Docker sandbox

Sandbox using a Docker container with filesystem mount and network policy controls.

The most common sandbox model in 2026. Hermes Agent and post-2026.3 OpenClaw both use Docker sandboxes. Strong against typical attack vectors but not impervious — kernel-level escape is theoretical and gVisor or Apple containers are stronger options for high-stakes deployments.
