Could someone explain to me what the general workflow is now that people are converging to? I haven't really been catching up with the AI ecosystem but I was looking into agent sandboxes and VM's recently and there's a ton of these startups and tools now. Is giving the agent a temporary scratchbox really that valuable?
I've been still just like, making VM's with proxmox, then putting my agent in the machine and letting it run free (with my dotfiles setup script making dev env pretty much free, though I could also just make a VM snapshot). What's wrong with that? Is that not the scalable solution for enterprise rn?

I outgrew this when I wanted to bring different sets of skills and templates to different machines, wanted to be able to share a small number of credentials, different agents in different machines, different egress rules etc. I wrote <a href="https://github.com/pjlsergeant/byre" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/pjlsergeant/byre which gives you a TUI and some machinery for doing this easily on top of Docker or Podman.
