Show HN: Zerobox – Sandbox any command with file and network restrictions (github.com)

Again, it’s blacklisting so kind of impossible to get right. I’ve looked at this many times, but in order for things to properly work, you have to create a huge, huge, huge, huge sandbox file.

Especially for your application that you any kind of Apple framework.

Personally I would probably always reach for a docker container if I want a sandboxed command that can run identically anywhere.

I appreciate that alternate sandboxing tools can reduce some of the heavier parts of docker though (i.e. building or downloading the correct image)

How would you compare this tool to say bubblewrap https://github.com/containers/

The text says that it uses OS-level tools, specifically bubble wrap on Linux.

Very interesting. I just started researching this topic yesterday to build something for adjacent use cases (sandboxing LLM authored programs). My initial prototype is using a wasm based sandbox, but I want something more robust and flexible.

Some of my use cases are very latency sensitive. What sort of overhead are you seeing?

Cool project, and I think there would be a lot of value in just logging all operations.

For just logging would it really give any more info than a trace already does?
