SSH turns any VPS into an agent node: Codex, Claude Code, Kimi all know how to delegate remotely

A practical distributed-agent workflow: deploy agents on VPS boxes anywhere, then invoke and direct them from a Mac over SSH. The author found Codex, Claude Code, and even Kimi and Doubao all know how to delegate tasks to remote sibling nodes via SSH. A screenshot shows a hands-on case: a Windows-side Claude Code running in the background to install deepseek harness and the official DeepSeek desktop app, with safety constraints (no printing keys, only DeepSeek API allowed, don't touch opencode config or /.claude, stop when uncertain) combined with --dangerously-skip-permissions for unattended software installs. The author muses: put the control node on your phone and you can command a global agent fleet from anywhere.
