Current limits

The explicit boundaries of the current Amics remote-execution contract.

Amics currently provides single-node, bounded remote command execution.

It does not provide:

  • a locally attached CUDA device;
  • an SSH session or remote desktop;
  • a live filesystem mount;
  • automatic remote-to-local artifact synchronization;
  • multi-node command execution through amics run;
  • guaranteed uninterrupted Spot capacity;
  • automatic replay after an ambiguous outcome;
  • implicit forwarding of local credentials;
  • implicit persistent storage;
  • a production MCP server.

Use external storage or an explicitly attached durable workspace for data that must outlive compute. Download or upload artifacts explicitly when they must move between the local tree and the remote environment.

These boundaries are deliberate. They keep the command, spend, data lifecycle, and replay decision visible to both people and agents.
