CodeAgent — Remote AI Supervision
The workflow-continuity bridge for AI coding agents. Supervise, approve, and redirect the agents running in VS Code, Cursor, or Windsurf from any device — async.

Why this extension
AI agents now run for hours, not seconds. Most developer workflows still pin you to a single screen while that happens. This extension turns your editor into the agent's home base — the agent keeps writing, refactoring, and shipping while a paired phone / browser becomes your remote checkpoint.
- Stay in the loop while a long refactor builds
- Approve diffs, redirect prompts, or course-correct from anywhere
- Hand off work between devices without breaking the session
- Share live agent sessions with teammates in Team Spaces
Features
- One-tap pairing: pair your phone with VS Code via QR or 6-digit code
- Auto-detect agents: works with whatever AI extension is already installed (Copilot, Claude, Codeium, etc.)
- Async prompt relay: send prompts from anywhere; agent runs locally in your IDE
- MCP server config: configure Model Context Protocol servers from your phone
- Live status: monitor the paired session + agent state from the sidebar
