Dev sandbox and self-hosted CI on a VPS

Docker, Forgejo and runners on a throwaway KVM. Nested virt. About a minute after the crypto invoice confirms.

Short answer

Rent a VPS, install Docker and Forgejo from their docs, and destroy the box when the job is done. We do not keep the disk after you delete.

Four flags, one checkout. Iceland, Netherlands, Romania, Switzerland. Crypto only.

What people actually run

Docker docs plus Forgejo (or GitHub-compatible runners) is the usual lab. Nested virt is on. Pay with USDT so CI spend is boring.

Playbook

From invoice to a runner
  1. Starter for a toy. Plus / Business for runners. Dedicated if steal shows up.
  2. Install from Docker docs and Forgejo.
  3. Amsterdam if the team is EU. Delete the VM when finished.

Limits

Do not mine on shared KVM as a business. Do not scan the internet from a sandbox we can attribute.

Custom ISO?

Yes.

KYC for CI?

No.

Primary sources

Pay with Bitcoin, Monero or USDT
