AI-Generated Code Needs Sandboxes: From Linux Namespaces to microVMs
Abhishekcur · x · 2026-10-11
Running AI-generated code with full access to files, network, and system is risky. The author walks through sandboxing as the solution, covering the Linux isolation stack: namespaces, cgroups, seccomp, containers, VMs, and microVMs.
Key insight: isolation isn't just about keeping processes apart—it's about restricting capabilities. His advice: don't just read about sandboxes, actually play with Linux isolation primitives and build your own to understand how to safely execute untrusted code.
