Doing this with an agent? Paste this page into Claude Code or Codex as context - every command is copy-paste and self-contained, so the agent can run the switch end to end.
How the platforms map
Move your state
Orgo runs any shell command inside the computer viaPOST /computers/{id}/bash, so the cleanest transfer is to pull your data in from inside the machine - no size limits, no laptop round-trip.
Recommended - via a Git repo. Push the state you want to keep to a private repo, then clone it inside the Orgo computer:
- Any URL. Host the tarball anywhere reachable and
curl/wgetit from inside the VM the same way - a Git repo is just the tidiest, versioned option. - Small files (< 10 MB).
POST /files/uploaddrops a file straight onto the desktop. It caps at 10 MB - for larger state use the Git or URL pull above, or split into < 10 MB batches.
Set up on Orgo
One call provisions the computer; then install your software with the same/bash endpoint.
bash, exec, screenshot, click/type).
What’s different
Neutral, both directions:- Fly does, Orgo doesn’t: general-purpose compute/PaaS - arbitrary long-running services, public inbound via Anycast shared/dedicated IPs, multi-region deployments, and opt-in persistence via Volumes (a Machine’s base filesystem is ephemeral).
- Orgo does, Fly doesn’t out of the box: a persistent GUI desktop with a built-in agent-control API (screenshot / click / type), sub-second boot, and nothing to administer - no OS, firewall, or TLS to manage.
