We’re Nick and Drew, and we’re building Boxes.dev – the first cloud-only agentic dev environment (ADE) that gives every codex and cloud code agent its own cloud computer.
We spent the last year coding almost exclusively with Codex/Cloud Code, but we were tired of leaving our laptops open and dealing with useless Git worktrees. Developing on localhost was holding us back, so we decided to build the cloud-based ADE we wanted.
We’re obviously biased, but we’ve been building Boxes.dev with Boxes.dev for several months and it’s been a gamechanger – it’s hard to imagine going back.
key features:
-
Super easy setup (our agent scans your local dev setup and ports it to the cloud)
-
Full-featured desktop, CLI, and mobile apps (not just handoff or remote control)
-
Uses your cloud code/codex subscription (native harness and familiar UX)
-
Your coding agents can run/test your entire app end-to-end in isolation
-
Scheduled Automation and Slack Integration
-
Optimized for parallel agent workflows
All new users get 10 free box-hours to test it out on Boxes.dev. Hope you give it a try – would love any feedback!
