## What it is
Codel is a self-hosted, fully autonomous AI agent that executes complex tasks using a sandboxed Docker environment with terminal, browser, and editor access. It supports OpenAI and locally hosted Ollama models and stores command history in PostgreSQL.

## Use cases
- automate coding tasks with an autonomous ai agent
- self-hosted devin alternative
- let an llm run terminal commands in a sandbox
- ai agent that browses the web and edits files
- run autonomous agents with local ollama models
- delegate multi-step projects to an ai bot

## When to choose
- you want an open-source autonomous coding agent you can self-host
- you need sandboxed Docker execution for safety
- you want to use local models via Ollama instead of paid APIs

## When to avoid
- you need a production-grade, mature agent platform
- you cannot expose the Docker socket or run containers
- you only need a simple chatbot without task execution

## Facets
