A Cloud Built for Agents: exe dev

davidcrawshaw · x · 2026-07-19

This post praises a cloud service called exe dev, highlighting its core selling point: a cloud that feels like buying hardware monthly. Users can spin up nearly unlimited VMs for personal projects.

Typical use cases include spinning up dedicated instances for Hermes agents, running Claude Code sessions on dedicated machines, replacing Neon/Prisma Cloud for Postgres, and launching webservers for temporary sandbox projects. The author emphasizes it is not based on Docker, but rather aims to maintain VM state. It also features a web-accessible LLM (Shelley) that can even help with CLI logins via mobile.
