What it does
Where you use it
Amp offers Mac, experimental Windows and native Linux desktop apps, native phone apps, the web app and CLI. Linux includes a local systemd runner; individual client limitations remain scoped per question.
Source and scope for Where you use itAgents it runs
Amp supplies its own coding-agent harness across clients and builds prompts/tools around the selected model. Custom agent modes and subagents remain Amp agents; provider subscriptions or models are not third-party coding CLI integrations.
Source and scope for Agents it runsAccounts and subscriptions
The pricing guide supports linking ChatGPT and Claude subscriptions. BYOK is a separate inference route. Further scoped facts are recorded in the atomic answers.
Source and scope for Accounts and subscriptionsWhere agents run
The CLI can run Amp on the user's own machine. Users can supply their own Orb compute through amp orb provider and a dispatch program. Orb execution can be hosted on user infrastructure; this is not self-hosting the Amp control plane. Orbs are per-thread machines that continue working when the laptop closes. The size table lists per-Orb CPU, memory and 60 GB disk; default-size rules vary by project and plan.
Source and scope for Where agents runHow work is kept apart
Runner worktree creation also creates a named branch. A runner creates a Git worktree and branch for a new thread; worktrees separate files without asserting a security sandbox. A documented Docker provider example runs each Orb as a container; this is a self-hosted execution option. Each Orb thread has a fresh isolated working environment; the shared terminal uses the same filesystem as that thread's agent. Docker-backed Orbs do not preserve memory across pause; terminals and desktop processes are lost on wake. Each runner worktree has its own working files and branch.
Source and scope for How work is kept apartParallel work
The Orb guide describes several independent tasks running at once, each with its own environment.
Source and scope for Parallel workScheduled runs
Amp saves one schedule per thread; it can run once or repeat, with pause, resume and delete controls. GitHub events can wake existing threads or start new Orbs. Further scoped facts are recorded in the atomic answers.
Source and scope for Scheduled runsGit and pull requests
Push to Branch ships to a feature branch instead of the base branch. Default Ship commits uncommitted files before rebasing and pushing. Orbs can push branches and open PRs using a connected GitHub identity. Default Ship rebases on the latest base branch and repeats after a concurrent push. The agent resolves conflicts and asks the user before proceeding on substantive conflicts. A PR linked by thread URL or ID appears in the thread title bar with open, draft, queued, merged or closed status.
Source and scope for Git and pull requestsLicence and source
Amp access is covered by the limited, revocable service license in its custom terms. The hosted service is governed by Amp License Terms; an open-source server license was not established.
Source and scope for Licence and sourcePrice
Public tiers are Hobby free, Megawatt $20/month, Gigawatt $200/month, Teams at no additional workspace charge and custom Enterprise. Team members retain individual tiers; model/tool and Orb usage are separately metered.

amp:RUN-02: Runner worktree creation also creates a named branch. A runner creates a Git worktree and branch for a new thread; worktrees separate files without asserting a security sandbox. A documented Docker provider example runs each Orb as a container; this is a self-hosted execution option. Each Orb thread has a fresh isolated working environment; the shared terminal uses the same filesystem as that thread's agent. Docker-backed Orbs do not preserve memory across pause; terminals and desktop processes are lost on wake. Each runner worktree has its own working files and branch. cross-checked
