A fresh cloud computer for every AI coding agent you run
Every meaningful task gets a fresh Linux devbox with its own filesystem, processes and ports, so parallel agents never fight over resources or collide on ports.
Boxes.dev runs the native harness and your existing subscription or API key — no new agent framework, and no token resale.
Kick off work by mentioning @boxes.dev in Slack, assigning a Linear issue, scheduling a cron job, or calling the REST API, with results returned in the same channel.
Read threads, approve requests, review diffs or open a terminal on any surface, including full-featured native iOS and Android apps.
