What
Start Claude Code with Remote Control enabled directly from the command line, optionally naming the session.
Usage
claude --remote-control
claude --remote-control my-project
claude --rc my-project # shorthand aliasDetails
- Launches Claude in "spawn mode," which lets you create new sessions in the current project from Claude Code on Web or the Mobile app
- Supports
--spawn=same-dir(default) or--spawn=worktreefor git worktree isolation - Includes a circuit breaker: if Remote Control encounters repeated failures, it disables itself for the session with a message to restart
- Checks account eligibility and shows
"Remote Control is not enabled for your account; --rc flag ignored."if unavailable
Evidence
Remote Control spawn mode (search for "--remote-control", "Alias for --remote-control", "Remote Control disabled after repeated failures")
