Agent sandboxing limits potential damage from autonomous code execution. File systems, credentials, networks, and resources are constrained to the necessary task scope.
Use this profile to understand the building block briefly, place it in the model, and open related building blocks.
Executable approach: can be applied and produces an outcome.
What organizes, connects, or makes decisions possible.
Agent sandboxing runs agents in an isolated environment with restricted privileges and controlled resources.
The pattern builds on operating-system isolation, process isolation, and container security models. It became important for agents because generated actions may touch files, commands, or networks and therefore need a controlled execution boundary.
Imagine a workbench behind a safety screen: the agent may work there, but can reach only explicitly approved tools and materials.
The technical boundary between an agent and the surrounding environment.
Explicit authorization for file, process, or network access.
A limited asset such as CPU time, memory, files, or network access.
Sandboxing limits the damage caused by faulty or misused agent actions. It protects only within its configuration; overly broad permissions, data exfiltration, and kernel flaws remain risks.
