exe.dev

Goal: Mayros Gateway running on an exe.dev VM, reachable from your laptop via: https://<vm-name>.exe.xyz

This page assumes exe.dev's default exeuntu image. If you picked a different distro, map packages accordingly.

Beginner quick path

  1. https://exe.new/mayros
  2. Fill in your auth key/token as needed
  3. Click on "Agent" next to your VM, and wait...
  4. ???
  5. Profit

What you need

  • exe.dev account
  • ssh exe.dev access to exe.dev virtual machines (optional)

Automated Install with Shelley

Shelley, exe.dev's agent, can install Mayros instantly with our prompt. The prompt used is as below:

Set up Mayros (https://apilium.com/us/doc/maryos/install) on this VM. Use the non-interactive and accept-risk flags for mayros onboarding. Add the supplied auth or token as needed. Configure nginx to forward from the default port 18789 to the root location on the default enabled site config, making sure to enable Websocket support. Pairing is done by "mayros devices list" and "mayros device approve <request id>". Make sure the dashboard shows that Mayros's health is OK. exe.dev handles forwarding from port 8000 to port 80/443 and HTTPS for us, so the final "reachable" should be <vm-name>.exe.xyz, without port specification.

Manual installation

1) Create the VM

From your device:

bash
ssh exe.dev new

Then connect:

bash
ssh <vm-name>.exe.xyz

Tip: keep this VM stateful. Mayros stores state under ~/.mayros/ and ~/.mayros/workspace/.

2) Install prerequisites (on the VM)

bash
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y git curl jq ca-certificates openssl

3) Install Mayros

Run the Mayros install script:

bash
curl -fsSL https://maryos.apilium.com/install.sh | bash

4) Setup nginx to proxy Mayros to port 8000

Edit /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default with

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server;
    listen 8000;
    listen [::]:8000;

    server_name _;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:18789;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;

        # WebSocket support
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";

        # Standard proxy headers
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

        # Timeout settings for long-lived connections
        proxy_read_timeout 86400s;
        proxy_send_timeout 86400s;
    }
}

5) Access Mayros and grant privileges

Access https://<vm-name>.exe.xyz/ (see the Control UI output from onboarding). If it prompts for auth, paste the token from gateway.auth.token on the VM (retrieve with mayros config get gateway.auth.token, or generate one with mayros doctor --generate-gateway-token). Approve devices with mayros devices list and mayros devices approve <requestId>. When in doubt, use Shelley from your browser!

Remote Access

Remote access is handled by exe.dev's authentication. By default, HTTP traffic from port 8000 is forwarded to https://<vm-name>.exe.xyz with email auth.

Updating

bash
npm i -g mayros@latest
mayros doctor
mayros gateway restart
mayros health
