Editors & IDEs
Every workspace comes with a full editor in the browser, nothing to install. Prefer your own setup? Point Cursor, VS Code, or a JetBrains IDE at the very same machine over SSH. Same files, same shell, same dependencies, whichever one you pick.
The built-in browser IDE
Open a workspace and a complete VS Code loads in your browser, already attached to the cloud machine. There is nothing to download or configure, and it works the same from any computer you sign in on.
-
Full editor
Syntax highlighting, IntelliSense, extensions, and your favourite keybindings. It is the VS Code you already know.
-
Integrated terminal
A real shell on the cloud machine, right in the editor. Run builds, tests, and tools where the code lives.
-
Port forwarding
Start a dev server on the box and open it in your browser through a forwarded port. No extra setup.
-
Source control
Stage, commit, branch, and push from the built-in Git panel against the repo cloned into the workspace.
Bring your own editor
One opt-in command, runcode config-ssh, writes a
reversible block to your ~/.ssh/config so your own
desktop tools reach each workspace as runcode.<name>.
The short-lived key refreshes on every connect, so nothing goes stale. Full setup and the
security model are in Connect over SSH.
Cursor →
Open the workspace as a remote SSH host and let Cursor’s AI work against the full cloud machine.
VS Code Remote-SSH →
Attach desktop VS Code to the workspace; extensions and the terminal run on the remote box.
JetBrains Gateway →
Connect IntelliJ, PyCharm, GoLand, and the rest of the JetBrains IDEs over SSH.
git, ssh, scp, rsync →
Plain command-line tools reach the box through one reversible ~/.ssh/config block.
Coding agents
Codex and Claude Code connect through the RunCode agent plugin, so an agent can run commands and tests directly on the workspace instead of your laptop.
No workspace yet? Start one and the browser IDE opens in seconds. Then connect any of the editors above to it.
