The terminal I use every day to run Claude Code and Codex — on my Mac, and on my iPhone when I walk away from it.

Coding agents work best when you let them run. The trouble is, they don't run for long before they need you. They stop to ask for permission, or to ask a question, and then they wait. If you've stepped away, they wait for a long time.

Screen sharing puts a tiny Mac on your phone that you have to pinch and squint at. A plain SSH app gets you a shell, but no idea which of your ten terminals actually needs you.

Lostty is a fast, native Mac terminal with an iPhone app built for exactly this. Every terminal keeps running on your Mac. Your phone shows you which one needs you, and you answer it right there. Then the phone goes back in your pocket.
