Confident_Garden_420 · reddit · 2026-09-13
An engineer published a detailed comparison of sandbox options for giving agents a computer: managed services like E2B and Vercel versus cloud-native setups like AWS MicroVMs, plus lessons from his company's in-house sandbox system. The article maps which approach makes sense at different stages — individual prototyping, consumer products, or enterprise agent deployments — noting that modern agents increasingly rely on CLI tools, skills, Bash, and a filesystem as workloads grow complex.
