Can I continue an autonomous spike if I need changes?

Yes, Hatch supports a '--continue' flag that allows you to add new instructions to a completed spike, which updates the existing branch and Pull Request.

How does Hatch ensure safety during provisioning?

Hatch enforces a two-step workflow for all resource-modifying commands: a '--dry-run' to preview changes followed by a '--confirm' with a unique token to execute.

Which cloud providers and tools does Hatch support?

Hatch primarily provisions virtual machines on exe.dev and integrates seamlessly with Vercel for frontend hosting, Convex for backend services, and GitHub for version control.

What are the local requirements for using Hatch?

Hatch is designed for Claude Code and requires pnpm to be installed locally to manage dependencies and run CLI commands from the ~/.hatch-cli directory.

What is a 'spike' in Hatch?

A spike is an autonomous task where a Claude agent creates a VM, executes a specific plan based on your prompt, writes code, and submits a Pull Request independently.

Infraestructura en la Nube

Provisions on-demand cloud VMs for rapid project prototyping, feature development, and autonomous agent-led coding tasks.

Hatch is a specialized CLI-driven skill for Claude Code that simplifies the development lifecycle by provisioning isolated exe.dev VMs. It allows developers to quickly bootstrap new full-stack projects integrated with GitHub, Vercel, and Convex. Whether you need an interactive environment for manual development or an autonomous 'spike' where an AI agent plans, codes, and submits Pull Requests independently, Hatch manages the infrastructure, deployment, and status monitoring within a secure, safety-first workflow.
