Trail of Bits open-sources Coop, isolated VM environments for running Claude Code and Codex
aggrrrh · hn · 2026-09-07
- Security firm Trail of Bits released Coop, an open-source tool that provides isolated VM environments for running coding agents like Claude Code and Codex.
- The idea is to sandbox agent execution in disposable VMs so agents never touch the host's filesystem and credentials directly, reducing risks like accidental file deletion or data exfiltration.
- Available on GitHub (trailofbits/coop), useful for developers who want autonomous coding agents without giving up a security boundary.
