    How is this different from docker sbx or microsandbox.dev? Not saying we don't need more alternatives, just asking to see if there is a reason to switch.

      Docker sandbox is proprietary.

        I _think_ (disclaimer: I have only read the documention of the two tools) they overlap quite a bit. The main idea is to get VM isolation for your agents env.

        Oh awesome, I just started building something like this but nice to use something off the shelf for once.

        I used a project called toolgate to autoapprove "safe" tool calls but request permission on riskier calls declaratively. But there's so many unnecessary tool permission requests

          I use coop daily and found it super convenient for my use case (ie letting agents go on with no access to my other projects or personal files)

          I would recommend anyone that has desire to provide stricter boundaries to agents to give it a try - while remembering that a motivated agent would probably be able to escape it :)

            Personally I am using Eclipse Enclave to sandbox my agents. Good to see another fully open source solution in Coop.

              sidenote: coop is also a large swedish grocery chain, pronounced the same way :)

                not only in Sweden, in Germany and Switzerland as well. I guess it has the same origins in the trade unionist purchasing cooperatives at the turn of the century from the 19th to the 20th
