How teams run agents that need Docker, browsers, databases, or a GPU

The post asks how teams run agents that need a full machine: Docker, databases, browsers, multiple repos, system packages, or even a GPU.

It frames the real problem as environment orchestration, not just model choice, and describes a setup that launches a fresh machine, runs the job, returns logs and files, caps spend, and then destroys the machine. The author is asking what others use in practice: local machines, custom VMs, or services like E2B.
