Archal — Stateful simulated environments
Spin up environments for GitHub, Slack, Stripe, Linear, Supabase, Datadog, HubSpot, Jira and more that persist mutations during a run and reset to a declared baseline on demand.
Call environments through familiar REST paths and payloads or through MCP tools, so existing agent code and tool definitions work with minimal changes.
A single API key creates and manages every sandbox and environment, with shared gateway routing while each environment keeps its own endpoint and readiness state.
Combine every environment a workflow needs into one sandbox, giving each its own readiness state and endpoint so end-to-end agent flows can be tested together.
The AI coding agent for building ambitious software
An agentic mode that plans changes, edits several files at once, runs tests, and iterates until the task is complete.
Background agents spin up their own environments to build, test, and demo features in parallel, then hand back results for review.
Fast inline suggestions plus codebase-wide semantic search and indexing so answers reflect your actual repository.
Switch between leading frontier models from multiple providers, or let Cursor select a model automatically for each task.
Provides powerful parallel AI coding agents via a desktop command center, but is less integrated into a traditional editor.
