THE SHORT VERSION

A good fit when…

Builders exploring an environment designed around coding agents.

Before you choose

The environment is not the underlying agent or model. Check supported CLI versions and operating systems.

What you’ll need

A supported system and separately configured compatible agent CLIs.

YOUR OWN CHECK, NOT OUR TEST RESULTS

Try one real task before switching

A generic checklist to run yourself. Use a small, reversible trial and non-sensitive sample data.

  1. Define one task and write down what a useful result would look like.
  2. Confirm the selected edition, total cost, setup owner, and required connections in the official documentation.
  3. Run the same task in your current setup and the candidate. Record missing steps, manual work, and errors.
  4. Check how you would export or remove your trial data and return to your current setup.
  5. Keep, test further, or stop. Do not migrate until your must-have requirements are confirmed.

Where your information goes

Data handling depends on the environment, agent, and model provider together.
