Hey all. TL;DR: none of this is super novel or fancy, but the set of a few simple approaches (cloud VM, tailscale for connecting, strong isolation, long-running sessions, basic notifications) made using agents with all tools enabled much more useful for me.

I hadn’t seen many practical writeups on running coding agents in cloud VMs specifically, so I figured it was worth sharing what actually worked day-to-day for me. I use this approach practically daily now
