pw code attach

pw code attach

Attach the TUI to pw code sessions on a remote resource

Synopsis

Connect this terminal's TUI to the pw code daemon on a remote resource over SSH. Sessions run on the resource — its workspace, its tools, its transcripts — and this TUI renders and steers them.

With only a resource, the session picker lists the resource's sessions. Append /<session-id> to attach to one directly, or pass -w with a remote workspace path to start a new session there.

Needs SSH access to the resource (as for pw ssh) and a pw version with the code daemon on it; the daemon starts there automatically.

pw code attach [flags] <resource>[/<session-id>]

Examples

  pw code attach gcpv2
  
  # Attach to one session directly
  pw code attach gcpv2/20260819-101500-ab12cd34
  
  # Start a new session in a remote workspace
  pw code attach -w /home/user/project -m org:openai/gpt-5.2 gcpv2
