stagewise vs codeg
Coding agent workspaces compared
stagewise combines a coding agent with app previews, browser debugging context, and Git workflows in a TypeScript-based IDE. codeg coordinates multiple coding agents through ACP, with shared sessions, code changes, and access across desktop, self-hosted server, Docker, and mobile.
stagewise: Build and Orchestrate Coding Agents in an IDE
stagewise is a TypeScript-based agentic IDE that brings a coding agent, app previews, and Git workflows into one workspace. It supports your own model-provider keys and connects the agent to a browser tab’s console and debugger.
codeg: Coordinate AI Coding Agents with Agent Client Protocol
Codeg is a collaborative workspace for running and coordinating AI coding agents through the Agent Client Protocol. It brings agent conversations, sessions, code changes, and tasks into one experience across desktop, self-hosted server, Docker, and mobile.

Key differences
- stagewise focuses on building and orchestrating agents alongside a site, including browser console and debugger context; codeg focuses on coordinating different agents and their conversations, tasks, and changes.
- stagewise is written in TypeScript and uses the AGPL-3.0 license; codeg is written in Rust and uses the Apache-2.0 license.
- stagewise supports app previews, temporary test changes, website inspection, and permanent edits to a connected codebase; codeg offers agent delegation, parallel work in isolated Git worktrees, and session history tools.
- stagewise brings previews and Git workflows into an IDE; codeg offers desktop, self-hosted server, Docker, iOS, and Android access, plus a CLI and messaging integrations.
- stagewise development includes contributors beyond its leading contributor; codeg contribution is highly concentrated in one person, a continuity risk for its feature-rich application.
- stagewise requires Node.js 22.12.0 or later for building or developing from source; codeg's reported runtime requirement is Node.js, and it also offers Docker and Compose.
Choose stagewise if you…
- want browser console and debugger context alongside a coding agent and app previews.
- need to inspect a website's components and styling or try temporary changes before editing a codebase.
- prefer an IDE workflow with your own provider credentials, including custom providers or local inference.
Choose codeg if you…
- want to coordinate multiple coding agents, share session histories, and delegate parallel work.
- need access through desktop, a self-hosted server, Docker, or mobile, or want a CLI for scripts and CI.
- prefer the Apache-2.0 license or need repository workflows across GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, and Forgejo.
