Need for a shared, composable sandbox for AI coding agents
Problem
Users seek a safe, composable environment to run AI coding agents without building their own sandboxes, to avoid vendor lock‑in, high token costs, and the risk of maintaining custom harnesses.
Pain points
- Concern about token costs of current solutions
- Need for a shared, composable sandbox environment for team collaboration
- Risk and cost of maintaining custom sandboxes or harnesses
Questions to verify
- Would you be willing to look for a shared sandbox solution beyond existing tools?
- Are you concerned about the token costs of current solutions?
- Do you need deeper customization to meet team collaboration requirements?

Just ... use systemd nspwan ... stop reinventing the wheel ...it has all the options you would ever want, and is actually deeply aware of the kernel capabilities.
fact
pi pod runs sessions of the pi coding agent in isolated sandboxes ("pods") on a server you run, in composable environments.
