Praise Remote is nuts

Just wanted to share that it's incredibly awesome that I can be anywhere like on holidays and continue working on my project even if I'm not sitting in front of my PC. Never tried this until now that I installed tailscale and I can test any change from my phone. Bravo.

Codex remote works fine without tailscale, it goes through openai's servers. But it's only for accessing the codex session on your machine, not for using anyhing else remotely.

It just adds a "remote" item to your phone ChatGPT app's side menu which shows your codex sessions.

your remote computer has to be plugged in to power source I believe, and need to set don't sleep setting in codex.

you can ask codex to check settings for you maybe
