Durable Object virtual filesystem with container, shell and JavaScript runtimes for agents
marketing-team-eve-template
eve lead agent delegating to five marketing specialists with approval gates
Verdict
computer ranks higher, 58 to 55. Of the 5 score parts we measure for both, computer leads on 2, marketing-team-eve-template on 2 and 1 is even.

Pick computer if you are
Cloudflare developers building agents that need a persistent workspace
- One exec entry point across container, shell and JavaScript backends, which connect lazily
- SQLite in the Durable Object is the single authoritative store; isolate backends use Workers RPC with no sync
Pick marketing-team-eve-template if you are
Teams studying multi-agent delegation with real tool writes
- Approval matrix is enforced in connection tool lists, not only in prompts
- Each specialist is a directory; the lead routes on its description alone

computer
Cloudflare Computer keeps a workspace filesystem in a Durable Object's SQLite and exposes it through one `workspace.runtime.exec` call. Backends are a FUSE-mounted sandbox container (via the `computerd` daemon), a just-bash shell in a Dynamic Worker, or an ECMAScript module in a Dynamic Worker. The repo includes examples for agents built with pi, TanStack AI and `@cloudflare/think`, plus an MCP example. It is labeled preview only, with unstable APIs.
Who it is for: Cloudflare developers building agents that need a persistent workspace
Strengths
- One exec entry point across container, shell and JavaScript backends, which connect lazily
- SQLite in the Durable Object is the single authoritative store; isolate backends use Workers RPC with no sync
- Container backend gives a full Linux userland through a real FUSE mount
- Many runnable examples: pi, TanStack AI, Think, MCP, egress policies, Artifacts
Weaknesses
- README states preview only, unstable APIs, and not suitable for production
- Tied to Cloudflare Workers, Durable Objects and Dynamic Workers
- Docs under docs/ are a forward-looking spec, not a description of current code
- Unsolicited pull requests are not accepted
- TypeScript
- Needs Cloudflare Workers, Durable Objects, Dynamic Workers, Cloudflare Containers, just-bash
marketing-team-eve-template
An eve project where a lead agent briefs one of five specialists (product marketing, content, social, SEO, email) and returns their output as Notion pages, Typefully drafts or Resend campaigns through MCP connections. A shared brand context document in Vercel Blob is the only state, sends and scheduled publishes pause for approval in Slack or the terminal, and models come through Vercel AI Gateway. For teams studying multi-agent delegation.
Who it is for: Teams studying multi-agent delegation with real tool writes
Strengths
- Approval matrix is enforced in connection tool lists, not only in prompts
- Each specialist is a directory; the lead routes on its description alone
- Remote agents let a specialist live in its own deployment
- CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md and architecture docs included
Weaknesses
- Needs Notion, Resend and Slack connectors via Vercel Connect plus a Typefully key
- Tied to eve, Vercel AI Gateway, Blob and Sandbox
- No tests; pnpm validate covers lint and typecheck
- No .env.example
- TypeScript, eve, ai-gateway, ai-sdk
- Needs vercel-connect, notion, resend, slack, typefully-api-key, vercel-blob, ai-gateway
- GitHub template
