Coding Agents Are Becoming CI Workers. Start Sandboxing Them Like It.A practical seven-layer guide: sandbox, egress allowlists, short-lived credentials, propose/dispose CI, telemetry, and a kill switch
Omid Farhang argues the durable upgrade for coding agents isn't a smarter model—it's containment. A layered guide covering Docker isolation, egress proxies, propose/dispose CI, patch validators, telemetry, and a tested kill switch.

Free the models: Harness design at the frontierWhy Replit Agent lets the core loop pick subagent tier, effort, and specialists—and beats rigid routers on cost/score
Replit's AI team argues model routers are always weaker than the models they choose for. Their harness lets GPT-6 Astra decide effort and delegation; on DeepSWE and Terminal-Bench, Replit Agent is Pareto-efficient versus Astra alone and a sidekick architecture.
