exe.dev

The exe.dev connector adapts an existing exe.dev VM into Flue’s sandbox interface using SSH for commands and SFTP for files. Because it depends on Node.js APIs and ssh2, use it with the Node target rather than a Cloudflare Worker target.

Add the connector

pnpm exec flue add exedev

Requirements

Requirement	Value
Target	Node.js
Package	ssh2
Remote resource	An existing exe.dev VM reachable by SSH
Authentication	SSH configuration; optional provider API credentials when your application manages VM lifecycle

Choose this connector when

Use exe.dev when a Node-hosted Flue application should operate inside a VM you reach through SSH/SFTP. The connector recipe includes optional lifecycle helpers, but the sandbox adapter itself is designed around a VM your application owns.

Treat SSH keys and provider tokens as server-side secrets. Decide whether agent instances share or allocate VMs, and clean up application-owned VMs according to your retention policy.
