We built a web workspace for our terminals, RDP sessions and Claude Code, and made it work from a phone

说明与用途

MuxTerm 将终端、RDP、VNC 和 Claude Code 集成到一个统一的网页工作区，支持会话持久化、移动端使用，并通过推送通知 Claude 提示。

问题

Managing multiple Linux, Windows, and Claude Code sessions required a laptop with many tabs and a phone that could not interact, leading to fragmented workflows and uncertainty about which session needed attention.

结果

MuxTerm unified disparate remote access tools into a responsive, mobile‑friendly workspace, enabling persistent sessions, real‑time Claude Code interaction, and streamlined credential management. The solution reduced device fragmentation and improved workflow efficiency for the IT services team.

工作流

• 1. Install MuxTerm using the one‑line installer or signed packages.
• 2. Configure credentials via Vaultwarden; MuxTerm retrieves them on demand.
• 3. Open the web workspace; each panel connects to a tmux window, RDP, VNC, or SFTP session.
• 4. For Claude Code, MuxTerm parses JSONL transcripts and displays a conversation view with actionable buttons.
• 5. Use the activity tray and Web Push to track pending Claude prompts across devices.
• 6. Update MuxTerm through the built‑in updater with rollback support.

证据

We run a small IT services company in Santiago, Chile. A normal day for us is a dozen Linux servers, a handful of Windows machines we reach over RDP, and, since last year, three or four Claude Code sessions doing real work in parallel.

MuxTerm is what we built to fix that. It has been our daily driver for months and we released it as open source (MIT) with a proper installer and signed updates this week.

Terminals live in tmux on the server, not in the browser. Each panel is a tmux window served through ttyd. Close the browser, restart the server, update MuxTerm: the session is still there.

RDP and VNC through guacd, without Guacamole. guacd is the small C daemon that does the protocol work.

Claude Code writes a JSONL transcript of every session. MuxTerm reads it and turns a terminal panel into a conversation view: messages, tool calls, narration, the permission question with the options as buttons.

We have genuinely left Claude working and gone for a walk.
