Ah unfortunately not through the hosted product, but if you fork and build it you should be able to skip the sign-in

Fair pushback! The space will settle down eventually, it's just clear to a lot of people that there's a lot of value to be created in this space that hasn't been created yet :)

That's an interesting take! Basically Linux / a computer is everything you need to ship code.

If I could provide one gentle pushback - the same way there's utility in OMZ, lazyvim etc., there may be utility in us shipping our CLI etc. - there must exist some software we can build that'll be useful to you as well :)

So we also ship a cloud service along with Superset, which enables our Linear integration, Slack integration, and our multiplayer capabilities / remote workspaces.

When you sign in, you're signing into our cloud service!

So far we've been growing pretty healthily all things considered!

I think one thing to remember is that the other side of us having dozens of competitors is that if the space couldn't sustain more than 1-2 parallel agent companies, a lot fewer of us would exist. We also will have a lot of time to continue creating value for our customers in the future in new ways :)

Actually Cursor is starting to converge with us as we speak! You can look at their new agents mode (which is now their default for new users) as an example.

For what happens, in our heads the end goal is building a software factory where dozens to hundreds of agents are always running - something that nobody has nailed the experience for yet. Until that's a solved problem I hope we have room to grow and build!

On the docket! Right now the main thing we have enabled is the file system + terminals + ai agents through remote workspaces, but yes dev environments is definitely on the agenda :)

Ah actually we're unaffiliated!

That's fair! We do have more paid features (a slack integration, remote workspaces etc.) but yeah we haven't found the best balance for which tier to put each in for sure.

True yeah that would be a good feature! We took a peek at it in the past and it's not too bad, no promises on when it'll ship though

Yeah we have friends that have done the same! Definitely quick to build a custom CLI if you're willing to roll up your sleeves.

I do tend to like the niceties of our GUI tho, if you get a chance to compare your cli / our GUI would love to hear what you think!

No you're good, it's fair feedback! I think a fair description of where we're at is "if you use a cli agent for 90+% of your work, this is a drop-in terminal replacement that'll make it easier for you to run them in parallel". It definitely is dependent on you preferring a CLI agent like Claude Code, but for us since it's all we use the worktree management was a missing component!

YES their project is great, there's a lot in the planning space that would be extremely useful (grabbing your Circleback notes -> creating tickets, having playbooks like Devin in ticket form so you can choose what to build first, etc. etc.)

I'd need to do a refresher but for Cursor agents you can choose any model but you're tied to their tooling right? I've heard they're really solid I just find people have their cli preferences and being terminal-first let's anyone bring their favorite agent along for the ride

Yep, there's a set of tasks I never have to babysit anymore and it's very freeing. Our desktop builds are 15m sometimes, and instead of checking it and waiting I have Claude watch the job, download the build from GitHub when it's done, and then open it in finder so I get a little popup

Gives me 15 more minutes to work on another task!
