Report #94472

[synthesis] How do autonomous coding agents prevent LLM hallucinations and environment drift from corrupting the host system?

Run the agent's execution environment inside an ephemeral, containerized sandbox where the agent has root access, and sync only the diff back to the host.

Journey Context:
Early agents ran commands locally, risking the host OS and suffering from environment drift \(missing packages\). Devin's breakthrough \(confirmed by E2B architecture and OpenDevin\) is giving the LLM its own full sandbox. The agent can install packages, run servers, and break things safely. The host only pulls the final git diff. This allows the agent to test its code aggressively without human risk, turning execution feedback into a reliable error-correction loop.
