Is there a native way to work remotely with Claude/Codex on a local folder or git repo on your main machine without having to connect it to GitHub? For creating apps for personal use I’d rather just keep the files local.

Edit: Running into issues setting it up on Windows. There's no "/remote-control" command in the CLI, so I installed the Windows Codex app. Then I updated the iOS app which now has the "Codex" feature in the sidebar, which should allow remote access to the Windows machine's instance - except it doesn't connect. The iOS app shows my desktop's hostname, so it knows there's an instance there, but refuses to connect. Issues like this would persuade a lot of folks to switch back to Claude.

This is what /remote-control does in Claude Code, once it's running on your main machine. You can open it up in the phone app.

That’s this announcement.

		I ask because I tried the other week to use /remote-control in Claude, and it prompted to connect a Github repo with no local alternative. Things may have changed since then. My experience today with the new Codex remote control has been that it doesn't connect at all.

I wish codex supported this, I use it all the time for claude.

I think the `/remote-control` feature does this, if I understand you correctly.

It's supposed to. I've always found it buggy and unreliable but maybe that's just me. (This command exists in Claude btw not sure about Codex)

		Looks like codex has it too since last week, https://github.com/openai/codex/releases/tag/rust-v0.130.0

		You can also connect remotely. Tailscale to connect to your network/machine. Then use SSH to login. Then use tmux to persist the session even if you log out.

Does it work on windows? And how do you then remote in?
