    "text": "The isolation philosophy comes from two things, right? First, we obviously want to reduce the blast radius if a agent goes haywire. That's mainly provided by running these in isolated sandboxes. That can obviously be in Docker or in containers, that can also be on separate EC2 instances. However, you like to manage your isolation.",
