Kontext Security claims Sandy provides coding agents with an observable sandbox and enforceable policy controls, making unattended execution safer to operate.

What is this?

Sandy is described in the supplied search answer as a Kontext Security sandbox for AI coding agents, combining isolated execution, monitoring, and enforceable policies intended to reduce unauthorized access and data exfiltration during unattended runs. The result snippets support the broader product pattern—system-level network restrictions, filesystem controls, mandatory access controls, and isolated agent execution—but none directly mention Sandy or independently establish its specific capabilities. The attribution to Kontext Security and Sandy’s feature claims therefore rest on the supplied summary rather than corroborating snippets.

Why it matters to Scott

Sandy repeats the containment, policy-gating, and observability pattern already carried by Scott’s SiloOS and Runtime Containment pages and tracked by the radar in agent-sandboxing and OneCLI. With its capabilities resting on an uncorroborated product summary and no distinctive mechanism established, this is a closely aligned example rather than evidence that would change Scott’s architecture or argument.
