How to approve Claude Code from your phone.
To approve Claude Code from your phone, keep it on your own Mac or Windows PC and connect it to an app that sends you the plan before anything starts. With Nuntex you read the proposal on your phone, tap yes, and follow each step of the run live, with Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode working only in the folders you picked.

Two ways to use a coding AI from your phone
There are two different jobs here, and the right tool depends on which one you want.
- Drive a live session from your phone. Anthropic's own Remote Control lets you continue a Claude Code session you started on your computer from another device. You steer it as you would at the keyboard.
- Approve the work, then let it run. You read a written plan on your phone, say yes, and the run follows it inside limits you set. That is how Nuntex works, with Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode.
| Claude Code Remote Control | Nuntex | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Your live Claude Code session, continued on another device | Proposals you approve, carried out on your computer |
| Which AI | Claude Code | Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode, on your plan or an API key |
| How you steer | By working in the session | By approving a plan, guiding a step, or asking for changes |
| Where it may write | Wherever that session is allowed to | Only the folders you picked, each task on its own branch |
| Emails, posts, website changes | Up to how you set it up | Each one waits for its own yes |
| After the run | The session's own output | The checks it ran, the files it changed and the commit |
Set it up in five steps
- Have your AI on your computer: Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode signed in to your own plan, or an API key.
- Install Nuntex on your Mac or Windows PC and sign in. It finds your AI, tests it with one real answer, and asks which folders it may use.
- Sign in to Nuntex on your phone with the same account. It shows your computer getting ready, tick by tick.
- Approve a proposal on your phone, or tap a step of its plan to go ahead, guide it, skip it or mark it done yourself.
- Follow the live feed as it works, then read the proof. Website changes wait for you to put them live.
Run Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode from your phone, safely
A coding AI working while you are away needs limits that hold without you. In Nuntex they are built in: it writes only in the folders you pick, commits on its own branch, has an hour per run, and never takes an outward step without your tap. Your AI's login or API key stays on your computer, and Nuntex never sees it.
Your computer needs to be awake for the work to run. Your phone keeps your proposals and decisions anywhere, and the computer picks them up when it wakes.
Claude Code phone notifications
Nuntex notifies your phone when an approved run starts and again when it finishes or needs you, and holds notifications during the quiet hours you set. It does not ping you from a Claude Code session you are running yourself in a terminal. For that, Claude Code's own hooks are the right tool.
Questions
Questions about approving Claude Code from your phone.
Can I answer Claude Code's permission prompts from my phone?
Not with Nuntex. Nuntex does not mirror a live terminal session: you approve the job and its plan up front, and the run stays inside the folders you picked. For a live session, use Anthropic's Remote Control.
Does it work with Codex and OpenCode too?
Yes. Nuntex works with Claude Code, Codex or OpenCode on your Mac or Windows PC, held to the same limits.
Does Nuntex see my Claude login or API key?
No. Your AI is signed in on your computer, and the key stays in your Keychain or Windows Credential Manager.
Does my computer need to be on?
Yes, awake, for the work to run. Your phone keeps your decisions until it wakes.
Can I watch the work while it runs?
Yes. The live feed shows each step on your phone as it happens, and the run ends with the checks it ran and the commit it made.
Will my phone tell me when the work is done?
Yes, for work Nuntex runs: a notification when it starts and when it finishes or needs you. It does not watch Claude Code sessions you start yourself.
