Everpod SDK for Python

The official Python client for the Everpod API.

Everpod is an easy way to get your own always-on, persistent cloud computer for AI agents, working in minutes: with a managed OpenClaw agent on it, or as a developer pod with Claude Code and Codex installed. A key lets an agent or an app you trust see your pods and start a new one for you, which you then pay for on everpod.ai. It can't pay, change or cancel a plan, delete anything, or open your agent's control panel.

If you are connecting an agent such as Claude Code or Codex, you do not need this library: point it at Everpod's MCP server, as the API reference shows.

Install

pip install everpod-ai

Python 3.9 or later. No dependencies.

Use

To make a key, open everpod.ai/account/keys and sign in with your email address and the code we send you. If you have no account yet, signing in makes one. Give the key to the library from an environment variable.

import os

from everpod_ai import Everpod

everpod = Everpod(os.environ["EVERPOD_API_KEY"])

# Start an OpenClaw pod under the name you want for its agent. Nothing is
# charged: the pod stays unpaid until you open pay_url in a browser and pay there.
pod = everpod.start_pod("Otto")
print(pod["status"], pod["pay_url"])

# Or a developer pod: the machine's name, and your username on it.
machine = everpod.start_pod("atlas", kind="developer", login="alex")

# The pods on your account, oldest first.
pods = everpod.list_pods()

# One pod by its id: how to check whether it has been paid for, and whether it is ready.
same = everpod.get_pod(pod["id"])

While your account has an unpaid pod, starting another returns that same pod, changed to the name and kind now asked for.

A pod's fields and what each status means are in the API reference.

When a request is refused

A refusal raises an EverpodError. Its message is the API's own sentence, which says what happened and what to do next; code and status are the refusal's.

from everpod_ai import EverpodError

try:
    everpod.get_pod(pod_id)
except EverpodError as error:
    print(error.code, error.status, error.message)
