Help me set up Matrix OS, my own cloud dev computer.

Steps:
1. Install the CLI: npm install -g @finnaai/matrix or brew install finnaai/tap/matrix.
2. Run matrix login --profile cloud. It opens a browser/device login that I will approve.
3. If no Matrix instance exists, tell me to sign up at https://app.matrix-os.com, then re-run login.
4. Verify with matrix doctor and matrix whoami.
5. Start my preferred coding agent inside Matrix with matrix run -it --session setup -- claude or matrix run -it --session setup -- codex. I will complete that tool's own login inside the remote terminal.

Do not scan my local machine for credentials or upload secret files. Everything authenticates through its own browser/device flow.

Matrix recipes

Give your agent a job.

Start with a useful task. See what to ask, what comes back, and what you review.

Research a market

Turn a question and a list of competitors into a brief you can make a decision from.

Use this recipe

Copy the brief, add your inputs, and run it with your agent. These previews use illustrative data.

Your task

Compare the three products in my notes. Where could our onboarding be simpler?

Matrix agent · example response

I’ve organized your notes into a comparison brief. Setup steps are the clearest difference. Two pricing details still need verification.

Your review step

Check the sources and assumptions before acting on the recommendation.

From a task to something you can use. Three steps.

01

Download and open Matrix Desktop

Create an account or sign in from the app. A secure browser window handles account, plan, and Checkout, then returns you to Desktop.

02

Give your agent a clear job

Use a Matrix recipe or describe your own task. Add the files and connect the tools your chosen agent needs.

03

Review the result

Open the report, inspect the files, or review the code. Give feedback in the same workspace and keep the work moving.

Hermes

The resident agent for everything around the code

Coding agents build software. Hermes runs the operating system around them: tool connections, scheduled workflows, notifications, approvals, memory, and everyday actions.

Explore Hermes

Build workflows

Turn recurring product, support, finance, and engineering work into Matrix workflows that run on schedule.

Connect your tools

Work across GitHub, Linear, Slack, Discord, Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Sentry, Datadog, billing, and Matrix apps.

Ship apps and automations

Create internal tools, dashboards, trackers, reports, and app workflows in the same Matrix workspace.

Install once. Then ask your agent naturally.

Matrix publishes three focused skills for setup, observable cloud work, and safe GitHub projects. Install them for your coding agents with one Matrix-owned command.

Choose the right setup for your organization. Start with Matrix Cloud, or bring your own Linux VPS.

Recommended

Managed Matrix Cloud

  • Choose region and power during signup
  • Managed routing, auth, updates, backups, billing, and integrations
  • Hermes and coding agents keep running while devices sleep
  • Best path for teams, pilots, professionals, and daily work

Run your VPS

Manual VPS install

  • Install from the main domain on your own Linux VPS
  • Browser shell, gateway, local Postgres, code-server, and systemd services
  • Works from a server IP for first boot; bring DNS and TLS for public use
  • You own backups, upgrades, integrations, and server security
  • Best path for hackers, open-source users, and custom infrastructure

Questions, answered.

What can I do with Matrix?

Give AI agents a private cloud workspace for research, reports, recurring tasks, and software development. Open the files, apps, browser, and terminals alongside the agents doing the work. Available actions depend on the agent and tools you connect.

What are Matrix recipes?

Reusable task briefs with the inputs, instructions, expected result, and review boundaries for a job. Start by copying a recipe into your agent and supplying the requested inputs. One-click installation in the web app and desktop app is planned.

Will my agents work when I close my laptop?

Builder and Max provide always-on computers for scheduled and background work. Starter sleeps when inactive and does not include scheduled or always-running agents. Agent usage limits and connected service availability still apply.

Which agents can I use?

Bring Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Pi, Gemini CLI, and terminal agents. Matrix also hosts Matrix-native agents like Hermes and OpenClaw-style assistants for workflows and connected tools.

What is Symphony?

Symphony is the Matrix orchestration layer for autonomous coding: parallel sessions, task queues, terminal runs, previews, PR review, and handoff between agents and humans.

What is Hermes?

Hermes is the Matrix-native agent for workflows and connected tools. It can work across GitHub, Linear, Slack, Gmail, Calendar, Drive, billing, settings, and Matrix apps with your permission.

What happens to my data?

Your files live in your Matrix home and workspace data lives in your Matrix database. Matrix is built around owner-controlled data, exportability, and isolated hosted computers.

What does it cost?

Hosted plans are $20/month for Starter, $100/month for Builder, and $200/month for Max. Your first primary Matrix computer can start with a 3-day free trial. A card is required, you pay $0 today, and Stripe automatically charges the selected monthly price when the 3-day trial ends unless you cancel first. The offer is once per Matrix account; additional computers bill immediately. Enterprises can contact us for a custom plan.

What will your team hand off first?

Start with a research brief, a weekly report, or a bug fix. Book a walkthrough to explore how Matrix fits your team’s work, or download and try it yourself.
