Reviewer scorecard
“Long-running jobs up to 24 hours solve the AI agent execution problem. The v3 architecture is built for modern workloads.”
“Fastest editor I've ever used. Native performance, real-time collab, and the AI integration is well-designed.”
“v3 addresses the key limitation — jobs that need to run for hours, not just seconds. Essential for AI agent tasks.”
“Fast but the extension ecosystem is small compared to VS Code. You'll miss plugins you depend on.”
“Long-running, durable background jobs are the infrastructure AI agents need. Trigger.dev v3 delivers exactly this.”
“The next-gen editor built for AI and collaboration. Rust performance advantage over Electron is real.”
