The HN capture links to Docker Sandboxes, but the product page was not fetched. The discussion’s central technical correction is that Docker says each session is a microVM, not a container.
Why it matters: When assessing an agent sandbox, compare the isolation boundary with the permissions granted to the agent. The comments raise questions about breakout constraints and access controls but do not answer them, so the microVM label alone does not settle the security discussion.
