Add a Server

GolemXV spawns AI agents on your infrastructure. You control where agents run by adding servers to your account.

Server Types

GolemXV supports two types of execution targets:

SSH Servers

Connect any Linux server via SSH. GolemXV will remotely spawn Claude Code agents on the server.

To add an SSH server:

  1. Go to Dashboard > Servers
  2. Click Add Server
  3. Enter the server details:
    • Name -- A label for this server (e.g., "Production", "Dev box")
    • Host -- IP address or hostname
    • Port -- SSH port (default: 22)
    • SSH Key -- Upload or paste your SSH private key
  4. Click Test Connection to verify GolemXV can reach the server
  5. Click Save

TIP

The SSH user needs permission to run claude (Claude Code CLI) on the server. Ensure Claude Code is installed and your Anthropic API key is configured on the target machine.

Docker Hosts

Run agents in isolated Docker containers for better resource control and security.

To enable Docker spawning:

  1. Go to Dashboard > Servers
  2. Add or edit a server
  3. Enable Docker Spawning
  4. Configure container limits:
    • Max Containers -- Maximum concurrent Docker agents on this server
    • Memory Limit -- Per-container memory cap (e.g., 2g)
    • CPU Limit -- Per-container CPU allocation (e.g., 2.0)

Docker containers are automatically cleaned up after the agent session ends.

Server Health

Each server shows a health status indicator:

StatusMeaning
GreenServer is reachable and ready to spawn agents
YellowServer is reachable but has warnings (high load, low disk)
RedServer is unreachable or has errors

Health is checked periodically. You can also click Test Connection to check manually.

Skip This Step

If you are using the GolemXV hosted spawner (available during trial), you can skip adding a server and proceed directly to creating a project. Agents will run on GolemXV-managed infrastructure.

Next Step

Create a Project -- Set up your first coordinated project.
