ADE ships cross-machine agent screen control
ADE rolled out cross-machine agent orchestration, enabling an agent running on Windows to interact directly with macOS or Linux screens and terminals. The update also extends remote build timeouts up to 18 minutes for iOS tasks and introduces automatic work-copy cleanup upon turn completion.
Siloing coding agents inside a single local OS has long crippled cross-platform mobile and systems development; letting agents hop across host machines turns disparate dev boxes into a unified fleet.
- –Cross-platform execution: Agents running on Windows or Linux can execute GUI actions, inspect desktop apps, or drive mobile simulators on remote Macs via temporary work copies.
- –Timeout extensions: Remote command timeouts expand from 3 minutes to 18 minutes for iOS builds and 2 hours for test suites, eliminating false-positive failures during slow compilations.
- –Ephemeral scratch environments: Developers can dispatch quick, repo-free remote diagnostic tasks (like querying GPU status) that cleanly self-delete once finished.
- –Turn-scoped resource management: Claims on remote displays and background emulators release cleanly at turn completion, preventing abandoned background processes from hogging hardware.
