# shed

> One-tap cloud Linux machines for Claude Code, Codex and any coding agent. Real Ubuntu with root and Docker, from $0.06 an hour while it runs. Close the laptop; your agents keep working.

shed gives each coding agent its own cloud Linux machine: Ubuntu 24.04 with root and Docker, Claude Code and Codex
installed, reachable from a browser, a phone, SSH, or an agent using curl and ssh. Machines sleep after an hour unused
and keep their files. Prices are per hour while running.

## Docs

- [shed for agents](https://shedix.dev/agents.md): How a coding agent uses shed with curl and ssh: start and wait, run commands, copy files, previews, sleep, and handing off a Claude Code session.
- [API reference](https://shedix.dev/docs/api.md): The shed HTTP API: create, start, stop and delete machines, wait until they're ready, SSH keys, keep awake, tokens and each machine's files and ports.

## Product

- [Pricing](https://shedix.dev/pricing.md): Pay only while a machine runs, from $0.06 an hour. Stop it and your files stay. Every size, disk, sleep and what each machine includes.
- [Questions](https://shedix.dev/faq.md): What shed is, which agents it works with, how long machines take, what happens when you close the laptop, what it costs and how it keeps your sign-ins private.
- [Security](https://shedix.dev/security.md): How shed keeps agents away from your computer and from each other: a VM per machine, an isolated network, private sign-ins, hashed tokens and links you choose to share.

## Use cases

- [Close the laptop](https://shedix.dev/use-cases/close-the-laptop.md): Move a running Claude Code session to a shed machine and keep it going after the lid shuts. Check on it from your phone.
- [Many at once](https://shedix.dev/use-cases/many-at-once.md): Run several coding agents side by side on one big machine, each in its own git worktree, without slowing your laptop.
- [Off your laptop](https://shedix.dev/use-cases/off-your-laptop.md): Run tests, builds and installs on a bigger cloud machine instead of your laptop, started and stopped by your agent.
- [Real Ubuntu](https://shedix.dev/use-cases/real-ubuntu.md): A clean Ubuntu machine with root and Docker for setups and experiments you'd rather not run on your own computer.

- [Preview a dev server running on a remote machine](https://shedix.dev/blog/preview-dev-server-remote-machine.md): Open a dev server that runs on a remote machine through a private SSH tunnel or a public link, and get past the Vite host check that blocks tunnels.
- [Run your test suite on a bigger machine](https://shedix.dev/blog/run-tests-on-a-bigger-machine.md): Send a slow test suite from a laptop agent to a remote Linux machine with rsync, ssh and tmux, bring the results back, and work out the cost of each run.
- [Run several coding agents at once with git worktrees](https://shedix.dev/blog/parallel-coding-agents-git-worktrees.md): Give each coding agent its own branch and folder with git worktrees, run each one in its own tmux session, and see where a laptop runs out of room.
- [Give your coding agent its own machine](https://shedix.dev/blog/give-your-coding-agent-its-own-machine.md): What a coding agent can reach on your main computer, what Claude Code and Codex permission modes and sandboxes cover, and why a separate VM is cleaner.
