Overview

Every AI agent you run is fighting for your localhost. Your ports clash. Your fans scream. Your agent just rm -rf'd something it shouldn't have.

Gibil forges real servers — full VMs with root access, Docker, and your repo cloned — in under 30 seconds. When the work is done, the fire goes out. No trace left.

npm install -g gibil

gibil create --name my-app --repo github.com/you/project --ttl 30
gibil run my-app "pnpm install && pnpm test"
gibil destroy my-app

What you get

Every Gibil server is a fresh Ubuntu VM with its own IP, SSH access, and full root. Not a container. Not a sandbox.

Feature	Gibil	Typical sandbox
Root access	Yes	No
Docker	Pre-installed	Maybe
SSH	Yes	No
Own public IP	Yes	No
TTL auto-destroy	Yes	No
`--json` for agents	Every command	Rarely

Two ways to use Gibil

I'm a developer

Forge a server, SSH in, run your tests. Five minutes from install to working VM.

I'm building an AI agent

Give your agent its own machine with --json output and MCP integration.

How it works

  FORGE                    USE                     BURN
  ─────                    ───                     ────
  gibil create             gibil run / gibil ssh   gibil destroy

  Fresh VM in ~30s         Full root access        Server deleted
  Repo cloned              Docker ready            Keys cleaned up
  Deps installed           Own IP address          No trace left

The server auto-destroys after the TTL you set. Forget to clean up? The fire goes out on its own.
