I recently shipped Claudette — a mobile app that adds 35+ instrumentation tools on top of SSH for Claude Code workflows. It started because the official Claude mobile app frustrated me: everything hidden behind chat bubbles, no way to see context usage or agent activity.
What Claudette adds that the official app can't
Context Monitor — a real-time gauge showing how much of Claude's 200k token window you've used, with a history chart, input/output token breakdown, and cumulative session cost in USD.
Agent Tree Visualizer — when Claude spawns subagents, Claudette shows them as a live hierarchical tree. Each node displays status (active/completed), tool use count, token count, and duration.
Task Progress Tracker — Claude's task list rendered as color-coded cards (pending, in-progress with pulse animation, completed) with an overall progress bar.
Voice I/O — tap the floating mic to dictate prompts. When Claude finishes, an AI-powered summary is read aloud via text-to-speech. Optional conversation mode loops: Claude speaks, mic auto-opens.
Structured Mode — toggle mid-session between raw terminal output and a conversation view where tool use, text, and results are shown as distinct message blocks.
File Browser — navigate remote directories over SFTP, preview files, edit text with unsaved-changes indicator.
Plus: extended keyboard row, multi-tab sessions, hooks editor, CLAUDE.md viewer, prompt snippets, Bonjour discovery, Wake-on-LAN.
How it works
Claudette connects to your Mac via SSH. Three real-time parsers process the terminal output:
AgentActivityParser — detects agent spawns from box-drawing characters and status lines
TaskActivityParser — recognizes unicode markers for task status
ContextUsageParser — extracts token counts and costs from multiple output formats
The parsers feed the UI overlays: context gauge, agent tree, task tracker.
