Lio the chameleon stretched across a laptop, a phone and a tablet, its skin changing colour to match each screen

Your machine. Every screen.

Your editor,
every device.

VS Code keeps running on your own machine, with your files, extensions, and terminal. Chamelio adapts it to your phone, tablet, or any browser. The code never leaves home.

The relay forwards traffic. Your code stays home.

Your files never sync to a server. The only copy of your code is on your machine; traffic in between is protected by TLS.

Encrypted in transit
Traffic is encrypted in transit between your browser, our relay and your machine. The relay forwards it and never stores or logs what passes through.
Every machine is approved by you
A new agent only joins your account after you confirm its code from a browser you're signed in to.
No passwords to leak
Sign in with a one-time email link or Google. There's nothing to phish or reuse.
Revoke in one click
Remove a device from the dashboard and its token stops working immediately.

Keystrokes travel to your machine in white, its replies come back in yellow. Both are encrypted in transit.

One session. It adapts to every screen.

It's one VS Code server on your machine. Close the laptop, pick up your phone: same files, same terminal, same cursor.

The couch. The night train. A borrowed laptop.

Your machine keeps running at home. Open its editor from wherever you happen to be, with nothing to sync and nothing to carry.

  • On the couch, from your phone
  • On the night train, from a tablet
  • At a café, on a borrowed laptop

Your setup, not a cloud copy of it.

Real VS Code
Your extensions, keybindings, settings, and integrated terminal. Not a lookalike.
Your AI agents, in one list
Claude Code sessions from every computer you own, side by side. Watch them work and reply from any screen.
Approve from your pocket
When an agent asks permission, tap Allow on your phone instead of walking back to your desk.
Point at the problem
Open your dev server through a private link, draw on what's wrong, and send the note straight to Claude.
Talk instead of type
Dictate a prompt or hold a voice chat with your agent. Handy when all you have is a phone.
A workspace per project
Each folder gets its own editor on the same machine. Idle ones go to sleep on a timer you choose.

Questions, answered.

The short version of what people ask before they set it up.

Can I use VS Code on an iPad, an Android phone, or a Chromebook?

Yes. Chamelio keeps the real VS Code running on your own computer and opens it in the browser on any device, with a layout that adapts to phones and tablets. On Android there's also a dedicated app.

Does my code get uploaded to the cloud?

No. Your files, extensions and terminal stay on your computer. Chamelio's relay only forwards the connection between your screen and your machine.

How is this different from GitHub Codespaces or VS Code Remote Tunnels?

Codespaces rents you a cloud machine by the hour; Chamelio uses the computer you already own, with everything you've set up on it. Unlike a plain tunnel, it signs you in on any device, adapts the editor to small screens, and brings your AI agent sessions along.

Can I control Claude Code from my phone?

Yes. Every Claude Code session on your computers shows up in one list. You can follow along, reply, and approve permission prompts from your phone, so the agent keeps working while you're away from your desk.

Do I need to open ports, set up a VPN or manage certificates?

No. Install the agent with one command and approve the machine from your browser. It works behind home routers, NAT and firewalls.

Which computers does it work on?

Windows, macOS and Linux. The agent runs quietly in the background and keeps itself up to date.

What does it cost?

Every account starts with a free 30-day trial with everything included and no card needed. After that there's one Pro plan, priced for the country you live in.

Your machine is ready. Pick a screen.

Set it up once. After that, your editor and your agents go wherever you do.
