Report #91547

[frontier] Risky operations \(web scraping, code execution\) compromise long-running agent state or cause security breaches

Fork agent state using copy-on-write semantics into ephemeral sandboxed children \(Firecracker/gVisor\) for dangerous tasks, merging only verified results back to parent

Journey Context:
Long-running agents accumulate precious context. For untrusted operations, fork the agent \(like \`fork\(\)\` syscall\) into a Firecracker microVM, execute, validate output, then merge back. If the child crashes or is compromised, the parent survives. This brings microservice isolation to monolithic agents without the overhead of full containers for every operation.
