I've always had the urge to have my two macbooks communicate. Having one idle while working on the other felt like underutilization of resources. So I built Loopsy. Initially the goal was to do file transfer via local network, and then came running commands. I then tried running coding agents from one machine to the other, and it worked.
Later I figured there should be a better way to continue my claude sessions remotely on my phone from the gym. So I did a cloudflare worker that connects to my local machine. I just need to ensure the laptop is plugged in.
I know I might be reinventing the wheel, but I love that it just works. Still working on E2E encryption. iOS app still in review.
Lemme know your thoughts.

Dependence on Cloudflare… have you considered making it a service that I could install on my own server?

Not calling _you_ a learner, just calling out to this -- when teaching people to program I've almost invariably told them to focus on getting something practical working.
I hope that a lot more people get to experience this pattern as a result of LLMs. With enough experimentation I'm excited for what creativity we draw out of people.
Curious how you think about the overlap with something like Tailscale, and where you see Loopsy being strictly better or worse.
