Description
Manage persistent VMs on exe.dev. Create VMs, configure HTTP proxies, share access, and set up custom domains. Use when working with exe.dev VMs for hosting, development, or running persistent services.

exe.dev VM Management
Quick Commands
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| List VMs | ssh exe.dev ls --json |
| Create VM | ssh exe.dev new |
| Make public | ssh exe.dev share set-public \x3Cvm> |
| Change port | ssh exe.dev share port \x3Cvm> \x3Cport> |
| Add user | ssh exe.dev share add \x3Cvm> \x3Cemail> |
| Share link | ssh exe.dev share add-link \x3Cvm> |
Access URLs
- VM:
https://\x3Cvmname>.exe.xyz/ - Shelley agent:
https://\x3Cvmname>.exe.xyz:9999/ - VSCode:
vscode://vscode-remote/ssh-remote+\x3Cvmname>.exe.xyz/home/exedev
Proxy Configuration
Default port is auto-selected from Dockerfile EXPOSE. Change with:
ssh exe.dev share port \x3Cvmname> \x3Cport>
Access ports 3000-9999 via https://vmname.exe.xyz:\x3Cport>/
Authentication Headers
When users authenticate via exe.dev:
X-ExeDev-UserID— user identifierX-ExeDev-Email— user email
For testing, use mitmproxy to inject headers:
mitmdump --mode reverse:http://localhost:8000 --listen-port 3000 \
--set modify_headers='/~q/X-ExeDev-Email/[email protected]'
Custom Domains
- Subdomains: CNAME
app.example.com→vmname.exe.xyz - Apex: ALIAS
example.com→exe.xyz+ CNAMEwww→vmname.exe.xyz
Full Reference
See references/exe-dev-vm-service.md for complete documentation including pricing, Shelley agent setup, SSH key config, and FAQ.
Usage Guidance
This is essentially an auto-built copy of exe.dev documentation — the package itself contains only docs and no code, installs, or credential requests. Before using: verify you're actually interacting with the real exe.dev service (check the SSH host key fingerprint against official sources), don't run unfamiliar SSH commands as root, and be careful with the mitmproxy example (it demonstrates header injection and can be used to spoof authentication for testing; avoid using it on production traffic). Also treat any VM marked 'public' or shared-links as potentially accessible to others, and verify pricing/billing details on the official site. If you need higher assurance, ask the publisher for the origin/homepage or test these commands in an isolated account/VM first.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: exe-dev
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle is classified as benign. All commands, primarily `ssh exe.dev ...`, are directly aligned with the stated purpose of managing persistent VMs on `exe.dev`. The inclusion of a `mitmdump` command is for local testing of authentication headers, a legitimate debugging utility, and does not indicate malicious intent. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence, prompt injection against the agent, or obfuscation. All actions are transparent and serve the described functionality.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description (managing exe.dev VMs) match the SKILL.md content: SSH commands, proxy rules, sharing, and custom domain instructions. The skill requests no binaries, env vars, or config paths beyond what the docs describe, which is proportionate for a documentation-only helper.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md is documentation-only and does not instruct the agent to read local secrets or system files. It does include a mitmproxy example showing how to inject headers for testing and notes that the Shelley agent reads ~/.config/shelley/AGENTS.md; these are documentation items (not code) but they are sensitive in that they describe mechanisms that can be used to spoof headers or access agent config files. The skill itself does not automate or advise reading host files or exfiltrating data, but users should be cautious when following the mitmproxy example or when exposing services that trust forwarded headers.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — lowest-risk delivery. Nothing is downloaded or written to disk by the skill bundle itself.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested. The documentation describes exe.dev adding authentication headers (X-ExeDev-UserID, X-ExeDev-Email) to proxied requests — this is a service behavior to be aware of but is appropriate context for a VM-management doc.
Persistence & Privilege
Skill is not always-enabled, contains no installation or persistent agent modifications, and does not request elevated/ongoing system privileges. Autonomous invocation is allowed (platform default) but the skill has no code to run autonomously.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install exe-dev - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/exe-dev - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
