// Run code in a sandbox
NVIDIA OpenShell
NVIDIA’s open-source safe runtime for autonomous agents (latest stable v0.1.5, 2026-10-20): each agent runs in an isolated sandbox with kernel-level control of file access, system calls and every network connection; before a policy change is applied, formal verification flags risky new access (e.g. reaching a new host with credentials) for human review. Credentials only work at approved endpoints; ships a gateway, Kubernetes Helm deployment, Python/TypeScript/Go/Rust SDKs and agent skills. Needs Docker, Podman or host virtualization

NVIDIA OpenShell is NVIDIA’s open-source safe runtime for autonomous agents (latest stable v0.1.5, 2026-10-20): each agent runs in an isolated sandbox with kernel-level control of file access, system calls and every network connection; before a policy change is applied, formal verification flags risky new access (e.g. reaching a new host with credentials) for human review. Credentials only work at approved endpoints; ships a gateway, Kubernetes Helm deployment, Python/TypeScript/Go/Rust SDKs and agent skills. Needs Docker, Podman or host virtualization.
Good for: Developers who want their agent (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor…) to run code in a sandbox.
Not for: people who don’t want to install and run tools themselves.
01How to start
- 1Read the official README for requirements and permissions.
- 2Install it as the official guide describes.
- 3Tell your agent the command exists (e.g. in AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md) so it knows when to call it.
