Idle9

Give your AI a real computer.

It keeps what it installed last week — the tools, the caches, the repos, the half-finished branch — and it is still there tomorrow.

One computer, two apps, a week apart — and not a single npm install in between.

on real Ubuntu

Your AI has no computer

Every session it is handed a blank machine, does the setup again, and loses the lot when the tab closes.

• Wiped at the end of every session

• Reinstalls the same dependencies, forever

• Learns your project, then forgets it

• Long-running services die with it

• Still there next week, with last week's disk

• Tools it installed once stay installed

• Notes, caches and branches accumulate

• Your dev server keeps its public URL

Connect it in thirty seconds

No CLI, no config file, no key to keep somewhere safe.

What you get

A computer, not a sandbox. You have root on it, and it is still there tomorrow.

It keeps everything

Installed packages, databases, caches, env vars and files all survive every sleep.

It parks itself when idle

After 20 quiet minutes the whole disk is archived. Touch it again and it is back in seconds.

It can show you its work

Ask your AI to expose a port and it hands back a real URL.

You can sit down at it too

SSH in with the client you already have. scp, rsync and remote editing all work.

It is properly walled off

Each computer runs in its own kernel-level sandbox, so root inside it stays inside it.

It grows with you

Add machines or disk whenever a project needs them, and give them back when it does not.

A disk that survives is a kind of memory

A computer remembers by being changed. The linter your AI installed is on the disk. The build cache is warm. The branch it was halfway through is still checked out.

None of that had to be summarised or fetched back into a context window. It is simply the state of a machine that nobody wiped.

What it costs

One plan, and add-ons only if a second project needs them.
