[BUG] /remote-control not available on Claude Pro plan - "not yet enabled for your account"
Preflight Checklist
- [x] I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
- [x] This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
- [x] I am using the latest version of Claude Code
What's Wrong?
The *remote-control' slash command (and 'claude remote-control' CLI command) is not available on
my Claude Pro account, despite official documentation stating it supports Pro plan subscribers.
Running the command returns:
Error: Remote Control is not yet enabled for your account.
Authentication and plan are correct - all other Claude Code features work normally.
What Should Happen?
Running /remote-control' or "claude remote-control' should start a Remote Control session and
display a QR code and session URL to connect from another device, as documented at
https://code.claude.com/docs/en/remote-control
Error Messages/Logs
Error: Remote Control is not yet enabled for your account.
Steps to Reproduce
- Log in to Claude Code with Claude Pro account via claude.ai (not API key)
- Run: claude remote-control
OR type / remote-control inside an active Claude Code session
- Error appears immediately - no QR code, no session URL
