Standardized dev environments, and two notebooks that get conflated.
Template updates don't retroactively change a running workstation.
Agent Platform Workbench
Renamed Vertex AI Workbench — general ML development
BigQuery notebook
In-place analysis, no separate compute provisioned
Best practice: build a Workstation's container image from the same base image CI uses. That shared lineage is the actual mechanism that eliminates "works on my machine" drift.
