I built this because I was always creating machines on GH actions to test builds on different OS, and I wanted a tight CLI that could do it. I always saw Actions as this great resources and ephemeral machines you could do dev work in just were a natural way for me to work, so this grew out of that workflow. I didn't expect it to blow up, so it wasn't 100% finished when I posted it. But it should stabilize pretty quickly. Happy to know what you think and talk about it.

Hi HN! A few days ago I realised my own project Pibox. I believe that it is the easiest way to communicate and share large files in original quality. It`s messenger and cloud storage in one app. So you can send even 4k video on 150 GB from your GoPro or iPhone\Nexus without any problem. We launched on 30th May and now get 8k users with 4.5 stars in Google Play Now, everyone can get up to 1000 GB for free. What about secret sauce you will ask? We are working on AI based smart assistant inside Pibox - HiPi. It`s: 1. One centralized Assistant to which you can connect any other services. No more…
