UNDER THE HOOD
How Cloud Agents work
Isolated containers, automatic git management, and ephemeral environments
Isolated containers
Each user gets an isolated Linux container with common dev tools preinstalled — Node.js, git, gh CLI, glab CLI, and more. Install additional packages with apt.
Automatic branch management
When a session begins, your repo is cloned, a unique branch is created, startup commands run, and env vars are injected. Every message auto-commits and pushes changes.
Ephemeral by design
Containers spin down after inactivity and spin back up when needed. Inactive sessions are deleted after 7 days, but remain accessible via CLI.
Shared container instance
All Cloud Agent chats share a single container instance while each session gets its own workspace directory, keeping your work organized and isolated.
EASY SETUP
Get started in minutes
Four simple steps to AI-powered cloud development
Connect GitHub or GitLab
Link your account via the Integrations tab so that Cloud Agents can access your repositories. One-click setup for GitHub and GitLab.
Select a repository
Choose the repository you want to work with. Cloud Agents will clone it into an isolated container and create a unique branch for your session.
Configure your environment
Add environment variables, secrets, and optional startup commands to shape your workspace. Use Agent Environment Profiles to save and reuse configurations.
Start chatting with Kilo
Begin coding with Kilo in the cloud. Your work is automatically committed and pushed to GitHub after every message — nothing is ever lost.
POWERFUL FEATURES
Built for real workflows
Environment profiles, webhooks, skills, and seamless session portability
Agent Environment Profiles
Reusable bundles of environment variables, secrets, and setup commands. Profiles can be owned by users or organizations, making it easy for teams to share standard configurations.
Secrets & Environment Variables
Add key/value pairs or encrypted secrets that are injected into the container before the session starts. Perfect for API keys and config flags.
Startup Commands
Commands that run immediately after cloning the repo — ideal for installing dependencies, bootstrapping tooling, or running setup scripts.
Webhook Triggers
Initiate Cloud Agent sessions via HTTP requests. Integrate with external services and automation workflows using customizable prompt templates.
Skills Support
Project-level skills stored in .kilocode/skills/ are automatically available when your repo is cloned, giving the agent specialized knowledge about your project.
Session Portability
Sessions are restorable locally and local sessions can be resumed in Cloud Agent, giving you seamless flexibility between environments.
PERFECT FOR
What Cloud Agents are great for
From remote debugging to automated refactors
Remote Debugging
Use Kilo debug mode to diagnose issues without touching your local machine.
Codebase Exploration
Explore unfamiliar codebases from anywhere — let the agent navigate and explain the code for you.
Architect-Mode Brainstorming
Use architect mode to design and plan while on the go, with full access to your repository.
Automated Refactors
Offload tech debt cleanup, batch updates, and large-scale refactors to run autonomously in the cloud.
All-In-One Platform
Kilo is more than cloud agents
An all-in-one AI coding platform that works everywhere you code
Trusted by developers at the world's most innovative companies
