Codex and Claude Code can write the software a chariot runs, or coordinate chariots as they write, test, and improve their own tools. Chariot ships that work onto the right image instances, equips each machine with context and credentials.

Every Chariot runs in its own private VPS. Keep small Chariots cheap, give general Chariots room, and reserve larger instances for heavier Hermes and OpenClaw runs.
