Take over

Step into any page an agent is working, do a step yourself, and hand it back, on the wall, in Chrome, or on your whole Mac from your phone.

Your whole Mac, from your phone

Your Mac on the phone's Work tabWatch the Mac's whole screen live, every app
Take overHand backYour phone drives the pointer and keyboard; Jevie waits, then looks again
once taken over, your finger is a trackpad: move it and the pointer moves at once (drawn on the phone; the Mac's follows a moment later), further for a quick stroke; tap to click where the pointer is, tap twice to double-click; hold still a moment (a tick), or tap then touch again and move, to drag; two fingers scroll or pinch to zoom, and the zoomed picture follows the pointer; tap with two fingers to right-click
another Mac chosen under the gear's ComputersThe same place shows that Mac's screen, named after it, and Take over drives it (not a PC yet)

How it works

The agent pauses before its next step and waits for you: sign in, pick the size, solve the puzzle, then give it back. A page only you can get past, such as a human check, a QR sign-in or a code sent to your phone, hands itself to you with a notification saying what is needed.

The time you hold a page is yours: the errand's clock stops while you have it.

Limits

A step already under way when you take over finishes first; after ten minutes held, the agent gives the page up.
The whole Mac from the phone shows the main display as video, up to 30 frames a second and only what changed, reached over your Tailscale or Jevie's tunnel. A phone whose browser cannot decode it (no WebCodecs) gets pictures a few times a second instead. On a slow connection it skips ahead rather than falling behind, and the picture turns softer (down to a quarter of its usual detail) until the connection has kept up for ten seconds, a step at a time. Whatever stops moving for a quarter of a second is sent once more at full sharpness, so text you scrolled to is crisp to read; zoomed in, every part of the screen that has stood still for a third of a second is sent exact, pixel for pixel, even while something elsewhere keeps moving (an agent's spinner).
In Chrome, Stop on a page a coding agent drives (Claude or Codex over MCP) refuses that agent's next action on the page and tells it you stopped it; the agent's own session goes on.

Where it's kept

In Jevie, help take over answers from this page as you type.
