badphilosopher · x · 2026-09-16
E2B renamed its open-source project to E2B Runtime: the full backend behind its AI agent cloud, including the control-plane API and Firecracker microVMs that resume from snapshots, run untrusted agent code, and pause when agents stop. Available for cloud, enterprise, or embedded use under Apache-2.0; old URLs redirect. The repo has 1.5k stars and 7,500+ commits.
