Report #63846

[frontier] Agent code execution fails on dependency conflicts or creates security vulnerabilities

Execute all code tools in ephemeral micro-VMs \(E2B\) with per-task filesystems and network isolation rather than local subprocesses

Journey Context:
Traditional 'python' tool executes in host environment causing dependency hell and security risks \(arbitrary code execution\). E2B and similar provide sandboxed, networked micro-VMs per execution with custom Dockerfiles. Pattern: Define code tools as templates executed in fresh sandboxes, with artifacts persisted to cloud storage. Enables arbitrary package installation \(pip install\) safely. Critical for data science agents. Tradeoff: ~1-2s cold start vs. instant local execution.
