Agent 'Patch' with shared tmux session on WSL
Agent 'Patch' as Supervisor: Shared Tmux Sessions from iPhone via WSL
A developer set up their OpenClaw agent "Patch" in a WSL environment on Windows, sharing a tmux session accessible from a mobile Blink app. The result: a supervisor agent managing multiple Claude Code instances from an iPhone.
WSL + Tmux + Blink App: Managing Multiple Claude Code Instances from Mobile
The architecture is elegant in its layering:
- OpenClaw agent "Patch" runs in WSL on a 22-core development workstation
- Patch spawns shared tmux instances that can be attached to from any device
- Blink app + Tailscale on iPhone connects via SSH to the workstation
- Patch provides a tmux attach command to join the shared session
- Multiple Claude Code instances run in parallel, supervised by Patch
The breakthrough: instead of the developer managing 5-10 different tmux sessions and context-switching between them, Patch acts as a supervisor. One Telegram chat manages everything.
Mobile-Accessible AI Supervisor Managing a Fleet of Coding Agents
Mobile-accessible shared terminal session with an AI supervisor agent. The developer can manage an entire fleet of coding agents from their phone while away from the desk. "This frees up my brain to only have to just manage Patch the supervisor, instead of micro-managing all the different agents."
