Ways to compare

What matters

Coding agents sit in different places. Some are local and interactive. Some are cloud workers. Some act more like reviewers than committers.

Surface

Terminal, IDE, browser, desktop app, GitHub issue, or cloud task.

Authority

Can it edit files, run commands, push branches, or only suggest changes?

Context

Repo files, issue history, docs, tools, memories, and team instructions.

Models

Default model, selectable models, provider choice, BYOK, and local model support.

Review

Diffs, logs, tests, permissions, and human approval before merge.
