Work on code

Before you start

• Repository access and the project's tools
• A coding agent and its required account or API key

Allow for agent/model costs separately from the computer subscription. Check the agent's current prerequisites in its official guide.

1. Open the computer

When your computer is running, choose Open computer. It opens the desktop in your browser tab. Open Terminal there to install tools.

2. Install and connect your agent

Codex is an example option for this task. Follow its official installation and account setup on Ubuntu. Enable any browser, search, or file tools needed by your task. Cubicles does not install it for you.

Confirm that the agent responds to a simple request before connecting additional services.

3. Try this first task

Inspect this repository and suggest a small documentation improvement. Make the change on a new branch, run the relevant checks, and summarise the diff. Do not merge or deploy it.

Start with documentation. Review the diff and checks before merging.

4. Check the result and continuity

Find the saved output and inspect it. Then configure a persistent process using your agent's current instructions, close only the browser view, and reconnect to check the same workspace. Do not stop the computer during that test.

If it does not work

Check installation errors, model authentication, tool availability, and the working directory. Use the official project's troubleshooting resources. A ticked checklist does not confirm agent health.
