Matrix OS
A cloud computer for you and your agents
What it does
Matrix OS gives you and your AI agents a persistent computer in the cloud. Run Claude Code, Codex and other agents without tying them to your laptop. Keep your files, repos, terminals and apps running, close your laptop, and come back from any device. Run multiple agents in parallel, or self-host Matrix for full control.
Give AI agents their own cloud computer. Run Claude, Codex, Cursor, and more in a persistent hosted workspace, even when your laptop sleeps.
Sessions keep running when this window—or your laptop—closes. Give Claude, Codex, Cursor, and Hermes one private workspace that keeps running when your laptop closes. Help me set up Matrix OS, my own cloud dev computer. Steps: 1. Install the CLI: npm install -g @finnaai/matrix or brew install finnaai/tap/matrix. 2. Run matrix login --profile cloud. It opens a browser/device login that I will approve. 3. If no Matrix instance exists, tell me to sign up at https://app.matrix-os.com, then re-run login. 4. Verify with matrix doctor and matrix whoami. 5. Start my preferred coding agent inside Matrix with matrix run -it --session setup -- claude or matrix run -it --session setup -- codex. I will…from matrix-os.com

- STSkill that lets Claude Code/Codex spin up VMs and GPUsFeb 2026 · cloudrouter.dev · ▲138
I've been working on CloudRouter, a skill + CLI that gives coding agents like Claude Code and Codex the ability to start cloud VMs and GPUs. When an agent writes code, it usually needs to start a dev server, run tests, open a browser to verify its work. Today that all happens on your local machine. This works fine for a single task, but the agent is sharing your computer: your ports, RAM, screen. If you run multiple agents in parallel, it gets a bit chaotic. Docker helps with isolation, but it still uses your machine's resources, and doesn't give the agent a browser, a desktop, or a GPU to…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…

I made OwnTime to balance between competing priorities in my life. The idea is based on two main influences: the concept of "roles" from "The 5 Choices" (2015), and my repeated failure to effectively implement time blocking due to the necessary flexibility in my role. The app allows you to define time budgets, which are not much more than a few mutually exclusive countdown timers. The UX is essentially that of a chess clock for an arbitrary number of players with configurable time. The whole point of the app is to kick you out of the running role/priority when its time is up. One…
