Hardening an AI Code Sandbox: Seccomp, Egress Firewalls, and gVisor

A locked-down container stops the obvious attacks. Here are the controls that stop a determined one: a non-root user, a tight seccomp profile, resource ulimits, a network egress allowlist, and a real kernel boundary with gVisor.

Give a Coding Agent a Persistent Sandbox: Clone, Edit, Test, PR

One-shot code execution can't build software. An autonomous coding agent needs a filesystem that survives across turns, to install dependencies, edit files, run the test suite, read the failures, and open a pull request. This builds that with a persistent E2B sandbox.

Lightweight AI Sandboxes with WebAssembly: Pyodide and QuickJS

When you can't run a container, serverless functions, the edge, cold-start-sensitive paths, you can still isolate untrusted code in-process with WebAssembly. This runs LLM-written Python via Pyodide and JavaScript via QuickJS, each with hard memory and time limits.

Why AI Agents Need Sandboxes (and How to Build One with Docker)

The moment you let an LLM run the code it writes, you've handed a stranger a shell on your server. Here's the threat model, and a step-by-step build of an isolated Docker sandbox your agent can safely execute code in.
