Products that do what Vibe coding from your phone does
We built this on a whim for a hackathon, but I'm thinking to turn it into a real thing! Original GitHub repository at: https://github.com/Flux159/claude-code-go The desktop app exposes an interface to Claude Code, so you can run Claude Code from your phone.

I built Vibe Remote because I wanted to code from my bed or the park without lugging a laptop around. With tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini-cli, we don't need a full IDE for every task anymore. Vibe Remote turns your phone into a powerful remote console. Why it’s more than just a chat: * AI Agent Hub: Zero-config support for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode. * Built-in Web Preview: View your localhost services directly inside the app. Essential for UI debugging. * Full Session Management: Start a task on your Mac, grab your phone, and monitor progress from a cafe. * Dev Ops: Manage…

Hi HN — I built Catnip, an open-source iOS app that lets you run Claude Code against a real development environment from your phone. Under the hood it spins up a GitHub Codespace, installs Claude Code, and connects the iOS client to it securely. You can use a full terminal when needed, or a lightweight native UI for monitoring and interaction. I built this because Claude Code is most useful when it has access to a persistent environment with plugins, tools, and real repos — and I wanted that flexibility away from my laptop. GitHub gives personal users 120 free Codespaces hours/month,…

I was going through my app subscriptions and realized I was paying $15 for a pretty good workout app, which seemed a bit high to me. As a software engineer who is also well versed in claude code, I realized that I could likely vibecode a very similar app, or even build something more to my liking. I challenged my self to build something roughly equivalent this afternoon. Workflow was: start with a detailed spec from Claude code describing many of the features common in workout apps. Then paste this into lovable to have it build out the initial mvp. Once that was built, I used claude code…

I've been using Cursor, Co-Pilot, ChatGPT, Claude and what not since quite some time now, and we are at a stage where we can just "vibe code" whole apps from idea to execution in a few prompts. I tried this personally to create some side projects that solved little problems for me. But I always got stuck at a point where it just goes into an infinite loop of issues and can't solve the issue by itself. Well I'm a developer, so it's easier for me to dive into the code and solve the problem myself, but that would take a hell lot of time to understand all the code AI wrote for me. If I keep…

As an experiment I let Claude Code write 100% of the code to begin a project management application. Total spent: $30 Time: 2hours I did this so showcase what Claude produces and to also get feedback on how well you think it did.

This is my setup for lazy vibe coding from my phone Laziness is the goal, this is for fun, not business or personal development. I used it to make “Pac Man With Guns” Taking a break from all discourse on AI and its place in professional coding, it’s really fun to play and prototype games with it. I have limited time and focus, and it’s cool to take half and idea and get a workable thing https://github.com/AdmTal/pac-man-with-guns

Tried all SaaS Sales and GTM tools; ended up vibe-coding a simple tool that just works. Uses Claude Code as a backend (funny, I know). Helps enrich, qualify, and prepare high-quality reach-outs

Hola HN! Long time lurker, sometimes commentor, first time poster here. I’ve been working alongside my two co-founders and a few colleagues on a project I’m excited (and a little nervous) to share with you all! Like many of us, I’ve lived a tortured existence with AI coding (is it vibes?) over the past few months - I think November was a big moment with this. But, one thing I’ve noticed after building orchestration layer after orchestration layer is that the thing I always came back to was “what the hell is Claude Code actually doing?” Perhaps it’s because of the time Claude Code got…

I've been working on this internal project initially both to learn more Vibe-Coding but also to help our teams and projects to use AI more efficiently. As more people used it, it grew to support multiple teams/projects to analyze their Claude Code conversation and optimize them over time (understanding how to write better conversation with Claude Code and share knowledge between them) With time we added support for multiple Claude account management and monitor usage/rate limit. This is a simple project but has proved to be quite useful for our company. We have reached 5000+…

Polpo is an open-source mobile controller for AI coding agents. It runs a lightweight server on your machine and gives you a phone-friendly dashboard to manage sessions, send prompts, approve tool calls, and review plans. We just released v1.1.0 with support for 5 agents (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, OpenCode, Pi), skills management from the phone (browse/install/remove skills from skills.sh), and the ability to start new sessions without touching the terminal. The idea started because we wanted to kick off coding tasks from the couch and check on them from the phone. It grew from…

Hey HN, Over the past 10 months I've been using Claude Code heavily, and one limitation kept coming up: you can really only run one coding agent at a time. While one agent is refactoring something, the rest of the repo is basically blocked unless you start manually juggling branches and working directories. The core issue is that AI coding agents operate directly in your filesystem. If two agents run in the same working directory they quickly start stepping on each other’s changes. Git worktrees turned out to be a surprisingly good primitive for solving this. So I built ChatML, a Desktop app…

I got tired of screenshotting claude code sessions to share with teammates, so I built this. It converts session into beautiful web pages with proper rendering of tool calls. Works by parsing CC's session, extracting steps, then uploading to a simple sharing service. Takes about 2 seconds to generate a shareable link. Live examples: - https://cc.getpochi.com/s/IldMh27j (Research claude-code-share repo) - https://cc.getpochi.com/s/mrqGqgOT (Creating an issue in a GitHub repo)
