Bump, this is really a deal breaker in comparison to cursor cloud. Remote controlled “on my computer” agents are great, but sometimes I still really need cloud when internet is spotty, when my Mac isn’t on, or for performance !

Thanks for explaining the integration-testing need! Cloud environments support setup scripts for dependencies: [https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/environments/cloud-environment](https://learn.chatgpt.com/docs/environments/cloud-environment). We’ll pass along the requests for running containerized services and using existing devcontainer setups in Codex cloud. We don’t have a timeline to share.
