What the private beta needs
Node.js 22, Git, an invitation and a supported official coding tool. Provider usage is separate. Claude desktop support is not verified.
Routing requests use extracted task signals rather than raw prompts or source code. Your coding tool and provider still receive the context needed to do the work.
