RemoteAgent.CHAT is a lightweight relay that connects any AI coding agent running on your machine to a Telegram bot you control. Once paired, you can send natural-language prompts from anywhere — your phone, another computer, anywhere Telegram runs — and get streaming output back in real time. There is no cloud IDE, no remote execution environment, and no server you need to manage. Your agent runs on your own machine, with your own API keys, in your own project directory. RemoteAgent.CHAT is purely a relay: it never sees your source code, your prompts in full context, or your API credentials. The setup takes under five minutes. Download the binary, get a pairing code from remoteagent.chat/dashboard, run remoteagent init in your project directory, and paste the code when prompted. You’re done.

Any AI runner

Works with Claude Code (SDK or CLI), Gemini CLI, Aider, OpenCode, OpenClaw, or any custom binary that reads stdin and writes stdout. Switch runners at any time with a single flag.

Telegram interface

No custom app to install. Use the Telegram client you already have. Commands stream back as messages in real time, split automatically when they exceed Telegram’s 4096-character limit.

Zero trust relay

Your API key never leaves your machine. RemoteAgent.CHAT routes messages between Telegram and your local agent — it does not store prompts, code diffs, or credentials at any point.

5-minute setup

One command to install, one init wizard, one pairing code. No Docker, no configuration files to write by hand, no infrastructure to provision.

How it works

  1. You download the remoteagent binary on the machine where your AI agent will run.
  2. You log in to remoteagent.chat/dashboard, click Pair new agent, and get a short pairing code.
  3. You run remoteagent init in your project directory, choose your AI runner, and paste the pairing code when prompted. The agent is now linked to your Telegram bot.
  4. From that point on, any message you send to the bot is forwarded to your agent. Output streams back to Telegram as it is produced.
The relay is event-driven — no polling, no persistent connections from the server side. See Architecture for a detailed breakdown.

Compatibility

The RemoteAgent.CHAT binary is self-contained — no Node.js or runtime required. It runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows (WSL recommended on Windows). The runner you choose may have its own prerequisites — see the Runners section for details.
