A complete browser interface for Claude Code and Codex. Start and supervise agents from another computer, a tablet, or a phone while they run on the machines you control.

Use an eligible Claude or ChatGPT plan through the account already signed in to the official provider tool. Yep Anywhere can also show current subscription limits when the provider exposes them.

New server releases require Node.js ^22.16 || ^23.11 || >=24.10. Existing servers remain usable with the hosted client. See runtime upgrade guidance.

Features

• All your sessions, in one place — Find and resume every Claude Code and Codex session, including those started from CLIs, VS Code, and first-party desktop apps. Disconnect or switch devices without interrupting active work.
• See the whole session — Follow the complete conversation, tool calls, and available thinking, or use a condensed view when you only need the result.
• Work comfortably from a phone — Approve tools, answer questions, upload files and photos, use voice input, and receive attention notifications.
• Keep many agents organized — See every project in one inbox, watch activity across sessions, steer active work, queue follow-ups, search older sessions, catch up with recaps, and fork or clone conversations.
• Review and ship — Browse files, diffs, and blame; send line comments to an agent; check remotes, fast-forward pull, push, or share a session read-only.
• Control test devices remotely — Stream Android devices and Apple Simulators with touch controls and adaptive quality.
• Connect your way — Use a direct connection or the end-to-end encrypted public relay, with no device pairing, VPN, or port forwarding required for the relay path.

See the complete feature catalog and public documentation for availability and setup.

Works great on desktop too!

Getting Started

If you can install Claude Code or Codex, you can install this. The runtime has a narrow dependency surface.

Desktop apps (beta): Signed macOS and Windows installers are available on GitHub Releases. They are available now while release-readiness work continues.

npm (established path):

npm i -g yepanywhere
yepanywhere

Or, from source:

git clone https://github.com/kzahel/yepanywhere.git
cd yepanywhere
pnpm install
pnpm build
pnpm start

Open http://localhost:3400 in your browser. The app auto-detects installed CLI agents.

Keep the data directory on local disk. YA keeps a SQLite database in ~/.yep-anywhere, and SQLite takes a file lock per transaction. On a local disk that lock is free. On a network home directory (NFS, SMB, or any mounted share) each one is a network round trip, slow enough to stall the server. YA checks at startup and leaves the database closed on a share rather than stall, which costs you issue associations and learned speech vocabulary until you move it. Point YEP_DATA_DIR at local disk:

YEP_DATA_DIR=/scratch/$USER/.yep-anywhere yepanywhere

The complete phone and tablet experience is the responsive browser client. A native app should add more than an app-store wrapper, so Android is in development around reliable background notifications, deep links, trusted packaging, and a multi-server inbox, with iOS planned afterward. Neither is published. Follow the getting-started guide for the current platform choices.

Updating

For the npm-global install:

npm update -g yepanywhere

Then restart yepanywhere.

For a source checkout:

git fetch origin
git merge origin/main
pnpm install
pnpm build

Then restart the server with pnpm start.

Remote Access

Easiest: Use our free public relay when you want passworded, end-to-end encrypted access from any browser. Configure it in Settings, or via CLI for headless setups:

yepanywhere --setup-remote-access --username myserver --password "secretpass123"

Then connect from anywhere at yepanywhere.com/remote.

Remote Access application traffic is end-to-end encrypted, so the relay cannot read session contents. Public session shares are a separate opt-in path: the current relay operator can read shared content. No accounts are required.

Private network: If you only need to reach a solo install from your phone, a VPN such as Tailscale is usually simpler than deploying your own relay: put the phone and dev machine on the same private network, then open the Yep Anywhere server from the phone.

Self-hosted web access: Prefer to run your own public infrastructure? Use Caddy or any reverse proxy with SSL termination. See the remote access guide for details.

Why not just use the terminal?

You can use the terminal on your phone — but monospace text is painful on a small screen, there's no file upload, no push notifications, and no way to see all your sessions at once. This gives you a proper UI while keeping everything self-hosted and running your code locally.

Comparison to Other Tools

There are a lot of projects in this space. We track them all: docs/competitive/all-projects.md

Development

See DEVELOPMENT.md for build instructions, configuration options, and contributor guidance. For deeper technical context, see the project architecture and client rendering and performance guide.

TOS Compliance

Yep Anywhere uses the official @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk published by Anthropic. We don't handle authentication, spoof headers, or manipulate OAuth tokens. You authenticate via your own Claude CLI — we're just a remote interface to your sessions.
