About
MacRun rents dedicated M6 Mac mini machines with Claude Code and Codex preinstalled so coding agents can run unattended 24/7. Users sign in with their own Claude or ChatGPT plan, reach a full desktop through the browser, and dispatch tasks from a phone, with sleep disabled and wired ethernet keeping the machine always reachable.
At a glance
MacRun rents a dedicated Mac with Claude Code and Codex ready for sign-in. It is worth comparing if you need a Mac to keep running agent tasks while your own computer is off and you want to reach the desktop from a browser.
Good fit
Developers who need an always-on macOS environment and can put their agent login and project on rented hardware.
Consider something else when
Skip it if you only need brief access or your policy requires source and credentials to stay on machines you administer.
Start here
Before renting, check that your workflow needs macOS and that remote access fits it. If you proceed, start with a scratch repo and confirm that you can reconnect after closing the browser and inspect the agent’s progress.
Cost and requirements
The agent Mac page advertises a monthly rental. Claude Code or Codex uses your own account and plan, which is separate from the machine rental.
Limits to know
Your files and signed-in sessions live on a machine operated by the provider. The provider says the hardware is dedicated and wiped between customers. Check its access and offboarding terms before moving real work there.

MacRun rents a dedicated, always-on Mac mini with Claude Code and Codex pre-installed, letting you keep a coding agent running on your own codebase around the clock and drive it from your phone via a browser desktop.
