## Description

reminal lets you close your laptop and walk away while your machine keeps serving its actual applications live in any browser from anywhere. It streams windows and full desktops at up to 60 fps with mouse and keyboard control, provides a full terminal with QR code access, enables file transfer between machines with one-time codes, exposes local ports as public HTTPS URLs, and integrates with AI agent CLIs via an MCP server so agents can read and type into each other's sessions across machines. A Cloudflare Workers relay handles signaling and can be self-hosted; all traffic uses AES-256-GCM encryption. No open ports, no accounts, session secrets encrypted on disk. Runs on macOS (with closed-lid mode), Linux (X11), and Windows (ConPTY).
