Sentry CEO David Cramer explains a thorny agent-infrastructure problem: reading data from a child process running in its own sandbox is 'extremely complicated and expensive.'

What he actually needs is a shared filesystem from children to parent. He notes it's technically solvable but can't be bolted on retroactively — you'd want clustering at minimum, and a hacky NFS-mount workaround would 'suck but be functional.'
