CLI

Supervise AI coding agents without an IDE

An agent running in a terminal doesn't need an IDE around it. codemote-cli strips that away and gives you just the loop that matters: launch, supervise, review, ship.

Every terminal-based coding agent — Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, opencode, Qwen Code — runs the same way: you start it from a shell, and it works. codemote-cli gives you that shell on any machine, with no editor open, installed, or required.

The minimal loop

$npx codemote-cli start

Pair, open a terminal, launch your agent, and supervise it from the app:

Approve, redirect or stop it by thumb or voice.
Let it keep running when you background the app — it’s on the machine, not the phone.
Review the diff it produced in the Git view before you push.

Why skip the editor

Some machines just don’t have one — a CI runner, a bare VPS, a container. Others do, but you don’t need it for this particular job: watching an agent work and deciding whether to ship its change. The CLI is built for exactly that minimal case.

Want the editor too? See running agents through the VS Code extension instead. For the full rundown of which agents this works with — Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, opencode, Qwen Code and more — see Run any AI coding agent CLI from a server.

Questions

Do I need an IDE installed anywhere for this to work?

No. codemote-cli is a standalone Node.js package — install it, run it in a project folder, and you get a terminal to launch and supervise an agent in, with no editor involved.

Take your dev environment with you.

Drive your AI agents, terminals and Git from your phone — with no cloud copy of your code.
