unblock it without guessing what’s happening back on the Mac. Also love the Port 22 name. Super clean concept, congrats on the launch.

Hi PH, The Go live is taking unexpectedly long from the app store review side, will surely update and relaunch as soon as it is doneSorry for the wait and thanks for the patience, Much appreciated!

Running coding agents from your phone is a surprisingly big unlock for reviewing and approving on the go. Congrats on the launch.

Reading the options off the live session instead of guessing a keystroke is the part that makes this usable. What I'd still get wrong on a phone is approving the right button for the wrong reason, because I can see "edit src/auth.ts" but not what's actually in the diff. If the approval card carries enough of the change to judge it, I'll clear a queue of these from a coffee shop. If it doesn't, I walk back to the Mac anyway and the buzz just moved the interruption earlier.

Cool Project. Now that codex , claude code and other providers are building native mobile apps, where do you see the differentiation for this product.

Hey PH 👋,

i build with claude code and codex most of the day. the thing that kept getting me
was starting a long run, walking away, and coming back 20 minutes later to find it
had been sitting there the whole time waiting for me to approve one file edit.

so i built port22. it puts every agent running on your mac onto your phone. you see
which ones are working and which are stuck. when one needs permission your phone
buzzes and you tap the real option it offered, not a guessed yes/no. it keeps going.

the name is port 22. the ssh port. the one you have typed a thousand times to reach
a machine that is somewhere else. felt right for a thing whose whole job is getting
you back to your mac from wherever you are.

a few things i cared about while building it:

- it attaches to what you already run. no wrapper, no special terminal, no config.
start claude the way you always do and it shows up.
- the buttons are the actual options on screen. approving the wrong thing because
the app guessed a keystroke is the worst possible bug in a tool like this, so it
reads them off the live session instead.
- off your network it goes through a relay that cannot read your code. everything is
end to end encrypted between your mac and your phone. no account, no sign up.

free for one mac and two sessions with every feature on. not a trial.

it is early and i would really like to know what breaks. if you run agents all day i
would love your feedback, especially on anything that feels slow or wrong. i will be
here all day answering everything.

thank you for looking!
