scomp-agent: My tmux Sessions on the Phone, Without SSH and Without Open Ports

I start long jobs in tmux. Then I go away from the laptop. Then I want to know if the job is finished. For many years, my procedure was this: find a laptop, connect a VPN, open SSH, attach to tmux, and read one line. That is five steps to read one line.

The phone is always in my pocket. The terminal session is always on a server. I wrote scomp to connect these two things. This post is about scomp-agent, the small Go binary that runs next to your sessions.

Terminal on No.Try not. Do… or do not. There is no try.
