i everyone, maker here 👋 The idea for itwillsync came from a small but annoying workflow problem I kept hitting while using coding agents. When you run tools like Claude Code, Copilot CLI, or Aider, tasks often take a few minutes to complete. During that time you’re either: • staring at the terminal waiting • or you walk away and miss when the agent asks for input Agents frequently pause for things like approvals, tool permissions, or clarification. If you’re not there, the workflow just stalls. I wanted a simple way to monitor and respond to my terminal from my phone without setting up heavy remote access tools or relying on cloud relays. Most existing solutions either: - depend on cloud infrastructure - lock you into a specific tool - or require subscriptions/accounts So I built itwillsync a small open-source tool that mirrors your terminal to your phone over your local network. The idea is simple: 1. Run your coding agent as usual 2. Start `itwillsync` 3. Scan a QR code 4. Your phone becomes a live terminal Everything stays **local (LAN)**, and it works with **any terminal-based agent** because it just wraps the process with a PTY. While building it, the biggest focus was keeping it: • agent-agnostic • local-first • extremely simple to run Right now it uses a PTY + WebSocket server with a browser client built on xterm.js. I’m especially curious about feedback on: - security model - multi-session workflows - agent-aware UI ideas Thanks for checking it out!
