The Pitch

You're at the beach. Phone buzzes — production's on fire.

Old you: Panic. Find WiFi. Open laptop. Wait for IDE. Lose your tan.

Vibe Remote you: Open Slack, Discord, Telegram, or WeChat. Type "Fix the auth bug in login.py". Watch Claude Code fix it in real-time. Approve. Sip margarita.

AI works. You live.

Install in 10 Seconds

curl -fsSL https://avibe.bot/install.sh | bash && vibe

Open source — view the script on GitHub. The short URL is a 307 redirect to that file.

That's it. Browser opens -> Follow the wizard -> Done.

Need to open the Web UI from another device or a remote server? Run:

vibe remote

Windows?

We recommend the WSL setup on Windows because it has the best compatibility.

• Recommended: Run Vibe Remote with WSL from Scratch

If you are new to WSL, this guide explains:

• where to install WSL
• which terminal window to use
• where to run the Vibe Remote install command
• how to launch Ubuntu and open the Web UI

What Ships Today

Not an agent framework. Not a hosted coding VM. Vibe Remote is the remote-control layer for the coding agents already running on your machine.

• Chat apps become terminals: Slack, Discord, Telegram, WeChat, and Lark / Feishu.
• Real coding agents, no middleman: Claude Code, OpenCode, and Codex run as themselves.
• Thread = session: Start five threads, run five isolated jobs, resume later.
• Web setup, not token archaeology: Local wizard, dashboard, routing, and health checks.
• Remote UI when you need it: vibe remote opens your local Web UI through a secure avibe.bot tunnel.
• Walk away without losing the loop: Completion notifications, scheduled tasks, and async hooks keep work moving.

Why This Exists

Problem	Solution
Claude Code is amazing but needs a terminal	Slack/Discord/Telegram/WeChat/Lark IS your terminal now
Context-switching kills flow	Stay in one app
Start on desktop, continue on phone	Resume the exact agent session from the current project in seconds
Can't code from phone	Yes you can
Multiple agents, multiple setups	One chat app, any agent

Supported Agents:

• Claude Code — Deep reasoning, complex refactors
• OpenCode — Fast, extensible, community favorite
• Codex — OpenAI's coding model

Meet Vibey

Lives in your Slack, Discord, Telegram, Lark, or WeChat. Reads the room. Picks up where you left off. Asks the right question when it's not sure. Goes quiet when you're heads-down. Ships at 2am because that's when the vibe hits — then leaves a note about what it touched.

Vibe Remote is the wire. Vibey is the colleague on the other end.

Forgets nothing. Holds opinions. Says thanks when you fix its bugs.

Why Vibe Remote over OpenClaw?

	Vibe Remote	OpenClaw
Setup	One command + web wizard. Done in 2 minutes.	Gateway + channels + JSON config. Expect an afternoon.
Security	Local-first. Socket Mode / WebSocket only. No public endpoints, no inbound ports, minimal attack surface.	Gateway exposes ports. More moving parts, more attack surface.
Token cost	Thin transport layer — relays messages between your IM and agent. Zero LLM overhead from the middleware itself.	Every message carries a long system context for maintaining agent persona, IM tooling, and orchestration plumbing. Tokens burn on overhead before your actual task even starts.

OpenClaw is a personal AI assistant — great for casual chat, but its always-on agent loop makes it expensive for real productivity workloads. Vibe Remote is not an agent framework. It's a remote control — a minimal bridge between your chat app and whatever AI agent you already use. It adds no extra intelligence layer, no extra token spend, and no extra attack surface. Every token goes straight to your task.

Highlights

Setup Wizard One-command install, guided configuration. No manual token juggling.

Dashboard Real-time status, health monitoring, and quick controls.

Channel Routing Per-channel agent configuration. Different projects, different agents.

Instant Notifications

Get notified the moment your AI finishes. Like assigning tasks to employees — delegate, go do something else, and come back when the work is done. No need to babysit.

Thread = Session

Each Slack/Discord/Telegram/WeChat/Lark chat scope is an isolated workspace. Open 5 chats, run 5 parallel tasks. Context stays separate.

Resume Anywhere

Laptop closed. Commute started. Production still needs you.

Vibe Remote lets you reopen real agent sessions from your current working directory across Claude Code, OpenCode, and Codex. Pick the latest session, jump from desktop to mobile, and keep going without re-explaining the task, hunting for an old thread, or losing the thread of thought.

Interactive Prompts

When your agent needs input — file selection, confirmation, options — your chat app pops up buttons or a modal. Full CLI interactivity, zero terminal required.

Scheduled Tasks & Async Hooks

Ask your agent to schedule work for later, repeat a prompt on a cron, or queue a one-shot async follow-up after a long-running job.

• Persist recurring or one-off prompts with vibe task
• Queue a single async send with vibe hook send
• Keep session context and delivery target separate when needed

📡 Your Machine, In Your Pocket — Powered by avibe.bot

Your Vibe Remote runs on your machine. You don't sit in front of it 24/7.

You're on a plane. At a café. Holding someone else's borrowed laptop. The bot just pinged you that a job needs attention — and the control panel is back home.

vibe remote

One command. Your local Web UI becomes reachable from any browser on Earth — through a secure avibe.bot tunnel.

• 🌍 Your own you-app.avibe.bot — 30-second sign-in, your slug for life
• 🔒 Fail-closed at every join — Auth, routing, host checks default to "deny"
• 📱 Mobile-aware UI — Thumb-friendly layout, designed for borrowed screens
• ⏱ 24-hour sessions — Cookie auto-renews mid-session, no sudden logouts

No VPN. No port forwarding. No "wait what's my IP again." No public webhooks pointed at your laptop. Your data plane stays on your machine; avibe.bot is just the control-plane handshake.

Your agents work on your machine. You command them from your pocket.

→ Set it up in 60 seconds

How It Works

1. You type in Slack/Discord/Telegram/WeChat/Lark: "Add dark mode to the settings page"
2. Vibe Remote routes to your configured agent
3. Agent reads your codebase, writes code, streams back
4. You review in your chat app, iterate in thread

Your data never leaves your machine. Vibe Remote runs locally and connects via Slack Socket Mode, Discord Gateway, Telegram Bot API long polling, WeChat polling, or Lark WebSocket.

Instant Agent Switching

Need a different agent mid-conversation? Just prefix your message:

Plan: Design a new caching layer for the API

That's it. No menus, no commands. Type AgentName: and your message routes to that agent instantly.

---

Per-Channel Routing

Different projects, different agents:

#frontend    → OpenCode (fast iteration)
#backend     → Claude Code (complex logic)  
#prototypes  → Codex (quick experiments)

Configure in web UI → Channels.

---

CLI

vibe          # Start everything
vibe status   # Check if running
vibe stop     # Stop everything
vibe doctor   # Diagnose issues
vibe task     # Create and manage scheduled tasks
vibe hook     # Queue one-shot async sends

Prerequisites

You need at least one coding agent installed:

OpenCode (Recommended)

curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

Required: Add to ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json to skip permission prompts:

{
  "permission": "allow"
}

Claude Code

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

Codex

npm install -g @openai/codex

---

Security

• Local-first — Vibe Remote runs on your machine

• Your data — Stays on your disk, sent only to your chosen AI provider

---

Uninstall

vibe stop && uv tool uninstall vibe-remote && rm -rf ~/.vibe_remote
