Hey ya’ll, Ishaan and Kartik here. We're building Omnara (https://omnara.com/), an “agent command center” that lets you launch and control Claude Code from anywhere: terminal, web, or mobile — and easily switch between them.

Run 'pip install omnara && omnara', and you'll have a regular Claude Code session. But you can continue that same session from our web dashboard (https://omnara.com/) or mobile app (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/omnara-ai-command-center/id674...).

Check out a demo here: https://www.loom.com/share/03d30efcf8e44035af03cbfebf840c73.

Before Omnara, we felt stuck watching Claude Code think and write code, waiting 5-10 minutes just to provide input when needed. Now with Omnara, I can start a Claude Code session and if I need to leave my laptop, I can respond from my phone anywhere. Some places I've coded from include my bed, on a walk, in an Uber, while doing laundry, and even on the toilet.

There are many new Claude Code wrappers (e.g., Crystal, Conductor), but none keep the native Claude Code terminal experience while allowing interaction outside the terminal, especially on mobile. On the other hand, tools like Vibetunnel or Termius replicate the terminal experience but lack push notifications, clean UIs for answering questions or viewing git diffs, and easy setup.

We wanted our integration to fully mirror the native Claude Code experience, including terminal output, permissions, notifications, and mode switching. The Claude Code SDK and hooks don't support all of this, so we made a CLI wrapper that parses the session file at ~/.claude/projects and the terminal output to capture user and agent messages. We send these messages to our platform, where they're displayed in the web and mobile apps in real time via SSE. Our CLI wrapper monitors for input from both the Omnara platform and the Claude Code CLI, continuing execution when the user responds from either location. Our entire backend is open source: https://github.com/omnara-ai/omnara.

Omnara isn't just for Claude Code. It's a general framework for any AI agent to send messages and push notifications to humans when they need input. For example, I've been using it as a human-in-the-loop node in n8n workflows for replying to emails. But every Claude Code user we show it to gets excited about that application specifically so that’s why we’re launching that first :)

Omnara is free for up to 10 agent sessions per month, then $9/month for unlimited sessions. Looking forward to your feedback and hearing your thoughts and comments!
