How to run coding agents on your own Linux server with Cloudroom Core

Install the core on a VPS or home server so Claude Code and Codex run there, not on your laptop.

Credentials. Agents use your own model logins on this server, so protect the secret token and the agent login files on the machine.

Who it is forA developer whose laptop is too slow or too busy for long agent sessions and who has a spare Ubuntu 24.04 machine.

The problemAgent sessions tie up a laptop, stop when the lid closes, and leave no shared place to keep their work.

The outcomeA single Cloudroom core service on your machine that runs agents in their own room and keeps their chat history.

What you need first

  • A Linux machine, such as a VPS, home server, or spare laptop, running Ubuntu 24.04 for the one-script install
  • Your own logins for the agent CLIs you want to run, since agents use your own logins to call their models
  • Git, and Rust 1.89 or newer if you build from source
  • Optional: a Tailscale account to reach the core from other devices

Steps

  1. Open the [install guide](docs/setup.md) and run the one-script install on Ubuntu 24.04.
  2. Follow [reach it from your laptop](docs/setup.md#reach-it-from-your-other-devices) to connect over Tailscale.
  3. Sign in to each agent CLI you plan to use with your own login, so the agent can call its model.
  4. Read the [HTTP API](docs/api.md) and send a request with your secret token to create a session.
  5. Check the session in the saved history and confirm the agent responded.

Prompt for your agent

Using the cloudroom-core repo, install the core on <server-host> following docs/setup.md, then create one session for Claude Code using the HTTP API in docs/api.md. Expected output: the session ID and the agent's first reply. Verify that the API rejects a request sent without the secret token.

Caveat. Agents run without approval prompts, so this setup fits only a machine that belongs to you or a user you fully trust.
