A dedicated runtime
Each silo has a rootless container, Chromium desktop, browser profile, and work directory. Keep agent work separate from your own.
Rootless Podman containersLet your agents work. Keep the boundaries.
Disposable environments with isolated desktops, a separate host identity, and policy-controlled network access.
Rootless containers. Deliberate permissions. Your control.
A workspace of their own.
You set the network policy.
Create, run, and tear down.
The environment your agents need, with explicit control over what they can reach.
Each silo has a rootless container, Chromium desktop, browser profile, and work directory. Keep agent work separate from your own.
Rootless Podman containersSilos run under the unprivileged agentsilo host identity. Your home, browser sessions, and privileged sockets stay out of the silo.
Per-silo policies route traffic through an identity relay and proxy. Allow, deny, or ask for approval, with every decision audited.
Fail-closed network egressDownload and install the Ubuntu host package, then run the documented action sequence. Open the desktop client to create your first silo.
On Windows? The desktop app manages a WSL2 Ubuntu environment for your silos.

Give Pi or Codex its own work directory and terminal. Attach directly to the agent through the desktop operator UI.
Work with a silo's Chromium desktop through the noVNC viewer. Browser profiles stay separate from your personal sessions.
Create, start, attach, recover, restart, and purge. Manage silo state and network approvals from one operator interface.
You manage the lifecycle. Each silo's outbound traffic passes through identity and policy controls.
Manage silos, attach to desktops, and review approvals.
A narrow workspace API and disposable rootless containers.
Relay, proxy, and per-silo policy control outbound access.
