# Should coding agents be allowed to touch infrastructure? > Source: > Published: 2026-09-03 08:48:58+00:00 ## Build with your preferred agent Catalyst integrates with the tools developers already use for agentic coding. Connect your assistant, keep your workflow, ship faster. Use the agent that fits your workflow while Catalyst provides infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and backend services out of the box. ### Bring your agent. Keep your flow. Catalyst exposes structured skills, deployment primitives, and typed APIs so your agent understands what to build, where to run it, and how to ship it. Native plugins for Codex, Claude, Gemini, Cursor, and Kiro Typed catalyst.* skills for scaffold, deploy, migrate, rollback Secure MCP endpoints for tool-use and data access Preview environments per commit — agent-safe by default ## A cloud your agent can actually operate ### Prompt-driven workflows Describe what you want in natural language. Your agent generates services, APIs, and UI directly on Catalyst. ### Full-stack by default Backend, database, auth, serverless functions, storage, and hosting — available out of the box. ### Agent-native architecture Structured APIs, deployment primitives, and automation interfaces designed for agents to reason about. ### Production-ready infrastructure Deploy securely, scale automatically, and manage environments without leaving the platform. ## Everything your agent needs to become a productive cloud developer. ### Catalyst Agent Skills Make your agents Catalyst-proficient with platform-aware capabilities for scaffolding, deployment, and service orchestration. ### Connect to MCP Give your agents secure backend access and automation abilities through the Model Context Protocol. ## Ship vibe coded apps on Catalyst. Prompt it, preview it, deploy it. No boilerplate, no YAML — just the app. ## From internal tools to customer-facing AI Catalyst supports the entire application spectrum — one platform, one workflow. ### Custom front-ends React, Vue, Angular, or any framework your agent prefers. ### AI-powered apps Add LLMs, embeddings, and intelligent workflows. ### Dashboards Ship analytics and operational interfaces in minutes. ### Integration layers Connect SaaS tools, databases, and enterprise systems. ### Microservices Serverless APIs and event-driven services with built-in scaling. ### Internal tools Admin panels, approvals, and automation portals — fast. ## From prompt to production A simple workflow that works for both developers and agents. ### Describe Tell your agent what you want to build. ### Generate The agent creates services, APIs, and UI. ### Deploy Catalyst provisions and publishes your app. ### Iterate Refine through more prompts and commits. ## You don't have to choose. Catalyst supports both workflows simultaneously, so teams can collaborate with AI agents instead of working around them. | Developers | Agents | |---|---| | Write code manually | Generate code from prompts | | Use your favorite framework | Use structured Catalyst skills | | Debug and customize deeply | Automate repetitive tasks | | Control architecture decisions | Execute deployment workflows | | Ship production applications | Accelerate delivery at scale | ## Start building with agents today. Connect your preferred AI coding assistant, enable Catalyst Agent Skills, and go from idea to deployed app in minutes — not days.
