Played around with Claude Code and remote controls while working on a prototype. Good alternative to doomscrolling.
As you might know, the dopamine hit usually comes from the anticipation of finding a good video while scrolling, not the video itself. Now you can just "scroll" prompts to an agent instead. It’s useful for commuting when you don't have a laptop but still want to be kinda productive.
The setup:
- a web game (Three.js for the prototyping phase)
- claude code
- remote control (CC feature)
- github action (publishes to itch.io draft on tagged master commit)
The loop: I write a prompt, Claude implements it and tests via the Chrome Dev Tools MCP. If it reports success, I ask it to be pushed to master with a tag.
In about a minute, the build is playable in a mobile browser on itch.io. I can play and iterate on it further from there.
Can the anticipation of an agent’s output actually compete with a TikTok algorithm for you, or is this just a honeymoon phase?
