# Build From My Phone In Cloud Environments
|
|
|
|
I mostly use Claude Code from a terminal with the `claude` CLI. Everything is
|
|
running on my machine (except the inference). The codebase is already there, the
|
|
feature branch is already in flight, all my tools and dotfiles are installed,
|
|
the dev server or container VMs are running, etc. It's the closest to how I
|
|
already worked before coding harnesses and allows me to seamlessly flow between
|
|
agentic code, review, making my own edits, and so forth.
|
|
|
|
However, I've been finding it pretty satisfying to open _Claude Code_ either in
|
|
the MacOS app or iOS app, connect a GitHub repo, and then ask for a quick
|
|
feature landed as a PR.
|
|
|
|
This flow uses [Claude in the Cloud](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/claude-code-on-the-web) to boot up a
|
|
development environment, pull down your codebase, create a branch, build a
|
|
feature, run tests, boot the app, do all the different explorations and checks
|
|
that `claude` typically does, and eventually land a PR back on GitHub.
|
|
|
|
What I find particularly remarkable about this flow is that this _cloud session_
|
|
is effectively synced across any device where I'm using Claude. So while I'm on
|
|
the train home from the gym, I open the Claude iOS app, pick my repo, and
|
|
describe a feature. By the time I get home, I open Claude.app on my computer
|
|
where I can skim through the chat summary, view the diff, and then suggest next
|
|
steps or jump to the PR on GitHub.
|
|
|
|
I'm finding this workflow particularly exciting for side projects because I can
|
|
kick off feature experiments from anywhere when the idea comes to me.
