Official Remote Control: Advanced Workflows

⏱ Est. reading time: 3 min Updated on 5/7/2026

Remote Control enables several powerful workflows that go beyond simple chat.

Typical Scenarios

Scenario Operation
Mobile Continuation Use /remote-control → Continue on mobile app while away.
Cross-device Resume Machine A /teleport → Continue on Machine B.
Agent Notifications Enable push → Claude calls push notification tool when a task ends.
Remote Plan Review Generate a plan in plan mode → Review/Edit/Approve on your phone.

Advanced Capabilities

  • Ultraplan / Ultrareview: Claude.ai subscribers can trigger cloud-based multi-agent tasks. /ultrareview for PRs was added in v2.1.110.
  • Background Agents: Long-running tasks can be moved to the background, and their status is visible in the Remote Control client.
  • Sync Features: Accent colors (/color) and session names (/rename) sync bi-directionally between CLI and Web.

A Typical Sequence

mempalace

MemPalace is a local-first AI memory tool designed to store conversation history verbatim and retrieve it through semantic search, without summarizing or paraphrasing. It utilizes a structured index, categorizing information into "wings," "rooms," and "drawers" to enable scoped searches. The retrieval layer is pluggable (ChromaDB by default), ensuring all data remains on the user's machine unless opted out. It achieves an impressive 96.6% R@5 raw recall on the LongMemEval benchmark, notably without requiring LLMs or API calls, showcasing high performance in a local environment.

code-review-graph

code-review-graph is an AI-assisted code review tool that builds a structural map of code using Tree-sitter and incrementally tracks changes to provide precise context to AI assistants via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This approach significantly reduces token consumption by enabling AI models to read only the minimal set of files relevant to a change, rather than the entire codebase. It aims to solve the token waste problem in large repositories and monorepos, improving the efficiency and quality of AI code reviews.

claude-context

Claude Context is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) plugin developed by Zilliztech, designed to provide deep code context to Claude Code and other AI coding assistants. It leverages semantic search to efficiently retrieve relevant code snippets from entire codebases, injecting them directly into the AI's context. This approach addresses the limitations of context windows and high costs associated with large codebases by storing the codebase in a vector database for efficient management and cost-effectiveness.
