A Linux box that keeps your repos, tools, and running services between sessions. Reachable at your own subdomain, worked on by a team.
Shell, editor, ports, previews, files. No new mental model. It is a machine you have root on, running where your team can reach it.
A real filesystem the agent reads and writes: a git-aware tree, diffs, and a Monaco editor, on the box you set up once.
Remote-SSH into the same box. Your editor, your extensions, its files.
Pull a running app down to your machine, or push a public preview up.
Each running app gets a URL on your subdomain. Share it like forwarding a link.
Same box you SSH into. apt, systemd, and your history, all there.
Ask @kumo in the thread and it runs on your persistent environment, not a throwaway scratchpad. It uses your installed tools, your services, your repos, then reports back where everyone can see.
Close your laptop. It keeps running. The box runs server-side, so you can start a job, shut the lid, and check it from your phone; the work keeps going without you.
Connect an account once and the agent works where your work lives: open issues, push branches, post updates, ship deploys.
Most cloud agents hand you a fresh sandbox and one seat. State evaporates, and you work alone. Kumo is the opposite on both counts.
No, on two counts. The box is persistent: your repos, tools, and running services stay put between sessions instead of resetting. And it is shared: a whole team and the agent work in one thread, not a single-player session.
The filesystem, installed packages (apt, language runtimes), Docker images and volumes, dotfiles, and long-running services. The box suspends when idle to save cost, then wakes on the next request in under a second.
Yes. You get root over SSH, and a one-command Remote-SSH link for VS Code or Cursor. The browser shell, editor, and your local tools all point at the same box.
Your box. It uses the tools you installed, the services you have running, and your real repos, then opens a PR with a live preview URL on your subdomain. It is not a disposable scratchpad.
Yes. Invite anyone into a thread as a participant. They can read along, post, and, if you grant it, prompt the agent, all without an environment of their own.
Kumo is in beta and free while we are early. The box, the shared thread, the agent, and the connectors all work now.
A persistent environment at your own subdomain, an agent working inside it, and room for your whole team.
