For freelancers who work with Claude Code

Left your laptop at home? Your work didn't stop.

Claude Code keeps working on your computer. You run it from your phone.

Claude Code stops to ask you something? Tap Allow or Deny. A long task finishes? You get the report. All in Telegram or the TextMyWorker app.

Ask the bot (opens Telegram)

Your files stay on your computer. Messages pass through our relay and aren’t stored.

  • Runs on your Mac or Windows PC.
  • Answers only you.
  • In Telegram or our app.

Illustration of the real flow. What works today

Claude Code is brilliant. It's also stuck at your desk.

Claude Code can fix the bug, run the tests and ship the deploy. Then it stops to ask you something, and you're not at your desk.

  • You start a long task, step out, and come back to find it waiting on an "Allow" click since minute one.
  • You have five sessions open and no idea which one finished.
  • A client pings about a bug while you're out, and the fix has to wait until you're back at the laptop.

You didn't hire an assistant to babysit it.

How it works

Three steps. Then you just text.

  1. Connect your computer

    We're letting in a small group of design partners. Ask the bot on Telegram; once you're in, it sends you one command for your Mac or Windows PC. A setup window installs Claude Code if it's missing, signs you in, lets you pick the folders and connects your computer to your chat. It answers only you.

  2. Text a task

    Type it or send a voice note. It runs in Claude Code on your computer, in the folder you chose, with your real files and tools.

  3. Approve and get the report

    When a Claude Code session needs permission while you're away, you get Allow and Deny buttons. When a long task finishes, you get what you asked, what happened and how long it took.

Features

When you've been away from your computer for a few minutes, Claude Code's permission requests come to you as Allow / Deny. Only a tap counts. Back at your desk? The request moves to the normal dialog.

Send a message or a voice note from anywhere. Voice is transcribed and quoted back, so you know it heard you right.

Long tasks in any Claude Code session end with a summary on your phone: your original ask, the result, and how long it took.

One activity log across every Claude Code session on your computer. Ask what's running, what's waiting on you, or what you did today.

Your scripts and agents can send you a question with buttons. Your tap goes straight back to them.

Kicking off a long job

Run my test suite on client-b and tell me what broke.

You go pick up the kids. Twenty minutes later:

Done in 19 min. 3 failures, all in the billing module. Want me to fix them?

Away from your desk

A Claude Code session in landing wants to run: git push

AllowDeny

You're at a client meeting. You tap Allow.

The session you left running on your computer keeps going instead of waiting for you all afternoon.

And more

  • Email and calendar

    When you choose to hand it your connectors (off by default). It drafts first and asks before anything goes out.

  • Clients and files

    Forward a PDF or snap a receipt. It's saved in your workspace and your worker reads it.

  • Morning brief

    At 08:00: what moved yesterday, what's waiting on you, and one suggested first step.

  • “What did I do this week?”

    A per-project recap from the activity log, ready for your invoices.

Your worker, your machine

Built for people who don't hand their business to a black box.

  • The work happens on your computer, on your Claude plan.

    Claude Code runs on your computer and does the work there. Your files stay on your disk. The parts Claude reads for a task go to Anthropic, the same as any Claude Code use.

  • A relay that passes messages, not keeps them.

    Messages travel through our relay on their way to your computer. It sends each one only to the computer paired with your account, holds it in memory until your computer picks it up, and never writes message content to disk. It keeps counts and timings only.

  • Your worker only gets the keys you hand it.

    One folder you pick, none of your accounts or tools. Deleting, pushing, deploying and sending anything out wait for your tap on Allow. Typing “yes” doesn't count, no answer means no, and “stop” stops it. You widen access only from your computer, never from the chat.

  • It answers only you.

    Your worker talks only to the account you paired, in Telegram, Slack or the TextMyWorker app. App notifications don't show your message text, just the tool or folder waiting for you.

What is TextMyWorker?

TextMyWorker is a chat front end for Claude Code. Claude Code runs on your own computer (Mac or Windows) on your own Claude plan, and you talk to it from Telegram, Slack or the TextMyWorker app: send a task by text or voice, tap Allow or Deny when it asks permission, and get a summary when it's done.

Do I need Claude Code?

Yes. TextMyWorker runs on top of your own Claude Code install and your own Claude plan. Not using it yet? Ask the bot anyway and we'll add you to the waitlist.

What works today, and what's planned?

Working today: tasks from Telegram, Slack or the TextMyWorker app (typed or by voice; Slack is text only for now), Allow / Deny from your phone, a summary when a long task finishes, photos in Telegram and the app, documents in Telegram, and a morning brief. It runs on Mac and Windows. Next: native iPhone and Android apps. Access is by invitation for now: ask the bot, and once you're in, it sends you the one-line setup command.

Doesn't Anthropic already let me use Claude Code from my phone?

It does, and it's good. Remote Control lets you drive a Claude Code session on your computer from the Claude app or claude.ai/code. Remote Control = you work remotely. TextMyWorker = someone works for you while you live. It lives in Telegram, Slack and the TextMyWorker app and watches all your Claude Code sessions: it asks for approvals when you're away, reports when work finishes, and takes new tasks by text or voice. Use both if you like. Every option, compared.

Can it touch the rest of my computer?

You choose at setup: Full access (works like your own Claude Code: your projects and your tools), one project folder, or a small sample project to try. With one project, it can't read or write anything outside it. Either way, deleting, git push, deploys and sending anything out wait for your tap on Allow, and “stop” stops it instantly. You can change it later, only from your computer. No MCP. No plugin. Just a chat: we don't plug into your accounts. What your worker can use.

Where do I talk to my worker?

In Telegram, in Slack, or in the TextMyWorker app on your phone. It's the same conversation: start in Telegram, continue in Slack or the app, it's the same worker on the same computer. In Slack you message the TextMyWorker bot in a private DM, for now in the TextMyWorker Slack workspace, which you join by invitation. You don't need tokens or a developer account of your own. Our relay passes each message from your paired account to your computer, and nowhere else. More on how it works.

What do you see of my messages?

Only numbers, never the content. Your messages pass through our relay on the way to your computer and aren't stored. (In Telegram and Slack, messages also go through Telegram's or Slack's servers, like any message there.) We keep when a message came in, how many there were and how long the answer took, so we can see the product works. Your files and projects stay on your computer. Voice notes are transcribed by ElevenLabs.

Does it work on Windows or Linux?

It works on Mac and Windows, both natively. On a Mac you run one command in Terminal; on Windows, one command in PowerShell. Linux isn't supported today.

What happens when my computer is asleep or off?

Your worker lives on your computer, so the computer needs to be on. While it's plugged in, TextMyWorker keeps it awake and reconnects automatically after sleep. A closed laptop without an external display will still sleep.

Does it work on WhatsApp?

Yes. Message the TextMyWorker bot on WhatsApp at +972 55-315-3190. It runs on Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform, not on a personal number linked as a device. Already connected on Telegram or Slack? Add WhatsApp to the same worker with npx textmyworker@latest link whatsapp, no reinstall needed. Same worker, same approvals, same reports.

What does it cost?

No salary during the pilot: design partners work free. You keep paying for your own Claude plan. See Salary.

What languages does it speak?

Text works in whatever language you and Claude speak. Replies and voice notes are set up in English or Hebrew today.

Ask the bot.

  • What you get: a guided setup and a direct line to the builder.
  • What you give: a few messages and honest feedback.
  • No salary during the pilot: design partners work free. You keep paying for your own Claude plan. See Salary.
