Self-hosted agent cloud: host always initiates connection, relay only wakes it

PawelHuryn · x · 2026-09-08

A technical exchange about a self-hosted AI agent environment. The author clarifies the connection model: the host always initializes the connection, while the cloud relay only wakes it up.

The environment runs Linux with whatever you ask the agent to install, shipping with Codex, Grok Build, Claude Code, GitHub CLI, plus a custom service that a relay web app can connect to. Users bring their own subscriptions; each provider requires clicking a link to activate a new device, and Meta isn't supported.
