Boxd Remote Development Environments
Every boxd VM now ships with:
• Ubuntu default OS image
• Pre-installed coding agents (claude, codex, etc.)
• All of your favourite integrations (linear, slack, etc.)
Try it out now at https://t.co/wUsrbhpKWp
boxd has moved to bare metal, increasing reliability and speed dramatically.
• boot fresh vm's in <10ms
• Fork, snapshot, suspend & resume at the highest pace possible.
• available worldwide with a US cluster opening soon.

@boxd_sh machines are the fastest in the market 🏎️
@i_am_laurci went to bed at 5am to pull off this migration to bare metal servers. And with success: you can now create machines in around 4-6 milliseconds. For reference, you blink at around 100-150ms. So creating a machine is 20-35 times faster.
And the speed inside the machines is close to the speed on your laptop (if you have a recent one at least, otherwise your laptop might be slower 😄)

@boxd_sh is hiring 🦾
We have the following open roles:
- Founding Software Engineer, Full-stack, Amsterdam (or Bucharest) (https://t.co/Kb6v169oJH)
- Founders Associate, Amsterdam (https://t.co/TAevobt86L)
- Software Development Intern, Amsterdam (https://t.co/xf419BskTM)
- Operations Intern, Amsterdam (https://t.co/Kj9P8PYhIA)
In short, boxd builds development environments for fast-growing engineering teams: lightning-fast, persistent-by-default, hardware-isolated, and forkable machines. Soon, 99.9% of code will be written and maintained by agents, and they'll need billions of machines exactly like these. That's what we're building.
Do you want to be part of the journey, please let me know or apply here:

Hope to chat soon 🤙
Close your laptop and your Claude code agents continue working
run:
1. boxd new
2. tmux
3. claude --dangerously-skip-permissions (or without the flag if you don't want to get any work done)
To continue from your phone, run inside Claude:
4. /remote-control

Create 20 VMs in 1.78 seconds! Agents LOVE our infra 🏎️ 🏎️ 🏎️ 🏎️
Most infra sucks (GitHub Actions, spinning up a VM on AWS/GCP/Azure, and don't get me started on managed services like Azure App Service/GCloud Run). Today's agents are F1 cars. But most teams run them through city traffic, fill the tank with cheap fuel, and skip the pit crew. The car is built for 300 km/h, your infra decides whether it ever gets there
That's why agents love the speed and composability of @boxd_sh . Below you see how I create 20 VMs in 1.78 seconds, destroy 10 of them, and then FORK the remaining 10 three times, creating 30 LIVE MEMORY FORKS (your processes keep running).
This is only possible because we don't build on top of average OSS software (like Firecracker) - we built everything from the ground up. If you're serious about your agents productivity, stop running an F1 car through city traffic. Give it a clear track, a full tank, and a pit crew that turns it around in seconds
@Max33Verstappen if you ever switch careers and want to give your agents a computer, let me know 🏎️ 🏎️ 🏎️ 🏎️
Bindu x https://t.co/1TcvAQF257 🌼 🌼
@boxd_sh now supports Bindu agents! Bindu agents. Bindu turns any agent in a live microservice. From now on, these services do not need to run locally anymore. By specifying the runtime, they can run on boxd machines. All with the same level of interoperability, observability, and composability.
