# Run AI Coding Agents in Coder
|
|
|
|
Learn how to run & manage coding agents with Coder, both alongside existing workspaces and for background task execution.
|
|
|
|
## Agents in the IDE
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
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)
|
|
|
|
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 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.
