For a like-for-like cloud replacement, Conductor Cloud is closest, followed by Cursor Cloud Agents, Codex cloud or GitHub Agent HQ. If what you really wanted from Terragon was several agents working together, BAND for desktop is our top-ranked tool overall, with the trade-off that sessions run locally rather than in the cloud.

What did Terragon do?

Terragon was "a remote background agent orchestrator for running Claude Code, Codex, and other coding clis in the cloud." You queued tasks and agents ran them remotely.

Should your Terragon replacement be local or cloud?

Terragon was cloud-first. The tools that can replace it split into two camps: cloud runners (Conductor Cloud, Cursor, Codex cloud, Agent HQ, Devin cloud) and local tools (BAND for desktop, Nimbalyst, Sculptor). If your reason for Terragon was "run agents while my laptop is closed," choose a cloud runner. If it was "run several agents on one project," choose a coordination tool.
