Monitor sessions, approve permissions, and send prompts — all from your pocket. Your AI pair programmer, wherever you are.
Forge Remote gives you full visibility and control over your Claude Code sessions without being chained to your desk.
Watch Claude Code sessions live with streaming output, tool calls, and file changes as they happen — with syntax highlighting.
Approve or deny tool permissions instantly via push notification. No more running back to your desk to unblock Claude.
Start new sessions or send follow-up prompts from anywhere. Keep the work flowing even when you're away from your machine.
Pair multiple machines — work laptop, home desktop, cloud VM — and switch between them seamlessly from a single app.
Get notified the moment Claude needs input, finishes a task, or hits an error. Stay in the loop without constant checking.
Your data lives in YOUR Firebase project. Zero vendor lock-in, zero data sent to third parties. Full sovereignty over your sessions.
Your data, your infrastructure, your rules. Here's what Firebase does under the hood and why BYOF matters.
When Claude Code runs on your desktop, the relay writes session data to Firestore. The mobile app listens with real-time snapshot listeners — updates appear on your phone instantly, no polling.
QR code pairing authenticates both your desktop and phone against the same Firebase project. Only you can see your sessions — secured by your own auth rules.
Permission requests, task completions, and errors trigger push notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging. Get alerts on your lock screen without any third-party service.
Session data (prompts, output, file paths) lives in YOUR Firebase project. Inspect, query, or delete it anytime from the Firebase Console. No middleman, no vendor lock-in.
No complex infrastructure. No paid services. Just Node.js, your Firebase project, and the app.
Run the init command to set up your Firebase project and configure authentication automatically. Works on macOS, Linux, and Windows.
$ npx forge-remote init
