 ### Is there a benefit to using a node on my personal laptop instead of SSH from a VPS?
 
 Yes — nodes are the first‑class way to reach your laptop from a remote Gateway, and they
-unlock more than shell access. The Gateway runs on macOS/Linux (Windows via WSL2), so a common
-setup is an always‑on host (VPS/home box/Pi) plus your laptop as a node.

 - **No inbound SSH required.** Nodes connect out to the Gateway WebSocket and use device pairing.
 - **Safer execution controls.** `system.run` is gated by node allowlists/approvals on that laptop.
