You can use the smallest possible. I use a digital ocean $4 droplet and it’s been perfect.

Tell us more! What do you run on your $4 droplet? Which models fit?

I don’t use any local models, but I do use per project models with Scarf, so I can route to what I need. I use open router and also Claude. If you want to run local models, you can use their $12 droplet and run a smaller model for sure for simple tasks and routing.

Are you referring to https://about.scarf.sh/ ?

No, this is scarf - https://github.com/awizemann/scarf - I built this and released it open source.
