Open, close, or check the Remote Control spawn gate — the hermit-managed `claude remote-control` server that lets a phone spawn new sessions into this project.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# RC Gate

The spawn gate is a `claude remote-control` server the hermit runs as its own
tmux child. While it is open, the operator can spawn **new** sessions into this
project from claude.ai/code or the mobile app; each spawn lands in its own git
worktree, so this folder stays single-session and the hermit keeps its own state.

This is a different leg from `config.remote`, which makes *the hermit itself*
reachable. Both can be on; neither implies the other.

## Verbs

All four are `.hermit/bin/hermitd-run rc-server <verb>`:

| Verb | What it does | `status` |
|---|---|---|
| `start` | opens the gate (tmux session `hermit-rc-gate`), waits for the server | `ready` with `url`, or `refused` |
| `status` | one pane read | `down`, `starting` (not serving yet), `ready`, or `connected` (`connected`/`capacity`); `live_spawns` when spawn worktrees exist |
| `stop` | closes the gate, then sweeps | `closed` / `down`, with any sweep under `gc` |
| `gc` | sweeps worktrees left by archived spawns | `skip` if liveness is unknown; else lists `removed`, `kept` (uncommitted work), `failed` |

The `url` (`claude.ai/code?environment=…`) is what the operator
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add gtapps/claude-code-hermit/rc-gate@sha256:363bd2354b5dd0ec

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261017.dcc144e, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
