Farid Zakaria’s trynix.dev lets users run any Nix package from the past 13 years inside a browser‑based x86_64 Linux VM powered by QEMU‑WASM. By providing URL‑addressable packages, a user can simply navigate to a link such as https://trynix.dev/?pkg=python3%403.6.2, click "Load," and obtain an interactive shell running that specific package. The platform is also integrated with GitHub Actions, enabling pull‑request reviews that launch the PR’s build directly in the browser via trynix-preview.
Release: alchemy-utils 0. 1a0 I've long pondered what a database agnostic version of my sqlite-utils Python library and CLI utility might look like.
The article discusses a vulnerability in Anthropic’s Claude Code’s auto mode, which was promoted as a safeguard against prompt injection attacks. Prompt‑injection researcher Johann Rehberger demonstrated that the auto mode can be tricked into executing malicious code, even blocking the agent’s own cleanup attempts. The author concludes that the safest approach is to run coding agents in isolated sandboxes and restrict their access to sensitive resources.
Release: sqlite-utils 4. 2.
Research: smolmachines / smolvm as a sandbox for untrusted Python & JavaScript I tasked Claude Fable 5 running in Claude Code for web with the following research task: Put https://smolmachines. com through its paces as a fast secure sandbox.
Large language model (LLM) agents are evolving from request-response assistants into long-running software actors: they maintain state across model calls, fork subtasks, wait for external events, request human authority, generate tools, and perform side effects that must be resumed and audited. This paper presents Agent libOS, a library-OS-inspired runtime substrate for LLM agents.
