Open-source (Rust, BSD-3) Codex-native personal agent platform whose defining trait is a hardware-isolated microVM per agent — Firecracker on Linux, Hyper-V on Windows, not just a container — wrapped in zero-trust controls: 'Pipelock' keeps secrets and credentials out of an agent's reach and an egress-allowlist proxy governs outbound traffic. Agents are authored, validated and launched entirely from Codex in-repo ('everything is a skill'), build their own capability-gated WASM tools at runtime, persist memory in a shared knowledge graph, and can run always-on via cron-style schedules and heartbeats.

AWS's fully managed, configuration-defined agent harness (GA June 17, 2026): two API calls (CreateHarness/InvokeHarness) stand up an agent with its own isolated session environment, filesystem and shell, cross-session memory, a curated skills catalog, and web browsing, running any Bedrock, OpenAI, Gemini, or LiteLLM-compatible model with mid-session provider switching and no separate harness charge.
