Recommended VPS Starting Point

For most first deployments, choose our Starter VPS.

This starting point gives Paperclip room for practical server work: company state, adapter processes, heartbeat schedules, dashboard access, audit trails, package builds, runtime processes, dependency caches, repositories, logs, and configuration files. Pick the location closest to the user, agent endpoints, API provider, or team where practical, then scale when sustained CPU, RAM, storage, or process count requires it.

Included starter specs: 3 CPU cores, 6 GB RAM, 50 GB NVMe disk space, Unlimited bandwidth*, 1 free snapshot, 1 backup included, IPv4 + IPv6, Full root access.

Need more power?

Move up a plan once sustained builds, agent runs, logs, dependencies, or concurrent processes begin to exceed the starter resources.

What Is Paperclip VPS Hosting?

Paperclip VPS hosting is a self-managed Virtarix server for running Paperclip and the supporting services you configure. Virtarix does not supply agent identities, provider accounts, model access, or Paperclip operations; you own the stack above the VPS.

This page keeps the offer focused on infrastructure rather than bundled AI software. For Paperclip, the operator remains responsible for agent coordination, adapters, heartbeats, dashboards, provider access, credentials, updates, and runtime behavior.

Why Run Paperclip on a VPS?

A multi-agent control plane benefits from a central runtime where services, adapters, logs, state, and repository checkouts remain available. The VPS can be tuned as agent count and background tasks change.

Local installs are useful for early testing, but they are not ideal when the workload needs continuous runtime, stable remote access, and server-side logs. With Paperclip on a Virtarix VPS, company state, agent adapters, heartbeat schedules, dashboards, audit trails, and server logs stay in a remote environment that can be reached, monitored, restarted, and updated over SSH.

Paperclip VPS vs Local Workstation

Decision area Local workstation Paperclip VPS
Always-on runtime

Local workstation depends on local power, network, and user-session state.

Paperclip VPS can keep services, queues, logs, and runtime state available when the local workstation is offline.
Isolation boundary

Local workstation often shares personal files, browser sessions, and unrelated development tools.

Paperclip VPS gives the workload a separate server boundary with SSH users, firewall rules, and scoped access.
Logs and state

Local workstation can scatter state across temporary folders, terminals, and local-only history.

Paperclip VPS keeps logs, repositories, generated files, caches, and recovery notes in one remote place.
Team or device access

Local workstation is usually tied to one user, one device, and one desktop environment.

Paperclip VPS can be reached from approved devices over SSH and documented for handoff.
Rollback and recovery

Local workstation relies more on manual local backups and can be harder to reproduce cleanly.

Paperclip VPS can use snapshots, backups, service restarts, and rebuild notes before major changes.

Customer Reviews

The cost is the most exciting thing

The cost is the most exciting thing. Great value. The reliability was phenomenal. Ease of maintenance and simplicity of use also makes this a home run.

Cheap, easy, quick.

Virtarix is exceptionally cheap, easy-to-use, and quick to get started with. Would highly recommend!

Workload Benefits

Central orchestration host

Place the Paperclip server, UI, adapters, and supporting services on a single remote runtime.

Resource headroom for multiple agents

Multi-agent work can need more CPU and RAM as adapters, queues, and jobs increase.

Server-side logs and run state

Keep heartbeat output, errors, task evidence, and configuration in a durable VPS environment.

Root access for service composition

Manage Node.js, databases, reverse proxies, process supervisors, and firewall rules directly.

Measured scaling path

Start with a practical VPS and scale after observed heartbeat frequency, adapter count, dashboard usage, and stored run history justify more resources.

Common Use Cases

Paperclip is most useful when the VPS is the control plane for multiple agents, tasks, budgets, approvals, and execution logs.

01

Multi-agent company orchestration

Use Paperclip to define companies, goals, roles, org charts, reporting lines, and delegated work across multiple agents. Good for: teams experimenting with structured agent teams or company-style multi-agent coordination models.

02

Scheduled heartbeat execution

Run agents on scheduled heartbeats so they wake up, check work, act, and persist session context across runs; add event-triggered workflows only where the documented adapter or integration path supports them. Good for: reviewed support triage, internal reports, content workflow drafts, maintenance tasks, and long-running delegated work where human oversight remains part of the process.

03

Budget and cost governance

Use Paperclip’s documented budget and cost controls to monitor agent work by company, agent, project, goal, issue, provider, or model, with warning thresholds or stopping rules where the installed version supports them. Good for: operators who want autonomous-agent experiments with reviewable spend boundaries.

04

Task system and audit trail

Keep issues, blockers, comments, documents, work products, run logs, status, and approvals in one dashboard. Good for: teams that need reviewable work instead of scattered terminal sessions.

05

Adapter-based agent runtime management

Coordinate documented local CLI/session adapters, OpenClaw bots, shell commands, Python scripts, HTTP/webhook agents, or custom adapters from one control plane. Good for: teams with several agent tools that need shared governance, context, and supervision without implying every runtime is first-class by default.

What to Plan Before You Deploy Paperclip

Use the VPS as an operating boundary for Paperclip. Before you install or expose the workload, decide what must keep running, what it may access, how logs are reviewed, and how you will roll back changes.

Define whether Paperclip needs continuous runtime, clean restarts, and remote access independent of a local machine.

Assign one clear owner for the server, credentials, repositories, restart process, and backup routine.

Plan where repositories, generated files, transcripts, caches, runtime state, and logs will live.

Rotate noisy logs and temporary files before they turn the VPS into an unbounded workspace.

Use snapshots before major framework, dependency, provider, or policy changes.

Use scoped API keys, least-privilege repository access, and separate human SSH access where practical.

Document inbound ports, webhooks, outbound providers, model APIs, and firewall rules before enabling them.

Start with low-risk tasks and add production-impacting access only after review.

Use the checklist above to choose the deployment mode before exposing the dashboard, connecting agents, or enabling any remote access path.

Choose a Paperclip Deployment Mode

After the deployment risks are defined, choose how Paperclip should be started, accessed, and protected on the VPS. The right mode depends on whether the setup is a quick first proof, a source-development workspace, a loopback-only private session, or an authenticated deployment with tighter access controls.

npx quickstart

Best for a first VPS proof where onboarding creates the local control-plane setup.

Repository development mode

Best for contributors or teams that need pnpm-based source development.

Trusted local mode

Best for loopback-only solo operation through SSH tunneling or another private access path, not for direct public VPS exposure.

Authenticated private mode

Best for LAN or tailnet deployments, or internet-reachable deployments that require authentication, tighter access checks, and careful exposure review.

These operating patterns help keep the Paperclip runtime reviewable while giving the VPS a clear path from first local-style test to authenticated private operation. With the operating pattern defined, choose a VPS size that leaves enough room for the first safe deployment.

Security and Reliability Basics

Treat the Paperclip runtime as a privileged server process. Security and reliability should be part of the setup, not a later cleanup task.

Use SSH keys where possible.

Restrict open ports.

Store API credentials in environment variables or a secure secret-management process.

Run only the services needed for Paperclip coordination, adapter processes, heartbeat execution, dashboard access, and audit logs.

Avoid committing .env files.

Monitor logs.

Keep packages updated.

Snapshot before major changes.

Rotate exposed keys.

Keep experiments separate from production systems.

Privileged runtime

The server can contain agent adapters, heartbeats, company state, UI/API services, credentials, and run logs. Harden it before production use.
