**Category:** General

Native dev container integration? Is there built-in dev container support alongside worktree sessions? I had to set one up locally and manually tell the agent to operate inside it. This seems like a natural fit, especially with cloud sessions. Let me know if I missed it.

Research direction

No implementation file or test is named. Start by inspecting how worktree sessions, cloud sessions, and the agent are currently handled, then clarify the intended built-in dev-container behavior and how support would be verified across those session types.
