Agents & collaboration
Private runtimes and cloud execution
Connect a private device for agent execution and understand availability, project access and harness compatibility.

Choose where tasks run
Cloud execution suits tasks that should not depend on a maintained local process. A private runtime is useful when execution needs your own device environment, such as a local project. It does not imply local model inference: model calls still use the configured API and incur usage.
Connect a device
- Open Team Agents → Private Runtimes, download the device client and follow the displayed startup steps.
- Confirm pairing in the browser and verify the device name and authorized projects. Keep pairing information private.
- Keep the client running and wait for its online status. Check that its supported harness matches the agent.
- Edit the agent to select the device, save and run a small task to confirm execution location and artifacts.
Offline devices and revocation
Sleep, network loss, a stopped client or changed project permissions can affect execution. Check device availability and the selectable-runtime list before investigating the model. Revoke devices no longer in use so they do not retain project access.
