The web page doesn't do it justice. This looks really well thought out, and seems to surpass Rui Carmo's piclaw.

Spend 5 mins watching the first 5 videos on the announcement thread or github README:

https://github.com/lucasmeijer/AgentsInTheCloud/

The things that make me excited to try it:

- really nice isolation between workspaces (a docker container per workspace, and defaulting to no network comms between workspaces)

- each workspace can use whichever coding agent you want

- nice web UX which improves coding agents' own UI (not only the markdown view of agent output, but also the side panel with web browser, VS code, terminal)

Yeah, it's so good I was seriously considering stopping maintaining piclaw and moving to it. But the... contribution policy isn't there (one PRs and Twitter discussions didn't go anywhere) and my dream of maintaining _less_ stuff didn't pan out... I don't want to fork it and fall down the rabbit hole of still maintaining something, so I will just slow down piclaw maintenance to monthly releases (minus hot fixes and bugs, of course) and see how that goes.

At least that way I can automate deployments and have extensions for each agent (and working networking, as well)
