ShipCode Local is the local-first coding environment in the Shipyard suite. It is designed for direct project editing with AI assistance, visible diffs, review controls, terminal access, and provider flexibility.

Use Local when

You need local control

Keep changes, terminal commands, and review loops inside the project on your machine.

You are iterating fast

Use AI composition and slash commands while staying close to the code and test feedback.

You need precise review

Inspect diffs, undo or redo changes, and review proposed edits before keeping them.

You use custom providers

Work with MCP and multiple provider options when your workflow needs more context sources.
ShipCode Local and ShipCode Cloud are complementary. Use Cloud for delegated remote runs and Local for hands-on development.
