Developer Tooling / Extension

Remote IDE Extension

VS Code / Cursor extension enabling secure, real-time remote control of the IDE from mobile browsers.

Technical Case Study

Engineered a TypeScript VS Code extension that embeds a lightweight Express 5 server and exposes it via a secure Cloudflare Tunnel. Built a 6-tab mobile browser dashboard (Chat, Files, Terminal, Usage, Bugs, Screen) powered by Server-Sent Events (SSE) for real-time broadcasts. Integrates Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP) for deep IDE access, features stateful terminal executions, path traversal protection, native screenshot capture, and Git integration.
