# Remote development location and control map

Locate the editor, repository and tool process before interpreting an AI control result.

Synthetic location markers and unexecuted checks. No SSH connection or container is created.

## A local window can reach different runtimes

### Local interface

The editor appears on the employee’s device

Note: This alone does not locate execution

### Remote host or container

Workspace files and tools may be located here

Note: Verify identity, mounts and permissions

### Model request

Trace the component that submits context

Note: Evaluate the supported path separately

| Location | Synthetic marker | Observed component |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Local test folder | SYNTHETIC_D19_LOCAL | Untested |
| Approved remote fixture | SYNTHETIC_D19_REMOTE | Untested |
| Approved container fixture | SYNTHETIC_D19_CONTAINER | Untested |

## Review checklist

- [ ] Locate data and execution separately
  Record where files live and where the selected extension or terminal actually runs.
- [ ] Assign the control to that path
  Do not infer remote coverage from a local device or browser result.
- [ ] Use only approved isolated marker locations
  Do not create remote access, copy a real repository or move credentials for this exercise.
