Access a web-based terminal on your servers and run Claude Code directly in your app's directory.
Web Console
Every app has a Console link in its sidebar. Clicking it opens a web terminal connected to your server, starting in your app's deploy directory (/var/www/your-app/current).
From the console you can:
- Run Rails console:
bundle exec rails console - Check logs:
journalctl -u your-app-puma -n 100 --no-pager - Run database migrations:
bundle exec rails db:migrate - Inspect files and processes on the server
Running Claude Code
Claude Code is pre-installed on all Ship It Squirrel servers. To start it, open the Console and type:
claudeClaude Code will start in your app's directory with full access to your codebase. You can ask it to fix bugs, review code, run tests, and more.
Tip: For the best experience, you can also SSH into your server directly and run claude from your local terminal.
Connect with: ssh deploy@your-server-ip
