Would be cool to see with the growing capabilities of iphones whether you can make it work to control your mac via the phone. Maybe ios is quite limiting but often times I need to use my mac for something but can only carry my phone because I’m traveling. All other solutions are pretty bad at the moment.

It seems good but I have a few questions that i could find answers, for example will it keep running if one of the the mac sleeps or have its internet disconnected and will it automatically resume from where the same state it got disconnected @hnshah?

This is interesting. I've just bought a fully specced MacBook Pro to run a local agent, and given what it cost I'm nervous about carrying it around. If Beam is as slick as it looks, it could stay safely at home doing the work while I use it from another Mac. What's the latency like over Tailscale, and how much bandwidth does it need?

Really cool! would it work with Davinci on a headless mac studio? A friend of mine recently started using claude with davinci on a dedicated mac studio. For cutting movies etc. As Davinci's MCP integration became really good recently. Do you think he could benefit from this?
