Remote Control: Frequent disconnections requiring page refresh

Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Feb 25, 2026 by SeraphKc Closed Mar 1, 2026

Description

When using the Remote Control feature (/rc or claude remote-control), the remote session on mobile browser disconnects frequently. The session requires manual page refresh to reconnect, sometimes multiple times during a single session.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Start a Claude Code session on desktop
  2. Run /rc to start remote control
  3. Open the provided URL on a mobile device browser
  4. Use the session for a few minutes
  5. The connection drops — the page becomes unresponsive

Expected Behavior

The remote session should maintain a stable persistent connection without requiring frequent page refreshes.

Actual Behavior

The remote session disconnects multiple times, requiring the user to manually refresh the browser page to reconnect.

Environment

  • OS: Windows 11 Pro
  • Plan: Pro/Max
  • Browser: Mobile browser (Chrome)
  • Network: Stable internet connection on both devices

Notes

  • Computer does not go to sleep during the session
  • Internet connection is stable on both ends
  • No VPN or firewall interference
  • Refreshing the page does reconnect successfully, but it disconnects again shortly after
