I built two CLI tools to fix friction points with Claude Code:claude-remote-approver – Sends permission prompts (Bash, Write, Edit) as push notifications to your phone via ntfy.sh. Tap Approve/Deny from anywhere. Falls back to terminal on timeout. Supports "Always Approve" for trusted tools.claude-plan-reviewer – Hooks into Claude Code's plan mode and sends plans to a rival AI (OpenAI Codex CLI or Gemini CLI) for review. Feedback gets injected back, Claude revises, repeats for N rounds. Different models catch different blind spots.Together: give Claude a task, walk away, rival AI reviews the plan automatically, phone buzzes when permissions are needed, come back to a completed task.Both MIT licensed, zero dependencies, Node.js 18+, no telemetry.- https://github.com/yuuichieguchi/claude-remote-approver- https://github.com/yuuichieguchi/claude-plan-reviewer

Could you build this?
Yes These are small CLI wrapper utilities that hook into stdin/stdout or process streams and make HTTP calls to a public push service (ntfy.sh) to relay yes/no approvals.
