SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the problem of manually managing exe.dev virtual machines by providing an easy CLI to create, operate, and control VM access from Zo.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • VM Lifecycle Management: List, create (with image/env/prompt), delete, restart, rename, and copy VMs.
  • Remote Execution & Access: Run commands on a specific VM via exe.dev SSH, and retrieve account info.
  • Sharing & HTTP Proxy Setup: Configure sharing state (public/private), set HTTP proxy port, share with email, and generate shareable links for HTTP access.
  • Use Case: You need a fresh Ubuntu VM with a Node.js starter workflow and a web-exposed app; create the VM with the desired image and prompt, then set an HTTP proxy port and share it with teammates via email or a link.

Quick Start

Create a new VM named myvm using Ubuntu 22.04 and an initial prompt by running: bun Skills/exe-dev/scripts/exe.ts new --name myvm --image ubuntu:22.04 --prompt "Install Node.js and create a hello world app".

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate exe.dev virtual machine provisioning and lifecycle management?▼

You can automate exe.dev virtual machine provisioning by using the integrated CLI to create, list, restart, rename, copy, and delete VMs with optional JSON output for machine-readable responses.

How can I share HTTP access to a remote VM with collaborators?▼

You can share HTTP access by configuring the VM's sharing state to public, setting an HTTP proxy port, and generating a shareable link or sending an email invitation directly through the CLI.

Do I need SSH setup to run commands on a remote exe.dev VM?▼

Yes, you need an exe.dev SSH-based setup with Zo's public key registration to execute remote commands on a specific VM and retrieve account information securely.

Can I create an exe.dev VM with a specific OS image and startup script?▼

Yes, you can create a new VM specifying an OS image like Ubuntu 22.04 and provide an initial prompt to automatically install software and configure the environment upon creation.

What is the best way to integrate repeatable VM provisioning into a developer workflow?▼

Integrating repeatable VM provisioning is best done using the CLI's JSON output support, allowing you to script VM creation, remote command execution, and HTTP proxy configuration programmatically.

What are the limitations when configuring HTTP proxy ports for exe.dev VMs?▼

The CLI requires setting a specific HTTP proxy port for web-exposed access, and sharing state must be explicitly toggled to public for teammates to access the application via the generated link.
