I work at Ona (formerly Gitpod). Background agents from Stripe, Ramp, and Shopify are shipping real code in production, but they all depend on one thing: a fully automated, reproducible dev environment. No localhost, no local state, no "works on my machine."

The companies moving fastest right now have all done the boring work first: to standardize their dev environments. The agent harness is a thin layer on top.

Let us know what you think!
