Real Linux.
Operated by prompt.
An AI agent runs as your Linux user, on a real server. Tell it to deploy a site, add a domain, fix a 500 — it runs the actual commands.
~/uploads/site.zip
Got it. Here’s the plan:
- 01Unzip into ~/public_html/
- 02Validate Apache config
- 03Graceful reload + smoke test
Site is live:
alice.sshgrid.comYou describe it. It runs it.
No yaml. No control panel. Just type the thing you wish someone would do for you. Two agents handle the rest.
Tell it what you want, the way you'd tell a teammate.
Two agents, both warm in tmux. Ops handles infrastructure. Dev writes and runs your code. Conversations resume exactly where you left them.
- Plain English — or shell, if you prefer
- One dispatch = one prompt, no matter how many tool calls
- Conversations are private to your account
It runs the actual commands — on your real Linux.
Every action goes through your own user account. No sandbox, no proprietary runtime, no abstraction layer. Bash, PHP, Python, SQLite, and friends.
- Apache 2.4 + mpm_itk (your UID)
- PHP 8.3, Python 3.12, SQLite, certbot
- Streamed back to your browser via SSE

Your site is live, with SSL, on a real domain.
Your subdomain is included free. Bring your own whenever — point an A record, ask the agent, and the cert lands automatically and renews itself.
Hi, I'm Alice.
Software engineer building things on bare Linux. Latest project: a contact form that fits in 18 lines of PHP.
Watch agents at work — right now.
A streaming sample of what builders are asking. Anonymized handles, real commands.
Real scenarios, no copy-pasta.
Tell the agent what you want. It asks only what it needs to know.
Ship a side project tonight
Static, PHP, or SQLite-backed — the agent unpacks, deploys, and certs.
Wire up a custom domain
Point an A record. Tell the agent. Cert + vhost happen automatically.
Debug a 500 in production
Tail logs, propose a fix, and roll it out without leaving the chat.
Schedule nightly backups
Cron, retention, and a dry-run all in one prompt.
A new shape of hosting.

People who'd rather build than configure.
I cancelled three SaaS subscriptions the day I got my SSHGrid handle. The Ops agent set up cron, certs, and a dev preview faster than I could’ve alt-tabbed to a control panel.
The thing that sold me: when something breaks, I tail my actual log file inside the chat. No proprietary “observability layer.” Just files.
I run a 5-person agency. We host every micro-site for our clients on SSHGrid now. Onboarding is “tell the agent the domain.” That’s it.
