Use your phone as a Claude Hardware Buddy: live status, sensory alerts, and fast permission approvals without extra hardware. Hi,buddy turns your phone into a Claude Hardware Buddy companion for Claude Desktop. Connect over Bluetooth and keep Claude's work visible in the palm of your hand. Hi,buddy acts as a BLE peripheral compatible with the Hardware Buddy flow, showing live session state, permission prompts, and feedback controls on the device you already carry. What Hi,buddy helps with: • See Claude status at a glance Track running and waiting sessions, current status, recent activity, and token signals from Claude Desktop. • Approve faster When Claude needs permission, Hi,buddy surfaces the request so you can approve once or deny from your phone. • Feel important changes Use haptics, sound, visual states, Live Activities, and notifications to notice waiting approvals and session changes. • No extra device required Try the Claude Buddy experience without setting up an ESP32 or M5StickC-style hardware accessory. • Made for makers and developers Hi,buddy is designed for people who keep Claude Desktop running while coding, shipping, testing, or tinkering. Important notes: Hi,buddy works with Claude Desktop's Hardware Buddy Bluetooth flow. For discovery, your device system Bluetooth name may need to start with "Claude". Bluetooth discovery and sensory feedback depend on foreground/background behavior.
