VPSmaxxing

**rent the cores · keep the cash · run your agents anywhere**

Turn a ~$5/mo cloud VPS into a dedicated, always-on workbench for Claude Code + Codex — set up by an agent, for your agents.

`your laptop --tailscale--> VPS · agents in tmux · docker · builds · 24/7`

**I couldn't find anything that would just *set this up* for me — so I spent hours figuring it out, and then turned the whole thing into a skill so you don't have to.** Point your Claude Code (or Codex) at this and it'll stand up your own cloud VPS as a dedicated AI-agent workbench: install the agents, network it privately, bring over your skills / memory / history / logins, and keep it all synced — so you can run agents 24/7, in parallel, from anything — **without dropping thousands on a maxed-out MacBook Pro.**

A rented Linux box with 8 cores and 32 GB costs a few dollars a month (or a few cents an hour). Your laptop becomes a thin cockpit; the VPS does the heavy lifting.

What it does

Provisions a fresh Linux VPS: git, Node + pnpm, Docker + compose, tmux (OS-aware: Amazon Linux 2023 / Ubuntu / Debian).
Installs + logs in Claude Code and OpenAI Codex.
Makes the box self-aware — hostname, MOTD, an agent launcher, and CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md that tell every agent it's a dedicated, headless AI host and how to behave (right package manager, expose ports via tunnels, don't nuke other sessions).
Networks it with Tailscale — SSH with zero public ports, stable address,
