How are you enabling your employees to do AI dev in the cloud?

Sure, us engineers can Claude Code up a storm locally on our laptops these days. But now with everyone trying to vibe code everything, there's quite a few people that don't have a "proper" local dev environment to do that same kind of development. Let's just take running a test suite. Our devs need a pretty beefy environment to run that.

So ideally, these environments are just in the cloud. But Claude Code web, is so "environment lite" that it really isn't a substitute. Or are you all having Claude Code web install a bunch of dependancies and even API keys to do things there?

I've got a system of VMs that get deployed now that I'm encouraging folks use, because Claude can just use those cloud VMs directly to work on code, run tests and things without a full slow CI workflow. But it seems so fragile.

What are you all using to power up employees at your company with dev environments something like Claude can use without those employees actually having local dev environments?
