About
An interactive Claude Code prompt that automatically sets up a hardened Ubuntu 24.04 VPS with security configurations including SSH hardening, fail2ban, UFW firewall, and optional Tailscale. Simply feed the prompt file to Claude Code and it walks you through the entire server setup process.

Fresh VPS instance on Hetzner → Fully configured Ubuntu 24.04 server

Configure fail2ban intrusion prevention
Server without intrusion protection → Active fail2ban service monitoring and blocking malicious access attempts
Set up UFW firewall rules
Server with default firewall settings → Configured UFW firewall with security rules
Install and configure Tailscale VPN
User selection for Tailscale setup → Working Tailscale VPN connection on the server

Why it made the leaderboard
Feed this prompt file to Claude Code and it walks you through standing up a hardened Ubuntu 24.04 VPS — SSH hardening, fail2ban, UFW, optional Tailscale — interactively, instead of you copy-pasting a wiki at midnight. Server setup as a guided conversation.
