- Signing Up - Create your account
- API Keys - Manage authentication
- Managed SSH Public Keys - Add, verify, rotate, expire, and revoke public keys for direct SSH
Devboxes (recommended)
Devboxes are programmable cloud development environments for humans and CLI agents:
- Getting started - Create, automate, and share devboxes via API or dashboard
- Development - VSCode/Cursor + tmux automation for CLI agents
- Prototyping - Preview URLs for web apps/APIs + persistent VPS mode
- Sharing & collaboration - Share live devboxes via URL inside your org
Actions
Morph Actions brings GitHub Actions onto Morph Cloud:
- Getting started - Use the web UI to connect the GitHub App, migrate workflows, dispatch runs, and inspect logs plus CI analytics
EFS (Ephemeral File System)
Morph EFS provides Morph-managed ephemeral filesystems you can mount into a supported Linux host and use through ordinary file operations:
- Getting started - Create, mount, use, and delete an EFS filesystem from the Morph CLI
- Concepts - Filesystems, mounts, shared mounts, and lifecycle
VM primitives (instances + snapshots)
Instances and snapshots are the underlying infrastructure primitives. They’re great for power users who want fine-grained VM control (e.g. RL environments, test-time scaling, bespoke orchestration).
Snapshot Management
Learn what snapshots do and how to set them up:
- Basic Operations - Create, take, and delete snapshots
- Snapshot Setup - Advanced initial snapshot creation
Instance Management
Learn what Morph Cloud instances are and how to use them:
- Introduction - Create, start, and stop instances
- Pause & Resume - Temporarily stop instances
- Branching - Create branches from instances
- Metadata - Work with instance metadata
- SSH - Connect via SSH
- Command Execution - Run remote commands
- File Management - Upload and download files
- Running FUSE on MorphVMs - Verify support, install packages, and test a working FUSE mount
- HTTP Services - Expose HTTP services
