Running local agents in an isolated VM with open-webui and open-terminal
g1ccross · reddit · 2026-09-23
A Linux veteran shares a local agent setup: open-terminal runs inside an isolated VM, giving the LLM full control of that sandbox while keeping the home network safe, with open-webui letting him monitor and shut things down from his phone.
He runs Qwen 3 27B at Q8 with full context on 64GB VRAM and reports it capable enough for real tasks. He invites others to share similar sandboxed agent configurations and pitfalls.
