farmer is an npm package that intercepts tool-call permission requests from AI coding agents and routes them to a mobile-friendly dashboard. Instead of watching a terminal scroll as Claude Code or another agent quietly runs shell commands, you get a swipe-card view on your phone where each pending tool call shows the command, its arguments, and the agent's reasoning — and you approve or deny with a swipe. The architecture is deliberately simple: farmer acts as a hook in the agent's tool-call loop, holds execution until you respond, then forwards your decision back. It ships with a Claude Code adapter out of the box and a documented adapter interface for other agents. The mobile UI is a PWA, so there's nothing to install — just navigate to the local server address in Safari or Chrome. For developers running long agentic sessions — overnight refactors, automated test generation, or repo-wide migrations — farmer fills a real gap. Current tools either block the terminal or run with blind trust. farmer offers a middle path: human-in-the-loop control without requiring you to be physically at your machine.
Reviewer scorecard
“React-based, versioning, and i18n built in. The most flexible open-source documentation framework.”
“This solves the exact anxiety of kicking off a Claude Code session and then walking away. The swipe-card mobile UI is well thought out — you can do a quick code review of the pending command right from the notification. The adapter interface is clean enough that I could wire it to my own agents in an afternoon.”
“Free, open source, and battle-tested by thousands of projects. The default choice for OSS documentation.”
“The security model is concerning: you're routing tool-call details through a local WebSocket server that's exposed to your network. Anyone on the same WiFi can potentially see (or intercept) pending commands. There's no auth on the dashboard in v0.1. Fix that before using this on anything sensitive.”
“Functional but not beautiful by default. Mintlify produces better-looking docs with less effort.”
“I run AI agents to manage my content pipeline and frequently can't be at my desk. The idea of approving file writes and API calls from my phone while I'm at a coffee shop is exactly what I've wanted. The activity feed is a nice touch for auditing what ran while I was away.”
“Human-in-the-loop approval is going to become a compliance requirement for agentic AI in enterprise settings. farmer is ahead of the curve — the patterns it's establishing for mobile-first agent oversight will likely influence how official agent SDKs handle permission gating.”
