Even G2 Terminal Mode lets you send voice instructions from the Even side to AI coding agents such as Codex and Claude Code. On the PC side, you run Even Terminal, then add that host from the Even Realities App.
What you need
- Even G2
- A smartphone with the Even Realities App
- A PC or Mac
- Node.js and npm
- A CLI coding agent such as Codex or Claude Code
- A network where the PC and phone can communicate
Update the Even Realities App, make sure your Even G2 is connected normally, and prepare the CLI agent you want to use on your PC.
If Codex CLI or Claude Code CLI is not ready yet, check Installing and verifying Codex CLI or Installing and verifying Claude Code CLI first.
Step 1: Connect Even G2
Open the Even Realities App on your phone and confirm that Even G2 is connected. If normal notifications and display features work, you can move on to Terminal Mode.
Step 2: Install Even Terminal on the PC
Install @evenrealities/even-terminal and run even-terminal from a terminal where Node.js and npm are available.
npm install -g @evenrealities/even-terminal
even-terminalWhen it starts, Even Terminal prints Local, LAN, Token, CWD, a connection URL, and a QR code. Keep this terminal window open while you connect from the phone.
Even Terminal v0.7.7
Local: http://localhost:3456
LAN : http://192.168.x.x:3456
Token: abc12345...def67890
CWD : /Users/your-name
http://192.168.x.x:3456?token=abc12345...def67890&defaultProvider=claudeStep 3: Add the PC as a host
In the Even Realities App, open Terminal Mode and choose Add Host. Enter the LAN URL and Token shown in the PC terminal. You can also choose whether to use Codex, Claude Code, or another supported agent from this host setup screen.
The QR code includes the connection URL, token, and defaultProvider. The token is connection credential data, so avoid sharing screenshots that include it.
Step 4: Select a session
After the connection succeeds, recent sessions are shown in a list. Select the session you want to operate. You can switch sessions later.
Step 5: Send voice instructions
After selecting a session, speak the instruction from the Even side. You can pass the next action, an additional check, or a change in direction as a short voice instruction.
If connection fails
- The Even Realities App is up to date
- Even G2 is connected to the phone
- even-terminal is still running on the PC
- The PC and phone can communicate on the network
- Firewall or local network settings are not blocking the connection
- Codex or Claude Code authentication is already complete
- If command not found appears, the target CLI is on PATH
Terminal Mode is still new, but in actual use it feels useful as a voice input route for giving work instructions to an AI agent.
Even Terminal also appears to have an option for Tailscale. That may make Terminal Mode usable outside the same LAN. We will add notes after confirming that setup.
