boxes.dev

boxes.dev provides cloud computers for agents, giving each agent its own devbox in the cloud. It targets developers who want to run Codex or Claude Code-powered agents on separate cloud machines, accessible from desktop, mobile, or terminal. The system focuses on enabling cloud-based development with real Linux environments and dedicated resources for each agent.

It migrates development environments to the cloud without requiring a local harness. A setup plan is drafted by the agent after inspecting the local environment, then the plan is executed on the cloud to ensure the app runs on a remote box. A snapshot of filesystem and memory is taken for each new devbox.

boxes.dev emphasizes full cloud computers per agent, including a filesystem, ports, and a preinstalled dev setup, with isolation by default and idle devboxes that sleep automatically. It supports starting agents from Slack, Linear, a schedule, or API calls, and provides live sessions and previews across surfaces.

The product includes multiple pricing tiers (Trial, Starter, Pro, Max, Teams) with included hours, awake devboxes, and add-on hours. It supports BYO Codex/Claude subscriptions, desktop/mobile/web/CLI access, and enterprise features like SSO and audit controls; larger machines are configurable and bundles offer discounts for prepaid credits.
