  "title": "From fork() to Fleet: Designing an Agent Sandbox Cloud — Abhishek Bhardwaj, OpenAI",
  "why_included": "Long-running coding agents need isolated, persistent sandboxes: microVMs limit kernel exposure, while incremental snapshots enable recovery, branching, and faster placement across a fleet.",
  "summary": "The proposed sandbox cloud uses **microVM isolation**, persistent disk state, and **incremental snapshots** that store changes between checkpoints. A control plane and scheduler place or restore sandboxes across clustered nodes and regions.",
  "practical_implication": "For long agent tasks, checkpoint the workspace so node failure, maintenance, or experimentation does not erase hours of work. Make scheduling snapshot-aware: restoring on a node that already holds the required layers reduces transfer and startup work.",

Warm pools consume idle resources, while memory-snapshot startup and hybrid pools trade operational simplicity for lower creation latency; the talk offers design intuition rather than measured fleet results.",
