Quick Start
CloudCLI Cloud (Recommended)
The fastest way to get started — no local setup required. Get a fully managed, containerized development environment accessible from the web, mobile app, API, or your favorite IDE.
Get started with CloudCLI Cloud
Self-Hosted (Open source)
npm
Try CloudCLI UI instantly with npx (requires Node.js v22+):
npx @cloudcli-ai/cloudcli
Or install globally for regular use:
npm install -g @cloudcli-ai/cloudcli
cloudcli
Open http://localhost:3001 — all your existing sessions are discovered automatically.
Visit the documentation → for full configuration options, PM2, remote server setup and more.
Docker Sandboxes (Experimental)
Run agents in isolated sandboxes with hypervisor-level isolation. Starts Claude Code by default. Requires the sbx CLI.
npx @cloudcli-ai/cloudcli@latest sandbox ~/my-project
Supports Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI. See the sandbox docs for setup and advanced options.
Which option is right for you?
CloudCLI UI is the open source UI layer that powers CloudCLI Cloud. You can self-host it on your own machine, run it in a Docker sandbox for isolation, or use CloudCLI Cloud for a fully managed environment.
| Self-Hosted (npm) | Self-Hosted (Docker Sandbox) (Experimental) | CloudCLI Cloud | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best for | Local agent sessions on your own machine | Isolated agents with web/mobile IDE | Teams who want agents in the cloud |
| How you access it | Browser via [yourip]:port | Browser via localhost:port | Browser, any IDE, REST API, n8n |
| Setup | npx @cloudcli-ai/cloudcli | npx @cloudcli-ai/cloudcli@latest sandbox ~/project | No setup required |
| Isolation | Runs on your host | Hypervisor-level sandbox (microVM) | Full cloud isolation |
| Machine needs to stay on | Yes | Yes | No |
| Mobile access | Any browser on your network | Any browser on your network | Any device, native app coming |
| Agents supported | Claude Code, Cursor CLI, Codex, Gemini CLI | Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI | Claude Code, Cursor CLI, Codex, Gemini CLI |
| File explorer and Git | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| MCP configuration | Synced with ~/.claude | Managed via UI | Managed via UI |
| REST API | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Team sharing | No | No | Yes |
| Platform cost | Free, open source | Free, open source | Starts at $7/month |
All options use your own AI subscriptions (Claude, Cursor, etc.) — CloudCLI provides the environment, not the AI.
Security & Tools Configuration
🔒 Important Notice: All Claude Code tools are disabled by default. This prevents potentially harmful operations from running automatically.
Enabling Tools
To use Claude Code's full functionality, you'll need to manually enable tools:
- Open Tools Settings - Click the gear icon in the sidebar
- Enable Selectively - Turn on only the tools you need
- Apply Settings - Your preferences are saved locally
Tools Settings interface - enable only what you need
Recommended approach: Start with basic tools enabled and add more as needed. You can always adjust these settings later.
Plugins
CloudCLI has a plugin system that lets you add custom tabs with their own frontend UI and optional Node.js backend. Install plugins from git repos directly in Settings > Plugins, or build your own.
Available Plugins
| Plugin | Description |
|---|---|
| Project Stats | Shows file counts, lines of code, file-type breakdown, largest files, and recently modified files for your current project |
| Web Terminal | Full xterm.js terminal with multi-tab support |
| CloudCLI Scheduler | Create workspace-scoped scheduled prompts and execute them through a local CLI such as Codex, Claude Code, or Gemini CLI |
Build Your Own

FAQ
<details> <summary>How is this different from Claude Code Remote Control?</summary>Claude Code Remote Control lets you send messages to a session already running in your local terminal. Your machine has to stay on, your terminal has to stay open, and sessions time out after roughly 10 minutes without a network connection.
CloudCLI UI and CloudCLI Cloud extend Claude Code rather than sit alongside it — your MCP servers, permissions, settings, and sessions are the exact same ones Claude Code uses natively. Nothing is duplicated or managed separately.
Here's what that means in practice:
- All your sessions, not just one — CloudCLI UI auto-discovers every session from your
~/.claudefolder. Remote Control only exposes the single active session to make it available in the Claude mobile app. - Your settings are your settings — MCP servers, tool permissions, and project config you change in CloudCLI UI are written directly to your Claude Code config and take effect immediately, and vice versa.
- Works with more agents — Claude Code, Cursor CLI, Codex, and Gemini CLI, not just Claude Code.
- Full UI, not just a chat window — file explorer, Git integration, MCP management, and a shell terminal are all built in.
- CloudCLI Cloud runs in the cloud — close your laptop, the agent keeps running. No terminal to babysit, no machine to keep awake.
Yes. CloudCLI provides the environment, not the AI. You bring your own Claude, Cursor, Codex, or Gemini subscription. CloudCLI Cloud starts at $7/month for the hosted environment on top of that.
</details> <details> <summary>Can I use CloudCLI UI on my phone?</summary>Yes. For self-hosted, run the server on your machine and open [yourip]:port in any browser on your network. For CloudCLI Cloud, open it from any device — no VPN, no port forwarding, no setup. A native app is also in the works.
Yes, for self-hosted. CloudCLI UI reads from and writes to the same ~/.claude config that Claude Code uses natively. MCP servers you add via the UI show up in Claude Code immediately and vice versa.
