strands-agents/box

Run AI agents in a sandbox that restricts what they can execute, read, write, and reach on the network. Box combines OS isolation with default-deny Dogwood policies and credential injection that keeps secrets outside the agent. Written in Rust. Supports macOS on Apple silicon, with Linux support planned.
