Real Linux.
Operated by prompt.
Your AI gets its own Linux machine. You tell it what to do — deploy a site, add a domain, fix a 500 — and it runs the commands.
Got it. Here’s the plan:
- 01Scaffold ~/public_html/index.php — hero, bio, contact form
- 02Create ~/data/contacts.db with a submissions table
- 03POST handler with CSRF + honeypot, success redirect
Live at:
alice.sshgrid.com/admin page so I can read submissionsYou describe it. It runs it.
No yaml. No control panel. Your AI has the machine; you tell it what to do. We help manage context so each thread picks up where you left off.
Tell it what you want, the way you'd tell a teammate.
One agent on your Linux box — you message it like a teammate. SSHGrid keeps context per conversation, so you don't re-explain your stack every time. It writes PHP and SQLite into your home directory, handles vhosts and certs, and serves on your subdomain.
- Plain English — or shell, if you prefer
- Context managed per thread — resume any chat
- 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 boilerplate.
You tell it what you want. It asks only what it needs, then runs it on your machine.
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. My agent set up cron, certs, and a preview build 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. The whole “onboard a new client” flow is one sentence to the agent — build it, point this domain at it, done.
