Problem Statement

Similar:

When using Claude Code remote, I want the ability to view the state / agents progress visually. Since Claude Code remote operates in a networked sandbox, I can't access the development server.

Mac (Claude 1.1.9669 (aea25d) 2026-03-30T20:17:34.000Z):

Iphone (Latest app store):

Proposed Solution

I would like to be able to preview images in Claude Code Desktop and Claude Code for mobile. The desktop preview is currently low resolution, and mobile cannot preview images at all.

Alternative Solutions

I have also considered having Claude Code attach these images to the GitHub PR/issue, but it does not have MCP permission to do this.

The only workaround I can think of is setting up live, sandboxed application previews for each PR, but I work in a open source project and this can be expensive to run/maintain.

Priority

High - Significant impact on productivity

Use Case Example

Example scenario:
