## AI overview

A personal account of using the Claude Code iOS app on an iPhone 17 Pro to work with remote sessions during a two-week trip. The setup generally supported the author's productivity and autonomy goals, but a remote-access issue required using a laptop and configuring the home network.

## Source excerpt

The last two weeks of my life have been quite transient. More so than the time I hopped a plane to San Francisco, interviewed for 5 hours, and hopped back on a plane back to Florida the same evening. The trek started in Texas with a road trip that passed through 11 states, ending up in Rhode Island where my daughter is attending college. The weather was beautiful, but only for a moment as the next leg included a flight down to North Carolina to give Charlotte a test run. As a newly minted empty nest couple, it's time for a change. Austin was fantastic when we moved there, but since the COVID-19 pandemic and the great migration of folks from California to Austin, the town feels like a shell of what it used to be. I refer to it as "The Formerly Weird City of Austin" (trademark pending). I'll talk more about Charlotte in another post, but the early feeling is that it feels more like the Austin we moved to than the one we'll be leaving. My intentionally limited technical stack So, this whirlwind trip felt like a good time to try to stay away from the computer as much as possible. That didn't mean I wasn't going to try to eke out some productivity. My on the go technical stack included my iPhone 17 Pro and the Claude Code iOS app connected to a remote session back at my house for the majority of everything I was able to get knocked out. Laptop was with me, and it made a brief appearance so I could write a couple of blog posts. There was also a small snafu with my remote session that warranted an actual keyboard (I'll touch on that in a bit), and once more to watch some late night Impractical Jokers, as that tends to be the thing we watch when vacationing. In addition to my thin tech stack, I did have one north star: don't walk back any of the autonomy we already have in place. I am working towards a system that needs me less and not more. Only one issue, but it was a doozy Generally speaking, everything "worked" just as you'd expect. Talk to the harness to start the game
