Most engineering teams run AI coding agents on individual laptops. Close the lid, lose the session. When a new developer joins, they spend hours recreating the same setup.
CloudCLI gives your team shared cloud environments where AI agents run 24/7. Every developer gets their own isolated container, but the team shares MCP servers, context files, and configurations across all projects. Onboarding takes minutes.
Sessions can be started through a full REST API, so workflows in Linear, Jira, or n8n can trigger background coding agents programmatically. A ticket gets filed, an agent starts coding, the developer reviews the PR in the morning.
The web UI and mobile interface include a file explorer, git explorer, and full shell access. Review PRs on your iPad, make fixes from your phone, then pick up in VS Code over SSH.
Unlike GitHub Codespaces, CloudCLI is purpose-built for agentic development. Claude Code, Cursor CLI, Codex, and Gemini CLI come pre-installed. Sessions survive laptop closure. Teams bring their own API keys with no vendor lock-in.
Built on an open-source core (AGPL-3, 9,000+ GitHub stars). Self-host for data sovereignty or use the managed service from โฌ7/month.

CloudCLI's answer
CloudCLI is built with a modern JavaScript/TypeScript stack:
The entire codebase is open source under AGPL-3 and available on GitHub.
CloudCLI's answer
Compared to tools like GitHub Codespaces, CloudCLI is purpose-built for agentic development rather than traditional coding. Here's what sets it apart:
CloudCLI's answer
CloudCLI is one of the only cloud development environments built specifically for AI coding agents. Where Codespaces and Gitpod give you a cloud editor, CloudCLI gives your agents a persistent home that stays alive 24/7. What makes it particularly valuable for teams: shared MCP servers and environment configs mean every developer starts from the same baseline. A full REST API means sessions can be triggered from automation tools, not just opened manually. Background agents can run overnight and produce PRs for review in the morning. And the entire platform is open source (AGPL-3) so teams can self-host on their own infrastructure.
CloudCLI's answer
CloudCLI is built for engineering teams that use AI coding agents as part of their daily workflow. This includes teams adopting agentic development practices with tools like Claude Code, Cursor CLI, or Codex who need shared environments where MCP servers, context files, and configurations stay consistent across every developer. It also serves engineering managers looking to integrate AI agents into existing workflows through API-driven automation with tools like Linear, Jira, and n8n. Solo developers and open-source contributors who want persistent remote access from any device are also a core audience, along with organizations that need to self-host for data sovereignty or regulatory compliance.
CloudCLI's answer
CloudCLI started as an open-source project to solve a problem every developer using AI coding agents hits: your agent ties up your terminal and stops working when your laptop sleeps. We built a cloud-native environment where agents run persistently, paired with an open-source web UI so anyone could manage sessions from a browser or phone. As teams started adopting it, the focus shifted to shared environments, where team-wide MCP servers, configurations, and context files could be maintained in one place instead of duplicated across every developer's machine. The project grew to 9,000+ GitHub stars organically with no marketing. Today CloudCLI offers both a free self-hosted option and a managed cloud service starting at โฌ7/month.

Virtualization has continued to improve with technology and the speed of the internet. You can enhance your device by merely leveraging the high-performance computers in the cloud without having to worry about how good your computer is. Upgrades are as simple as a click of a button. Try services like Shells or Amazon Workspaces. Source: almost 4 years ago
Yes, that should be possible. https://aws.amazon.com/workspaces/ might be easier. But either is going to be expensive to run with a usable amount of RAM. Why are you trying to do this? Source: almost 4 years ago
