share your live Claude Code session with a 6-char code, AirDrop-style. your friend joins from their terminal - or just opens a link in their browser, nothing to install - sees your exact screen, and both of you can type. works over your wifi with zero setup, or anywhere through a free tunnel.
I built ccshare, a tool for using terminal-based coding agents collaboratively with up to five people in the same live session.
The idea came from trying to pair program with tools like Claude Code and Codex. Screen sharing lets another person watch, but only one person can interact with the agent. Passing commands back and forth or copying prompts between machines quickly becomes awkward.
veryone sees the same terminal and the same agent conversation, and everyone can type. It works with Claude Code, Codex, and other interactive terminal-based tools.
For people on the same network, ccshare can discover the session locally. There is also an option to connect directly to the host.
Some use cases I had in mind:
Pair programming with an AI coding agent
Debugging together during a call
Teaching someone how to use coding agents
Small teams collaborating in one shared agent session
It is still early, and I would especially appreciate feedback on the interaction model, security expectations, and how simultaneous input should behave when several people are connected.
Congrats on shipping ccshare! An AirDrop-style 6-char code to share a live Claude Code session, zero accounts, no telemetry, is exactly the kind of scrappy, useful tool this community loves. Just curious, what got you started on this? a specific pairing session that went badly without it?
Shared terminals get weird when clients have different widths. Whose PTY size wins when one person is on a 13-inch terminal and another joins from a browser? If resize events race, readline and curses output can turn into garbage fast.
separate from the leaked-secrets question below, I'm curious what happens when two people both type a prompt/response into the same session at close to the same moment. does one person's input just get queued behind the other, or is there some kind of lock so only one person can actually be "driving" the agent at a time?
Congrats on the launch! I've spent way too much time in the running-multiple-Claudes rabbit hole, so this is a fun one to see. How do you handle shared context across people, does everyone see the same working state, or is it parallel sessions over a shared repo?
This looks really cool, I see wifi mentioned in the repo, I imagine it can be used just as easily over VPN?
the pairing UX is the fun part but the thing I'd actually want answered before using this on a real project: if someone joins mid-session, do they just see the full scrollback, including anything that got printed or typed before they connected? things like env vars getting echoed, an api key pasted into a prompt earlier, secrets in a stack trace. screen sharing at least you can mute your screen for a second, a shared terminal session feels harder to un-leak once someone's in
one thing that would make this way more useful for me would be a tiny status bar or last-activity timestamp so you can tell at a glance whether the other person is idle, typing, or disconnected. right now if my friend goes afk i have no idea if their session just froze or if they walked away
Multiplayer for Claude Code is such a clever angle — the AirDrop-style 6-char join is slick. Curious how you handle input when two people type into the same session at once — free-for-all, or is there any turn-taking? Congrats on the launch!
The “multiplayer Claude Code” framing makes me wonder how collaboration is handled in practice. Is ccshare more about sharing a live coding session, handing off Claude Code context between teammates, or keeping a shared history of prompts and edits? Those are pretty different workflows for engineering teams, so I’d be interested in where you’re focusing first.
multiplayer claude code is obvious the second you see it, and the airdrop-style 6 char pairing is what makes it actually get used. genuinely curious how you handle two people typing into the same session at once
Congrats on the release, @unworld11 ! The standard text-mirroring approach to terminal collaboration usually suffers from massive latency or character drops, so hearing that the screen mirroring feels instantaneous is a great sign.
Regarding the simultaneous input behavior you asked about: when up to five developers are connected to the same active Claude Code session, how does ccshare handle terminal state conflicts?
shared a quick session with a coworker and the 6 char code thing actually works like airdrop, super smooth. the live screen mirroring felt instant which was way better than i expected for a small tool
