Where agents run

An agent needs a computer to run on. Use a teammate's computer, or a cloud box that is always on.

The engine#

Each agent runs on Claude Code or Codex. You pick one under Limits and engine. The agent uses that AI account, so your existing AI plan pays for its thinking.

On a teammate's computer#

A teammate's Mac, Windows or Linux computer can run agents with their own Claude Code or Codex login. Install the Homla CLI, then:

Terminal
wedge agents runner install --name "Office Mac"

The computer then appears under Runners. Manage it with:

Terminal
wedge agents runner status
wedge agents runner pause
wedge agents runner resume
wedge agents runner uninstall

Runs wait while the computer is off or asleep. Their status shows Waiting for a computer.

On a cloud box#

A cloud box is a small server that is always on. It costs $25, $50 or $100 a month, by size. Cloud boxes are switched on for your workspace by Homla, so ask us first.
