Learn how to run & manage coding agents with Coder, both alongside existing workspaces and for background task execution.
AI Coding Agents such as [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/agents-and-tools/claude-code/overview), [Goose](https://block.github.io/goose/), and [Aider](https://github.com/paul-gauthier/aider) are becoming increasingly popular for:
## Agents in the IDE
- Protyping web applications or landing pages
- Researching / onboarding to a codebase
- Assisting with lightweight refactors
- Writing tests and draft documentation
- Small, well-defined chores
Coder [integrates with IDEs](../user-guides/workspace-access/index.md) such as Cursor, Windsurf, and Zed that include built-in coding agents to work alongside developers. Additionally, template admins can [pre-install extensions](https://registry.coder.com/modules/coder/vscode-web) for agents such as GitHub Copilot and Roo Code.
With Coder, you can self-host AI agents in isolated development environments with proper context and tooling around your existing developer workflows. Whether you are a regulated enterprise or an individual developer, running AI agents at scale with Coder is much more productive and secure than running them locally.
These agents work well inside existing Coder workspaces as they can simply be enabled via an extension or are built-into the editor.

## Agents with Coder Tasks (Beta)
## Prerequisites
In cases where the IDE is secondary, such as protyping or long-running background jobs, agents like Claude Code or Aider are better for the job and new SaaS interfaces like [Devin](https://devin.ai) and [ChatGPT Codex](https://openai.com/index/introducing-codex/) are emerging.
Coder is free and open source for developers, with a [premium plan](https://coder.com/pricing) for enterprises. You can self-host a Coder deployment in your own cloud provider.
[Coder Tasks](./tasks.md) is a new interface inside Coder to run and manage coding agents with a chat-based UI. Unlike SaaS-based products, Coder Tasks is self-hosted (included in your Coder deployment) and allows you to run any terminal-based agent such as Claude Code or Codex's Open Source CLI.
- A [Coder deployment](../install/index.md) with v2.21.0 or later
- A Coder [template](../admin/templates/index.md) for your project(s).
- Access to at least one ML model (e.g. Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, OpenAI)
- Cloud Model Providers (AWS Bedrock, GCP Vertex AI, Azure OpenAI) are supported with some agents
- Self-hosted models (e.g. llama3) and AI proxies (OpenRouter) are supported with some agents
