Eight ideas, two pairs of hands
A small studio has more ideas than hours. Every prototype needs a scaffold, a build and a first playable version before anyone can judge it.
On two laptops that means two agents at a time, and both stop the moment someone closes the lid for a call.
A studio morning
- 09:00
Brief eight tabs
Each idea gets an empty project and a tab: a genre, a mechanic, a template to start from. Claude Code opens in every one.
- 09:20
Back to design and players
The founders design and talk to players. The agents build, and the Terminals list shows which tab is working and which needs a decision.
- 12:30
Play the prototypes
Each prototype runs on its own port, so each has its own preview link. The second founder plays them side by side and picks two worth a week.

Next batch
Delete the projects that lost, brief new ones, go to lunch.
A two-person studio with eight builders
Eight builders for $169
Max runs eight terminals at once, and its 8 vCPU and 16 GB carry eight agents and their dev servers.
Every prototype is a link
Each dev server gets its own HTTPS preview URL, private until you make it public for a tester.
Nobody babysits a laptop
The agents run on detachbox. Calls, lunch and closed lids leave them working.
One list, eight agents
Terminals mode shows which tab is working, which is done and which needs a decision.

Questions about this
Can two people work on one Compute?
No. A Compute belongs to one account. The second founder plays prototypes through public preview links, or signs up for a Compute of their own.
How many agents run at once?
Your size decides: 3 on Start, 5 on Pro, 8 on Max, 10 on Business, 15 on Business Plus, 20 on Business Max, 30 on Business Ultra, each terminal running an agent or a plain shell. Projects are $0 extra, so make as many as you have ideas.
Does each prototype need its own setup to preview?
No. Start its dev server on its own port, bound to 0.0.0.0, and it answers at https://<port>-<terminal id>.detachbox.dev, the address of the terminal that runs it.
