Background Agents, now generally available
Run agents in parallel, in the cloud, on isolated branches. Kick them off from the editor, Slack, Linear or GitHub — and review a finished PR when they're done.
- Background Agents are GA on Pro, Ultra, Teams and Enterprise.
- Start an agent from any Slack thread with @isotris, or by assigning a Linear issue.
- Agents run on isolated git worktrees with their own dev containers.
- Live agent timeline: see every file read, command run and test result.
- Agents now self-verify with your CI config before opening a PR.
- Cold start for cloud agents is 3× faster.
- Terminal output could truncate on very long test runs.
- Rare crash when closing a workspace mid-index.
