The CC point is more about the data and environmental and general configuration context, not compute and where it happens to run today. The cloud setups are clunky because of context and UIUX user in the loop considerations, not because of compute considerations.
Agree with the GP, though -- you ought to make that clearer. It really reads like you're saying that CC runs locally, which is confusing since you obviously know better.
I think we need to shift our mindset on what an agent is. The LLM is a brain in a vat connected far away. The agent sits on your device, as a mech suit for that brain, and can pretty much do damn near anything on that machine. It's there, with you. The same way any desktop software is.
Yeah, I made some edits to clarify.
