    Software & access

    3 included
    • Run AI agents, compatible runtimes, and your own MCP servers on your VPS. These workloads use your plan’s included CPU, memory, and storage; connect your own APIs and tools.
    • No plan-imposed cap on API connections for your agents and tools. Provider rate limits, account permissions, and available server resources still apply.
    • Administrator access on Windows or root access on Linux lets you install compatible runtimes, tools, and services, and manage your server settings.

    Network & protection

    4 included
    • Your server has its own IP address for remote access and for services that support IP allowlisting.
    • Always-on DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) protection with advanced traffic filtering, plus firewalls and intrusion detection.
    • Server protection complements network DDoS filtering. You should still keep your operating system and tools updated and protect your account and API credentials; no protection eliminates every security risk.
    • Traffic is not billed per gigabyte. Connection speed depends on your plan and location; unmetered bandwidth does not mean unlimited network speed.

Codex VPS FAQ.

OpenAI's open-source terminal-based coding agent. Codex CLI lets you write, refactor, and debug code from the command line using OpenAI models. Run it on a VPS for always-on AI development. A VPS keeps the environment available independently of your local computer.

Choose Ubuntu 24.04 and connect through SSH to install Codex. You have root access to configure its dependencies and services.

Size CPU, memory and storage around your concurrent tasks, repositories and data. Running a local model also depends on that model's requirements. Compare VPS resources and pricing.

The VPS supplies the server and operating system. Configure your own Codex installation, model access and any required software subscriptions; those third-party charges are separate.

Configure Codex's long-running processes through a service manager or persistent terminal session. Closing an ordinary SSH shell does not by itself guarantee that a process stays running.

Yes, if the server has enough resources for the combined workloads and their dependencies. Browse the supported AI tools.

No. API-key usage is billed at OpenAI API rates, separately from plan credits.
