Building a local AI agent in Workshop on Ubuntu

Build a fully local AI coding agent on Ubuntu using Canonical Workshop and the Qwen3-Coder Inference Snap. In this step-by-step demo, you'll set up an isolated development environment, connect your coding agent to a locally hosted LLM, and run coding tasks without an internet connection. Follow along to recreate the setup on your own machine, using CPU or GPU inference.
