Barge
Cloud runner for coding agents
- Linear
- Claude Code
- Codex
- Cloud workers
Hand off coding work from Linear or a local checkout to a disposable cloud worker. Barge runs the coding agent, returns a draft pull request for review, and keeps a live session dashboard available after your laptop disconnects.
Problem
Active coding work is tied to a local machine. When a laptop needs to disconnect, continuing that work elsewhere means carrying over repository state, instructions, and enough context for another agent to pick up safely.
Approach
Start a handoff from a Linear issue or from the current local checkout. Barge packages the repository state or starts from a GitHub ref, then runs the coding agent in a disposable cloud worker. The session stays available in a browser while the worker runs.
Barge returns a draft pull request for review. Its public repository contains the installable skills, plugin manifests, wrapper scripts, and CLI installer. The application is developed in a separate private repository.
Outcome
The worker can keep going after the local machine disconnects, then return its changes as a draft pull request with a live session dashboard for follow-up.
Architecture
The public getbarge/barge repository distributes skills and the barge CLI. The CLI prepares repository state or selects a GitHub ref, connects the coding agent to a cloud worker, and links the resulting session and draft pull request. The service backend is maintained separately. Barge works with leading coding-agent harnesses and is in invite-only beta.
