Bring your own VPS

Turn a VPS into an AI workspace you can open from anywhere.

Hatchery links to a server you control, keeps Claude Code or Codex running on that machine, and gives you a live web control plane for setup, projects, logs, and follow-up work.

Start with your first server Log in

Own the box

Your VPS, your credentials, your repos.

Watch work live

Follow runs, outputs, and task history in the browser.

Start simple

Fresh VPS first, existing servers safely.

Link flow

10-minute path to first wow

Live

1. Install and authenticate

Set up Claude Code or Codex on your own VPS.

2. Run Hatchery install

Link the machine with one command and let the daemon phone home.

3. Open a project workspace

Import a repo, start from a template, or just try a starter project.

Hatchery helps with checks, setup flows, and visibility. Users and their chosen agent remain responsible for system-level changes.

For fresh VPSs

Best onboarding path

Start with a clean box, link it to Hatchery, and use guided setup flows for repos, projects, and runtime checks.

For existing servers

Inspect first, isolate first

Hatchery can link machines that already have work on them, but the product direction is to inspect, warn, and isolate before changing anything.

For beginners

Get to a working app fast

New repo, existing repo, or no repo at all. The goal is a fast path to a live run, a visible result, and a project you can keep using.
