A runtime that runs autonomous AI agents in isolated sandboxes and enforces an owner-declared policy on file access, system calls and network connections.

Where it sits

3.1 Execution sandboxes (primary): Runs each agent in an isolated sandbox with kernel controls on file access and system calls, and checks every outbound network connection against the owner's declared policy.

every network connection passes through a policy check before it leaves the sandbox

captured

Each sandbox combines runtime isolation with OpenShell policy controls that prevent unauthorized data access, credential exposure, and network exfiltration.

You declare what each agent can touch in a policy, and OpenShell enforces it.
