A local agent places the execution layer on the user's own computer; after command parsing it directly calls the local file system and operating system interfaces, so data need not leave the machine, but limited by local compute it usually relies on an external LLM API for semantic understanding.

UnverifiedA local agent runs on the user's own computer and can directly operate local files, invoke local software, and access intranet resources, but the user must install the runtime environment, configure permissions, and bear the security risks.79% similarUnverifiedA Local Agent directly operates on the developer's own file system, whereas a Cloud Agent runs on a remote virtual machine with a complete operating system environment, an independent file system, and a network stack.71% similarUnverifiedA single LLM call typically does not involve external tools, whereas an Agent Loop can actively invoke external tools such as file systems, databases, and various APIs.71% similarUnverifiedDesktop agents run directly at the user's operating system level, capable of manipulating local files and applications without relying on a remote server's sandbox70% similarUnverifiedThe prerequisite for WorkBuddy to be able to operate local files is that the user has granted default permissions; after authorization it can access specified directories, find DOC/DOCX files and call system tools to complete format conversion; the Agent runs in the user's local environment, directly operating files and the command line, which is fundamentally different from purely cloud-based large model services.68% similar
