Claude Code Mobile

I wanted to use Claude Code from my phone. After reading granda.org’s excellent guide, I adapted the approach for my setup: a Mac Mini M4 at home for speed, and a Hostinger VPS for client work that needs isolation.

My Setup

For daily development — OrbStack VM on my Mac Mini. Sub-100ms latency, no ongoing costs, and my code stays local.

For client/sensitive work — Hostinger VPS. Complete separation from personal data, works from anywhere.

Both connect via Tailscale mesh VPN, so my phone sees them as local devices.

The Stack

Tool	Purpose
mosh	Survives network switches and phone sleep
tmux	Session persists when I disconnect
Tailscale	Secure mesh VPN, no port forwarding
Pushover	Push notification when Claude needs input

The key insight from the original guide: use Claude Code’s hooks to send a push notification whenever it asks a question. I can start a task, pocket my phone, and get pinged when needed.

Quick Aliases

Mobile typing is slow, so everything is abbreviated:

alias cc='claude --dangerously-skip-permissions'
alias ccc='claude --continue --dangerously-skip-permissions'
