About Amp

Amp is a frontier coding agent and development environment whose agents work in 'orbs' - cloud workspaces where your app runs with live reloading, so you can send one prompt, close your laptop, and review changes later from any device through portals. Orbs wake on outside events like a new Linear issue or failing CI build, support multiplayer sessions where a team shares control of the same agent and code, and include a shared terminal into the running environment.
