Sandboxed tool execution

Running an agent's tool calls inside an isolated environment that limits filesystem, network and process access.

The post-OpenClaw-crisis baseline. A sandboxed tool runs in a Docker container, gVisor sandbox, Apple container, or Workers runtime — with explicit allowlists for filesystem paths, network destinations and resource limits. Default-on in Hermes Agent, IronClaw and OpenClaw 2026.4+. Default-off in Nanobot (deliberately minimal).
