Show HN: Remoat – Control Antigravity from your phone via Telegram

Sometimes you’re not at your computer. But your computer should still be with you. -- Just thought how Steve Jobs would introduce this :)

I built a tool that lets you send prompts, screenshots, or voice notes from Telegram and have your computer execute them locally through Antigravity. No cloud relay, no exposed ports, but Antigravity runs natively on your machine.

I've been using it daily for the past week as my "away from keyboard" workflow. It's completely written with Claude Code.

Try it here and I would love to know what you think. npm install -g remoat && remoat setup

Or: brew tap optimistengineer/remoat && brew install remoat

I'm curious, since there are no exposed ports, I assume the local Remoat client is long-polling the Telegram Bot API? How are you handling connection stability or retry logic when the machine temporarily drops off the network?

The Telegram bot pattern for hardware control is underrated. One tip if you go this route: structure your bot commands to emit structured JSON logs per session. This makes it trivial to replay command history, audit what ran and when, and hand off context to another operator without losing state. Hardware control benefits enormously from session continuity thinking, same principles apply whether you are controlling antigravity or running long agent workflows.

Nice work! Built something in the same space — Levitation (https://levitation.studio). Different approach: web dashboard instead of Telegram, so you get a full UI for managing multiple agents replicating the Agents Manager interface of Antigravity. Both open source.

Funny thing you built yours with Claude Code :). Mine is completely written (well 99%) with Antigravity.
