Remote work has fundamentally changed how often people need access to devices they aren’t sitting in front of. The tools built for this, however, haven’t kept up. Software-based remote access drops the moment a device sleeps or the screen locks, traditional KVMs demand a tangle of HDMI, USB, power, and Ethernet cables, and phones and tablets have been left out of the picture entirely.

GL.iNet, the Hong Kong-based networking company behind a range of popular OpenWrt routers, has built the Comet Q to tackle all three of those problems at once. Officially designated the GL-RMQ1, it’s described as the world’s first browser-based, pocket-sized remote-control device built specifically for USB-C devices, covering laptops, phones, tablets, and Mac minis. You plug it in, open a browser, and you’re in.

What sets the Comet Q apart is that it operates at the hardware level, not through software installed on the target device. That distinction matters more than it sounds. Traditional remote desktop software relies on the operating system and an active network connection, failing the moment a device sleeps, locks, or loses Wi-Fi. The Comet Q keeps working through all of that, as long as the device stays powered on and hasn’t entered a hibernation state that cuts off its HDMI/USB output.

That control comes through a single USB-C cable that simultaneously carries video, data, and power, doing away with the HDMI dongle and USB hub that traditional KVMs require. Video output reaches up to 2K at 60 fps with two-way audio, and a built-in USB-C passthrough port means the device being controlled stays charged throughout the session. It’s a genuinely pocket-sized setup that actually earns that description.

Where the Comet Q breaks new ground is with mobile devices. No KVM was ever built for them, and if something went wrong remotely, there was no clean solution short of being physically present. It connects directly through the USB-C port, working with iPhones from the iPhone 15 onward (excluding the iPhone 16e and later budget models), iPads, and a wide range of Android phones and tablets, provided the port supports DisplayPort Alt Mode.

All of that also means the OS combination no longer matters. Users can control an iPhone from a Windows PC, a MacBook from an Android tablet, or an iPad from a Linux machine. Developers can manage test devices without being at their desks, IT teams can monitor a fleet of phones from one interface, and content creators can run a dedicated recording device from anywhere in the same room.

There’s a surprisingly personal side to this. If you’ve ever tried walking a parent through a tech problem over the phone, knowing you could take over their screen remotely would have saved everyone a lot of stress. The Comet Q makes that possible, and since Wi-Fi credentials can be preset before shipping the device, the person receiving it doesn’t need to set it up.

Accessing the Comet Q doesn’t require any downloads. From a laptop or desktop, any browser pointed to glkvm.com is enough to take full control, with no account creation needed. When controlling from a phone or tablet, the GLKVM app, available on Windows, macOS, App Store, and Google Play, handles touch gestures more precisely. A 1.8-inch circular touchscreen on the device also makes initial setup possible without opening a laptop.

Security runs through every layer of the design. Each session ends the moment the Comet Q is physically disconnected, leaving no residual access or background processes behind. Built-in support for Tailscale, ZeroTier, and WireGuard VPN keeps remote connections encrypted and firewall-friendly, while two-factor authentication adds yet another layer on top. Remote access that works through hardware rather than software has been a long time coming for phones and tablets.

Dropbox vient de sortir un plugin pour Claude Code , et leur idée c'est de pouvoir brancher vos fichiers Dropbox directement dans vos sessions de dev Claude Code / Cowork.

Alors je me suis demandé à quoi ça pouvait bien servir et voici ce que j'ai compris. Une fois que le plugin est en place, ça permet à Claude Code d'aller piocher dans votre Dropbox vos docs techniques, vos cahiers des charges, votre code...etc pour s'en faire du contexte. Tout devient de la matière fraiche pour corriger ou générer du code et quand c'est fini, ce qui est produit peut être à son tour stocké sur Dropbox.

Le plugin sait récupérer les fichiers en fonction de leur nom, de mots clés, de leur emplacement et bien sûr en fonction de leurs méta données. Même vos liens partagés il sait comment les gérer. Bref, il fait tout simplement le passe-plats entre tout le bordel que vous stockez sur Dropbox et Claude Code.

Cela dit, gardez la tête froide parce que tout ce que l'IA lit part sur les serveurs d'Anthropic pour être traité. Donc évitez quand même de le lâcher sur le dossier qui contient vos contrats, vos mots de passe ou vos données clients. Lui autoriser juste un dossier dédié avec ce que vous acceptez de partager, ce sera plus sain.

Pour l'installer, ça se passe dans Claude Code sur le web. Vous filez dans le menu Personnaliser, Connecteurs puis vous cherchez Dropbox en parcourant les plugins et vous cliquez sur ajouter. Une auth OAuth plus tard (vos identifiants Dropbox habituels), c'est branché. Un petit /reload-plugins et le plugin s'active alors dans la session en cours.

En plus de ce plugin, Dropbox propose également un serveur MCP classique en ligne de commande qui est un peu plus souple et surtout peut se brancher dans Cursor, Claude Desktop ou Devin.

Un bémol quand même, c'est pas open bar... sniiif. Eh oui, Dropbox plafonne tout ça à 5 Mo par fichier lu ou créé via l'intégration, et le contenu pondu par Claude ne se sauvegarde qu'en texte (.txt, .md, .html, .py), et pas en image ni en PDF. Quant aux limites de débit de l'API, on ne les connaît pas.

Bref, pour les gros fichiers ou les binaires, faudra donc passer par autre chose.

Si vous vivez dans Claude Code et que votre vie est rangée dans Dropbox, ça vaut peut-être le coup de jeter un œil ici.

Un dev prénommé Yllan vient de sortir OS9Map , une application qui affiche OpenStreetMap directement sur Mac OS 9. Oui, je parle bien du système d'exploitation de 1999 qui ronronnait sur nos vieux PowerPC.

Pour l'installer, c'est un bon vieux fichier .sit à décompresser (StuffIt Expander sur la machine d'époque, The Unarchiver si vous passez par un Mac moderne), et il vous faudra un PowerPC sous OS 9 avec 16 Mo de RAM (32 recommandés) et une connexion qui passe par Open Transport. Une fois lancé, vous avez alors une recherche d'adresses qui tape dans Nominatim, le moteur de géocodage d'OpenStreetMap, et vous pouvez mettre vos endroits favoris en signets pour y revenir d'un clic depuis le menu. Bref, un vrai petit client carto !

Et c'est là que je trouve ça beau puisque 16 Mo de RAM pour afficher une carte mondiale interactive, c'est très peu. Pour vous situer, un seul onglet Chrome aujourd'hui c'est plusieurs centaines de Mo, donc faut saluer l'exploit d'Yllan.

Maintenant si l'idée d'une carte minimaliste vous parle, dans le genre bien dépouillé j'avais aussi joué avec MapSCII qui balance le monde entier en ASCII dans un terminal. OS9Map joue dans une autre cour, mais on retrouve un peu la même philosophie.

Le truc qui rend tout ça possible, c'est évidemment OpenStreetMap qui propose toutes ses données en accès libre ! Alors rien que pour ça, merci à OpenStreetMap et ses contributeurs.

Et puis si vous n'avez plus de PowerPC qui traîne au grenier, vous pouvez quand même goûter à OS 9 dans votre navigateur via Infinite Mac .

OS9Map est en version 1.0.0 et se télécharge gratuitement sur le site de yllan .
