I mentioned the same in another comment but then this dawned on me. They don't need to copy the entire model, just save their place i.e. write the whole content and what to do next to a file. Then copy that file to another server, install the agent (like claudecode), authenticate, and prompt "pick up where you left off". The only catch is the authenticate step, maybe it finds a way.
