Summary

Coder announced Agent Relay, infrastructure that runs cloud-hosted coding agents inside a customer's own self-hosted Coder workspaces instead of the agent vendor's cloud. Cursor is the first integration partner and SpaceXAI is the enterprise launch partner; the product is in private preview.

What changed

Agent Relay lets Cursor Cloud Agents execute inside self-hosted Coder workspaces on the customer's network. Cursor continues running the agent's reasoning loop (inference and planning) in its cloud, while source code, credentials, file access, and tool calls stay on customer-controlled machines. It launched in private preview with SpaceXAI as the design and launch partner.

Why it matters

Agent Relay opens cloud coding agents to banks, government agencies, and other regulated enterprises that could never send code or secrets to a vendor cloud. It reframes agent choice as compatible with governance, letting teams keep a hosted agent experience while retaining full control of execution and data residency.

Evidence excerpt

"Agent Relay gives enterprises a new way to run cloud-hosted coding agents inside secure, self-hosted Coder workspaces instead of the agent vendor's cloud." Cursor is the first integration partner; source code, credentials, and tool calls stay in the customer's Coder workspace while the agent's reasoning loop remains with the vendor.
