Porte is an open-source phone remote control built specifically for Grok Build. Pair your phone with your machine, then read live transcripts, send prompts and files, run slash commands, stop turns, and answer permission requests.
I switched to Grok Build as my coding agent and missed one feature: controlling local sessions from my phone.
Le voilà, Porte — French for “door” — an open-source remote control for Grok Build.
How it works: 1. Install the Porte plugin in Grok. 2. Run /remote-control and pair your phone. 3. Start or continue local conversations from your phone.
Porte currently lets you: - Read transcripts live, including tool calls, diffs, file output, and Grok responses. - Send prompts, attach files, run slash commands, and stop a turn. - Allow or deny permission requests without granting broad approval. - Open existing conversations or start one in a known local repository.
- View git diff of changes to easily review Grok's work.
Grok and your repository files stay on your machine. Porte preserves Grok’s directory, configuration, sandbox, and permission rules. Porte stores your account, pairing data, and conversation transcripts so your phone can access them.
Last but not least - it's 100% free and open-source.

Who hunted Porte?
Porte was hunted by Alexander Zuev. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it. Hunters typically write the first comment explaining why a product is worth attention, and their followers are notified the moment they post. Around 79% of featured launches on Product Hunt are self-hunted by their makers, but a well-known hunter still acts as a signal of quality to the rest of the community.
