Background agent cloud that runs TypeScript agents on hardware-isolated Linux microVMs, with secrets the agent never sees.

OpenComputer works by combining Agent as a TypeScript Function: Declare a model, tools and MCP servers inside one exported function and deploy it live with opencomputer deploy — the platform owns the agent loop, sessions, streaming and versions., Full Linux MicroVM Per Session: Each run gets a real machine with bash, a read-write filesystem, apt/npm/pip package installs and full network egress, isolated at the hardware level via KVM., Durable Steerable Sessions: Runs stream to the client, accept mid-run steering, hibernate automatically when idle and resume exactly where they left off instead of restarting., Origin-Bound Secret Injection: Secrets are defined per connection and injected only after a request leaves the sandbox, so the agent can act with a token it can never read or exfiltrate., Checkpoint and Fork: Named snapshots work like git branches for VMs — fork a prepared machine to try five approaches in parallel, or restore one at any time. to help users with Codebase Hygiene Bots: Deploy an agent that finds stale feature flags still referenced in code and opens a cleanup pull request for each one on a weekday schedule., Background Coding Agents: Hand off long refactors or migrations to an agent that clones the repo, runs the test suite in a real shell and works while you sleep., Media and Data Pipelines: Run agents that need heavyweight binaries such as ffmpeg or headless Chromium, which serverless function runtimes cannot host., Parallel Approach Exploration: Checkpoint a machine once the environment is prepared, then fork it to evaluate several agent strategies from an identical starting state., Safe Third-Party API Automation: Let an agent operate on GitHub, Slack or an internal API through origin-bound credentials it is structurally unable to read or redirect..
