Agent Lab
Let a coding agent run with the brakes off, inside a box where that is safe.
Engineers who want agent throughput without giving one root on their laptop.

What it is
Agent Lab lets Codex and Claude Code run in their fully unrestricted modes while Docker confines them to the one project folder you explicitly mount. The dangerous setting becomes the safe setting because the blast radius is the container.
Logins for the agent CLIs, GitHub and Google Cloud live in Docker-only named volumes, so credentials survive between sessions without ever sitting in the sandbox filesystem. One install script sets up a new machine.
Capabilities
What it actually does.
Engineers who want agent throughput without giving one root on their laptop.
Unrestricted agent modes
Unrestricted agent modes confined to an explicitly mounted project directory
Credentials isolated in
Credentials isolated in Docker-only named volumes, never in the sandbox tree
Single install script
Single install script; images build on first use
One command surface
One command surface across both agent CLIs for logins and MCP servers
How it works
3 moves, end to end.
This is how Agent Lab works, not a set of steps you can follow yet — it is in development and not distributed.
Drop it in
Agent Lab attaches to the repository or project you already have.
Give it the job
It takes a concrete task with a defined output, not an open-ended prompt.
Review the result
Everything it produces is a diff, a file or a report you approve before it counts.
Specification
Made of, and made when.
Read from the repository at build time rather than typed onto a marketing page.
