Source Overview
This guide explains how to set up Claude Code on your phone using SSH, Tailscale, and Termux by connecting remotely to a desktop or VPS that runs Claude Code continuously.
The setup involves installing Claude Code and tmux on your desktop, configuring Tailscale on both devices to create a secure private network, installing Termux on Android, and then SSH-ing into your desktop to start a persistent tmux session where you can run Claude Code. This approach avoids proprietary mobile apps and managed services while providing full terminal access, session persistence across disconnections, port forwarding for testing, and the ability to resume development work exactly where you left off.
