# Early Access
|
||||
|
||||
Coder Agents is available through Early Access for the community
|
||||
to evaluate while the product is under active development.
|
||||
Participation comes with important expectations and limitations described
|
||||
below.
|
||||
|
||||
## What Early Access includes
|
||||
|
||||
Early Access is a collaborative evaluation period between Coder and
|
||||
participating customers. It includes:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Direct collaboration with the Coder product team** — work with Coder
|
||||
engineers and product managers to share feedback, discuss use cases, and
|
||||
influence product direction.
|
||||
- **Architecture and functionality documentation** — basic documentation
|
||||
covering how Coder Agents works and how it integrates into existing
|
||||
deployments.
|
||||
- **Feedback sessions** — periodic check-ins with the Coder team to discuss
|
||||
real-world usage.
|
||||
- **Early exposure to new capabilities** — access to new features or
|
||||
experimental functionality before public release.
|
||||
|
||||
## What Early Access does not include
|
||||
|
||||
Early Access is not a production-ready offering. It does not include:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Formal support coverage** — no SLA-backed support.
|
||||
- **Stability guarantees** — features and behavior may change without notice.
|
||||
- **Production readiness guarantees** — functionality may not yet meet the
|
||||
reliability or scalability expectations of a GA feature.
|
||||
- **Complete documentation or tooling** — operational guidance may be
|
||||
incomplete and will evolve.
|
||||
- **Long-term compatibility guarantees** — APIs, configuration models, or
|
||||
workflows may change before General Availability.
|
||||
|
||||
## Feature scope
|
||||
|
||||
Functionality available during Early Access may be a subset of planned
|
||||
capabilities. Some features may be incomplete, experimental, or subject to
|
||||
redesign.
|
||||
|
||||
## Set up Coder Agents
|
||||
|
||||
Coder Agents is available by default. No experiment flags are required.
|
||||
|
||||
To get started:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Navigate to the **Agents** page in the Coder dashboard.
|
||||
1. Open **Admin** settings and configure at least one LLM provider and model.
|
||||
See [Models](./models.md) for detailed setup instructions.
|
||||
1. Grant the **Coder Agents User** role to users who need to create chats.
|
||||
Go to **Admin** > **Users**, click the roles icon next to each user,
|
||||
and enable **Coder Agents User**.
|
||||
1. Developers can then start a new chat from the Agents page.
|
||||
|
||||
## Licensing and availability
|
||||
|
||||
Features provided during Early Access may become paid licensed
|
||||
features at General Availability.
|
||||
Participants will receive reasonable advance notice before:
|
||||
|
||||
- Coder Agents reaches General Availability
|
||||
- Early Access functionality transitions to a paid offering
|
||||
|
||||
## Providing feedback
|
||||
|
||||
Participants are encouraged to share workflow feedback, feature requests,
|
||||
performance observations, and operational challenges. Feedback channels are
|
||||
coordinated directly with the Coder product team.
