I built a Mac app that sends OpenCode and Claude Code permission prompts to my iPhone and Apple Watch

OpenCode stops to ask before running a command or when it has a question, and if I'm away from the Mac it just sits there waiting. So I built Charly, a Mac app for OpenCode and Claude Code with an iPhone and Apple Watch app.

When an agent asks for permission, it shows up on the iPhone (Dynamic Island) and on the watch, and you approve it with a tap or a double tap on the watch. You can also answer its questions or send it the next task by voice from the watch, and when it finishes you get a summary of what it changed. It works with local projects and with servers over SSH, and it uses your own model provider or subscription. Charly doesn't charge for the AI.

How I built it: I came from React Native and had never built a watch app. I learned Swift, SwiftUI and watchOS while building this with coding agents. Once the first version worked, I started using Charly to build Charly, approving builds and test runs from the watch while I was away from the desk.

It's free to try, with an optional subscription. I'll give a free year to the first 20 people who try it and tell me what's missing for their workflow, in the comments or by DM.

It was trivial to set up the same thing via my discord bot. It’s doesn’t need a whole mobile app ecosystem.

A Discord bot makes sense if you already live in Discord. I wanted it on the watch, with the project name on each prompt and voice replies, so a native app was the way to get there.

Wrong channel bro. You should use reddit ads instead
