About

NVIDIA OpenShell is an open, secure runtime for autonomous AI agents that governs how agents execute, what they can access, and where inference traffic goes. Security is enforced in the environment rather than inside the model or application: nothing is permitted by default, permissions are granted through policy, and enforcement happens outside the agent process so it cannot be bypassed through prompting. Each agent runs in an isolated sandbox with no direct network access, limited file access, and kernel-level monitoring of system calls. A gateway acts as the control plane, authenticating users, managing sandbox lifecycles, and delivering policies, settings, credentials, and inference configuration. A supervisor runs outside each sandbox, evaluates network requests against policy at the binary, destination, method, and path levels, and provides credentials only when allowed.

About

boat provides powerful cloud virtual machines and persistent sandboxes built for long-running AI agents, allowing users to spawn thousands of cloud computers with browsers and persistent files without managing the entire infrastructure themselves. Each sandbox is a full Ubuntu Linux virtual machine with SSH and SCP access, Docker support, dedicated IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, a 60 fps virtual desktop, and fast disk-level forking from snapshots. Docker, VS Code, Chrome, Ghostty, GitHub CLI, Rust, Node.js, and Bun come pre-installed, enabling users to run any development tool, language, or workflow. Boat supports agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode, with tools to prompt, observe, and control agent environments remotely through its CLI, HTTP API, and Python or TypeScript SDKs. Users can execute commands, copy files, monitor agent messages and tool calls, host applications through public HTTPS URLs, and access integrated desktops and browsers.
