Story

Claude Code v2.1.58 expanded Remote Control to more users -- start a terminal session on your workstation, scan a QR code, and control it from your phone or tablet. Local context (filesystem, env vars, MCP servers) stays active even when you're away from your desk. Simon Willison notes it's "a little bit janky right now" but calls it a clear signal of where coding agents are heading. Currently Research Preview for Max tier. Combined with Anthropic's simultaneous announcement of scheduled tasks in Cowork, Claude Code is moving toward always-on, device-independent agent workflows.
