Foundry Local is the operator/self-hosted distribution. Foundry Cloud is the hosted multi-tenant SaaS with subscription, gateway, USDC billing, and x402 agent payments. Both speak the same engine surface; they are complementary, not exclusive.

Install the native Foundry Admin app for local gateway control, token setup, BYOK rotation, and operations. Operator-facing, not customer-facing.
Use Foundry from the terminal for serve, doctor, status, deploy, and operator TUI workflows. Scriptable and reproducible.
A local web console for non-Cloud installs. Single-tenant, operator-bound. Foundry Cloud's console is the multi-tenant customer surface and lives here.
