How it works
Three steps and you're connected.
Run the relay server
A lightweight menu bar app on macOS. Stays in the background, manages your terminal sessions over an encrypted WebSocket connection.
Open Arcway on your phone
Sign in, and Arcway discovers your relay instantly. Pick a session and you're in.
Full terminal, in your pocket
Run Claude Code, monitor builds, manage servers — a real PTY session from wherever you are.

Why Arcway?
