FAQPage Schema
How do I configure tmux for mobile control using remobi?

To configure tmux for mobile control, remobi-setup provides an interactive onboarding workflow that inspects your environment, asks targeted questions, and generates a remobi.config.ts file with only non-default overrides.

Can I deploy remobi over a private network with Tailscale?

Yes, remobi supports deployment over Tailscale, private networks, or local connections. The guided setup provides specific deployment guidance to connect your mobile tmux session based on your chosen network topology.

Do I need to manually check node and tmux versions before setting up remobi?

No, remobi-setup automatically performs prerequisite checks for node, tmux, and existing remobi installations. It inspects your environment during onboarding so you do not need to manually verify dependencies before starting.

What is the best way to optimize tmux for mobile access?

The best way to optimize tmux for mobile access is using remobi's persona-driven questioning to tailor configuration. It generates a remobi.config.ts containing only necessary non-default overrides suited to your specific mobile workflow.

Can I reconfigure an existing remobi setup without losing my current config?

Yes, remobi-setup applies to both new and existing users. It introspects your current tmux environment and regenerates the remobi.config.ts with only non-default overrides, ensuring your reconfiguration preserves existing valid settings.

Why does my remobi onboarding fail to generate a config?

Remobi onboarding may fail if prerequisite checks for node, tmux, or remobi are not met, or if tmux introspection cannot read your environment, preventing the generation of the remobi.config.ts file.
