Cloud Agent
Remote / delegated agent
An agent that runs in a vendor or self-hosted remote environment — cloud sandbox, VM, or CI — rather than only on your laptop. You delegate a task and review output later.
Concrete example
Kick off “add rate limiting to the API”; an hour later you review a branch or PR created in the cloud.
Why it matters
Useful when work can proceed without you watching every step.
