# Idea
|
|
|
|
## Discovery
|
|
|
|
**Source:** Internal setup documentation — "Remote Claude Workspace Setup" chat
|
|
**Evidence:** Complete working solution implemented and tested
|
|
|
|
## The Problem
|
|
|
|
Claude Desktop with Projects is powerful but tied to one machine. Developers who:
|
|
- Work from multiple devices (laptop, desktop, travel setup)
|
|
- Want to access their Claude Projects remotely
|
|
- Need their MCP tools and project context everywhere
|
|
|
|
...are stuck. Projects don't sync. MCP servers don't transfer.
|
|
|
|
## The Solution
|
|
|
|
VPS-based setup with:
|
|
- Cloudflare Tunnel for secure access
|
|
- Browser-based IDE (code-server) for remote work
|
|
- MCP servers running on VPS, accessible via tunnel
|
|
- Claude Desktop connecting to remote MCP endpoints
|
|
|
|
## Why This Matters
|
|
|
|
1. **Hot topic:** Claude, MCP, remote development all trending
|
|
2. **Unique angle:** Almost nobody writing about this specific setup
|
|
3. **Technical depth:** Shows real problem-solving, not surface-level tips
|
|
4. **Right audience:** Developers using AI tools — exactly our ICP
|
|
5. **Not Banatie-specific:** Good for account warmup, builds authority
|
|
|
|
## Potential Angle
|
|
|
|
"Your Claude Projects shouldn't be trapped on one machine. Here's how I set up remote access to my entire AI development environment."
|
|
|
|
Personal story: why I needed this, what I tried, final solution.
|
|
|
|
## Technical Components
|
|
|
|
- Contabo VPS (Singapore)
|
|
- Docker containers for isolation
|
|
- Cloudflare Tunnel (free tier works)
|
|
- code-server for browser IDE
|
|
- MCP server configuration for remote access
|
|
- Security considerations
|
|
