Does exe.dev support Docker?

Yes, Docker is fully supported and works out of the box on default exeuntu images.

How does the built-in LLM gateway work?

The platform provides a local proxy at a specific internal IP that allows VMs to access Anthropic, OpenAI, and other providers without requiring separate API keys.

What is the difference between ssh exe.dev and ssh vmname.exe.xyz?

ssh exe.dev targets the 'lobby,' a management interface for VM lifecycles and settings, while ssh vmname.exe.xyz provides a direct connection to the VM's shell for file transfers and command execution.

What is the Shelley agent included in this skill?

Shelley is a web-based, multi-modal coding agent pre-installed on exe.dev VMs that can execute natural language tasks and manage the environment autonomously.

How fast are VMs provisioned on exe.dev?

VM creation on exe.dev is nearly instant, typically taking about 2 seconds to spin up a new instance.

Cloud Infrastructure

Manages virtual machine lifecycles and cloud infrastructure on the exe.dev platform using SSH-based commands and API integrations.

The exe-dev-knowledge skill provides comprehensive expertise for interacting with the exe.dev subscription VM service. It enables Claude to manage the entire VM lifecycle—from instant provisioning and cloning to resizing and deletion—while navigating the platform's unique SSH-based CLI architecture. This skill is essential for developers using exe.dev as a remote development environment, offering guidance on HTTPS proxying, custom domains, the built-in LLM gateway, and the Shelley autonomous coding agent.

Key Features

01Configuration of instant HTTPS proxies, port sharing, and custom domain mapping

02Support for programmatic access via HTTPS API and exe0/exe1 token generation

030 GitHub stars

04Complete VM lifecycle management including creation, cloning, and tagging via SSH CLI

05Detailed guidance on the two-tier SSH architecture (Lobby vs. Direct VM access)

06Integration with the Shelley agent for autonomous web-based coding tasks

Use Cases

01Automating infrastructure tasks using the exe.dev API and VM-scoped tokens

02Setting up public-facing web applications with automatic TLS and custom DNS

03Rapidly provisioning and configuring remote 'dev boxes' for isolated project environments
