What timing. I used the whole weekend building a CI agentic workflow where I can let CC run wild with skip-permissions in isolated vms while working async on a gitea repo. I leave the CC instance with a decent sized mission and it will iterate until CI is green and then create a PR for me to merge. I'm moving from talking synchronously to one Clade Code to manage a small group of collaborating Claudes.

How much does it cost you?

I do it similarly and it only costs me my working time. I do some of these things outside my official working times for free, but that is because I like the topic and like to have a good deployment pipeline. But I doubt it is in any way more significant time investment than administration of Github.

In the end you need to write your deployments scripts yourself anyway, which takes the most time. Otherwise for installation, the most time consuming task is probably ssh key management of your users, if you don't have any fitting infrastructure.

I mean, agents don't run for free for any significant time. Tokens cost money.

[raxxorraxor]

I meant the CI agents, not AI agents. These are just runners that execute the stuff that needs to be done for deployment/testing or general CI. These rarely call AI agents because these tasks need to be deterministic. If so, you probably want to call a local model under your control running on your own compute power.

Crazy times.
