SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Local agent execution suffers from resource contention, inconsistent environments, and single-user constraints. This Skill provides architectural guidance for running coding agents in remote sandboxed environments with fast session startup and collaborative workflows. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Sandbox Infrastructure Patterns: Pre-built environment images on a 30-minute cadence, filesystem snapshots, warm pools, and predictive warm-up so sandboxes are ready before users finish typing. - Self-Spawning Agents: Tools and prompt engineering patterns that let agents spawn sub-sessions for parallel research, cross-repository work, and splitting large changes into smaller PRs. - Multiplayer and Multi-Client Architecture: Per-session state isolation, WebSocket streaming, and synchronization across Slack, web, Chrome extensions, and VS Code clients. - Use Case: A platform team building a background coding agent uses this Skill to design the image registry, warm pool strategy, GitHub token-based commit attribution, and Slack integration for team adoption. ## Quick Start Use the hosted-agents skill to design the sandbox infrastructure and warm pool strategy for a background coding agent that opens PRs on behalf of users.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a background coding agent that runs in the cloud?

Run agents in remote sandboxed environments with three layers: sandbox infrastructure for isolated execution, an API layer for state management, and client interfaces for user interaction. Pre-build environment images on a regular cadence so sessions start quickly.

How to speed up sandbox startup for coding agents?

Pre-build environment images every 30 minutes with dependencies installed and caches populated. Maintain a warm pool of ready sandboxes and start warming a sandbox as soon as the user begins typing their prompt.

Can coding agents spawn sub-agents for parallel work?

Yes, provide tools that let agents start new sessions, check session status, and continue main work while sub-sessions run in parallel. This supports cross-repository research and splitting large changes into smaller PRs.

How do I attribute git commits from background agents to users?

Use GitHub app installation tokens for repository access during clone, then update git config user.name and user.email at commit time. Attribute commits and PRs to the prompting user, not the app identity.

What metrics should I track for a hosted coding agent?

Track sessions resulting in merged PRs as the primary success metric. Also monitor time from session start to first model response, PR approval rate, and percentage of agent-written code across repositories.
