What you can do from your phone
Your phone is enough.
DetachDev exposes your Claude Code® sessions through a standard MCP endpoint. Any AI app that supports MCP — Claude.ai®, ChatGPT®, or others — becomes a fully capable remote interface for your sessions.
Check session status
See which sessions are running, what they're working on, and whether any are waiting for your input — without touching a terminal.
Approve permission prompts
When Claude Code® pauses and waits for approval, respond from your phone. No SSH tunnel, no VPN, no context switching back to your desk.
Resume and send prompts
Resume a paused session or steer an active one by sending a new prompt — exactly as you would from your desktop AI client.
Switch between machines
If you have multiple dev machines registered, you can list and access sessions on any of them from the same phone interface.
How it works on mobile
Any AI app. One endpoint.
You don't need a dedicated mobile app. DetachDev gives you a personal MCP endpoint URL. Add it to the AI assistant you already use on your phone.
Claude.ai® on iOS or Android
Add your DetachDev endpoint as a custom integration in Claude.ai. Your sessions appear in the conversation context — ask Claude to list, resume, or interact with them naturally.
ChatGPT® on iOS or Android
Add your endpoint as a ChatGPT Action. Ask ChatGPT to check on your session, report back progress, or send a follow-up prompt to the running task.
Any MCP-capable client
DetachDev uses the standard MCP protocol over HTTPS. Any mobile AI tool that supports MCP can connect to your sessions without any additional setup.
