machine0 is a command-line interface tool designed for agent-driven computing. It allows users to create dedicated cloud virtual machines with the command machine0 new mybox, offering configurations ranging from small to powerful setups with up to 60 vCPUs, 240 GB of memory, and eight H100 GPUs. These resources are billed per minute and are intended to support long-running agent workloads. Agents manage the VMs directly through the CLI or via MCP, enabling persistent, continuous operation.
The shift in agent usage is moving away from short-lived, temporary tasks toward sustained, always-on operations. For example, coding agents may run for six to eight hours during complex feature development, while automated research agents can operate over multiple days. machine0 provides the infrastructure needed to host these evolving workflows, serving as the foundational environment for advanced agent-based development and computation.
