Boxes.dev is a cloud based development environment that gives each coding agent (Claude Code or Codex) its own full Linux VM in the cloud. It automatically migrates your local dev environment to a cloud devbox, then lets you fork that devbox for each task. Each fork has its own filesystem, services, ports, and database state, so agents can run in parallel without interference. You can manage agents from desktop (macOS), mobile (iOS, Android), or CLI, and agents keep running even when you close your laptop.
