Danny Kopping 7a94a683c4 docs: rename AI Bridge to AI Gateway and Agent Boundaries to Agent Firewall (#24094)
*Disclaimer: implemented by a Coder Agent using Claude Opus 4.6*

## Summary

Renames product references across documentation:

| Old Name | New Name |

| AI Bridge | AI Gateway |
| AI Bridge Proxy | AI Gateway Proxy |
| Agent Boundaries | Agent Firewall |

## What changed

- Prose text, headings, titles, and descriptions updated across all docs
- Directories renamed:
  - `docs/ai-coder/ai-bridge/` → `docs/ai-coder/ai-gateway/`
- `docs/ai-coder/ai-bridge/ai-bridge-proxy/` →
`docs/ai-coder/ai-gateway/ai-gateway-proxy/`
  - `docs/ai-coder/agent-boundaries/` → `docs/ai-coder/agent-firewall/`
- All internal markdown links updated to new paths
- `manifest.json` route paths updated
- Rename notice added to AI Gateway and Agent Firewall entrypoint pages

## Companion PR

URL redirects (old paths → new paths):
[coder/coder.com#700](https://github.com/coder/coder.com/pull/700)

## What is intentionally NOT changed

- **Env vars**: `CODER_AIBRIDGE_*`
- **CLI flags**: `--aibridge-*`
- **API paths**: `/api/v2/aibridge/*`
- **Config keys**: `aibridge:` YAML blocks
- **Terraform variables**: `enable_aibridge`, `boundary_version`,
`use_boundary_directly`
- **Process names**: `aibridged`, `aibridgeproxyd`
- **Prometheus metrics**: `coder_aibridged_*`, `coder_aibridgeproxyd_*`
- **SDK types**: `codersdk.AIBridge*`
- **GitHub URLs**: `github.com/coder/aibridge`
- **Image paths**: `images/aibridge/`
- **Auto-generated reference docs**: `docs/reference/cli/aibridge*.md`,
`docs/reference/api/aibridge.md`, `docs/reference/api/schemas.md`

Code-level renames (env vars, configs, frontend) are planned for a
follow-up PR.

Run AI Coding Agents in Coder

Learn how to run & manage coding agents with Coder, both alongside existing workspaces and for background task execution.

Agents in the IDE

Coder integrates with IDEs such as Cursor, Windsurf, and Zed that include built-in coding agents to work alongside developers. Additionally, template admins can pre-install extensions for agents such as GitHub Copilot and Roo Code.

These agents work well inside existing Coder workspaces as they can simply be enabled via an extension or are built-into the editor.

Agents with Coder Tasks

In cases where the IDE is secondary, such as prototyping or long-running background jobs, agents like Claude Code or Aider are better for the job and new SaaS interfaces like Devin and ChatGPT Codex are emerging.

Coder Tasks is an interface inside Coder to run and manage coding agents with a chat-based UI. Unlike SaaS-based products, Coder Tasks is self-hosted (included in your Coder deployment) and allows you to run any terminal-based agent such as Claude Code or Codex's Open Source CLI.

Secure Your Workflows with Agent Firewall

AI agents can be powerful teammates, but must be treated as untrusted and unpredictable interns as opposed to tools. Without the right controls, they can go rogue.

Agent Firewall is a new tool that offers process-level safeguards that detect and prevent destructive actions. Unlike traditional mitigation methods like firewalls, service meshes, and RBAC systems, Agent Firewall is an agent-aware, centralized control point that can either be embedded in the same secure Coder Workspaces that enterprises already trust, or used through an open source CLI.
