Description

Back in April I left the Agents team at Cloudflare because even though I loved the work, I always had the drive to build the apps rather than the libraries. I felt like nobody was building the ideas that I wanted to exist.My biggest drive was wanting my agents to run fully on “the cloud” yet having them on all my machines at the same time. So I ended up building GSV, fully open source.GSV acts as a cloud computer by having a remote file system and a shell environment and trying very hard to pretend to be something close to Unix. There’s a kernel that handles all the primitive operations, including AI inference and the agent loop.At the same time, your devices (and browser!) can connect your GSV to provide file system and shell access to those same agents too. This allows your agents running on the edge to have access to your local devices.I’ve just released the beta and would love to hear feedback. As of today, it requires a Workers Paid account (~5$/mo) plus your model costs.

Could you build this?

No Building a unified personal cloud computer and orchestrator for autonomous agents across heterogeneous physical and cloud machines requires deep distributed systems, networking, and virtualization expertise.

What it would actually take: Requires an architecture involving wireguard-based mesh networking (similar to Tailscale) to interconnect personal devices, isolated sandbox execution environments (e.g., Firecracker microVMs or lightweight containers), and a resilient distributed agent runtime with fault-tolerant state consensus. The hard technical barriers are secure cross-device state synchronization, remote execution privilege sandboxing, and edge-to-cloud networking behind strict NATs/firewalls.
