NVIDIA Open-Sources OpenShell: Secure Sandbox Runtime for Autonomous AI Agents

NVIDIA released OpenShell under Apache 2.0, providing a containerized runtime that enforces policy-based security, network isolation, and privacy guardrails for autonomous coding agents including Claude Code and Codex. The release addresses a critical gap in agent deployment: filesystem lockdown at creation, network-blocked-by-default posture, and API keys never touching disk. Enterprise adoption spans Adobe, Atlassian, CrowdStrike, SAP, and Salesforce.
