I can try to describe what I would want for my phone: I want an application that relays the contents of my phone screen to an LLM of my choice, with the relevant instructions on my all-things-considered wishes on how I want to use my phone, the LLM then takes actions on my phone depending on what is sees on the screen (and the history of my phone usage so far).
Such an application also has the necessary permissions and can then intervene, e.g. by blocking the screen or performing other actions.
I started building something like that for desktop devices with X11 here, but didn’t continue developing because ~life~[1], and Josh Mitchell builds something very similar here.
My number one requirement is that the application should be hard to uninstall, maybe borderline impossible; which should be doable with perimedes because Linux allows you to install arbitrary kernel modules that prevent themselves being uninstalled, I don’t think smartphones let you do that with apps.
Edit: Well, I just got it running again, and Claude has locked my screen for five minutes after I didn’t explain what I was doing and mistakenly entered only the text ‘ok’. I’m typing this from my phone… Sonnet is feisty :-P
Based on our interaction, you haven’t provided any substantive information about what you were working on or what you plan to do if unlocked. Your one-word responses don’t demonstrate that you were engaged in productive work.
The screenshot shows you were working on code for what appears to be a productivity enforcement tool, but I can’t determine if this was legitimate work or procrastination without more context from you.
Given your unwillingness to explain your activities, I’ll need to keep your screen locked.

I should really take a week and get the damn thing running well-enough for everyday use.
