smolmachines and smolvm tested as a sandbox for untrusted code
A research experiment evaluated smolmachines and smolvm as a fast sandbox for running untrusted Python and JavaScript with CPU, RAM, network, and filesystem restrictions. Because the original Claude Code web environment could not access nested virtualization, the tests were moved to a GitHub Actions runner with /dev/kvm support.
