Coder Explained: Secure Environments for Devs and Agents
What Coder is, how it provides governed cloud workspaces for developers and AI agents, and why enterprise agents need this layer.

Real guardrails for AI agents in production: input validation, action allow-lists, sandboxing, cost ceilings, and human-in-the-loop. Patterns you can ship.
Autonomous AI agents that run code and shell commands need isolation. Why sandboxes are non-negotiable in production, the isolation levels, and how to choose.
A comparison of AI sandboxes for agent development in 2026: E2B, Modal, Daytona, and self-hosted options. Cold-start latency, isolation, and pricing.
A teardown of how OpenHands, the open-source AI coding agent, plans, edits files, and runs code in a sandbox: the event-stream and action-observation loop.
