Runtime authorization & controls

E2B

Apache-2.0 sandbox infrastructure that gives agents isolated cloud environments to execute model-generated code, process files and run tools, controlled from Python or JavaScript SDKs. Sandboxes bound where agent code runs, but E2B is an execution boundary rather than a policy decision point for tool authorization.

Ask for a demonstration

Show me an agent running untrusted generated code in an E2B sandbox with filesystem and network limits, then show the same workload on a self-hosted E2B cluster.

Capabilities and evidence

Support labels reflect the supplied research. Documentation and vendor claims are not independent product tests. “Not established” means the researcher did not find support; it does not prove a capability is absent.

Documented by provider

E2B provides isolated sandboxes in which agents execute code, process data and run tools, started and managed through Python and JavaScript SDKs.

Limit: Documentation fetched does not detail the isolation technology or a formal security boundary assessment.
