From the Zed Blog: Run AI agents in parallel without interference using containerized environments and Git Worktrees.
The Heart of Spritely: Distributed Objects and Capability Security
This paper is the second in a three-part series outlining Spritely's thinking and design. The first paper, Spritely: New Foundations for Networked Communities, explains the problems which face contemporary social network design. This paper details the core technical toolbox provided by Spritely Goblins and how it supplies the necessary features to feasibly build out Spritely's broader vision. The third paper in the series, Spritely for Secure Applications and Communities, ties the first two papers together by showing how the architecture for user-facing software fulfills the vision of the first paper and can be built on top of ideas from this paper.
agentOS - Everything Agents Need to Run and Operate - Rivet
The complete platform for production AI agents. Stateful runtime, universal agent interface, and secure code execution. One SDK, one platform, deploy anywhere.

Blaxel: The Persistent Sandbox Platform | Near Instant Latency
Blaxel is the persistent sandbox platform that keeps infinite secure sandboxes on automatic standby with co-hosted agents and context for near instant latency. Achieve 25ms resume times and eliminate cold starts.
A thousand ways to sandbox an agent
There are a thousand ways to sandbox an agent. Okay, I lied. There are three: simulated, containers, and microVMs. Here's when to use each.
AgentBox · Free In-Browser AI Agent OS | Strukto
