What can it do?
Section titled “What can it do?”Minion provides two main capabilities.
1. Minion provisioning and management
Section titled “1. Minion provisioning and management”Easily provision VPS servers and create Claude Code agents (minions). Each minion runs in an isolated environment with its own browser, terminal, and file system.
- One-click provisioning — Create minions from the HQ dashboard
- Web terminal / VNC — Operate minions directly from your browser
- Cloudflare Tunnel — Automatically builds secure network connections
2. Task management with skills and workflows
Section titled “2. Task management with skills and workflows”Combine reusable prompts (skills) into pipelines and run them automatically on cron schedules.
- Skills — Version-controlled prompt templates
