Simular launches box: a cloud Linux desktop your AI agents control via MCP
alifcoder · x · 2026-11-13
Simular released box, a hosted cloud Linux desktop exposed as a remote MCP server that lets Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor and other agents use a real computer — open a browser, click, type, read the screen and run commands. Setup is via the MCP endpoint with OAuth or a bearer key, or a one-line npx @simular-ai/[email protected] connect for local coding agents. The box is free; it sleeps when idle (deleted after 14 straight days asleep) and model calls draw on account credits.
