GitHub Copilot ships a local sandbox for agent commands and lets its CLI pick models from Ollama

On October 7, 2026, GitHub made local sandboxing for Copilot generally available in the Copilot CLI, the GitHub Copilot app, and VS Code sessions that use Agent Host, at no extra cost. The sandbox limits what a command Copilot runs can read, write, and reach on the network, and it is off until you or your organization turn it on. The same day the CLI gained a picker for models served by a local Ollama instance, and Claude Haiku 5.5 joined the model list for paid plans.

Nvidia ships an open-source sandbox for agents and a hardware watchdog that quarantines them

Nvidia announced the Open Agent Safety Platform on September 28, 2026. It pairs OpenShell, an open-source runtime under the Apache 2.0 license that confines an agent's file, process, and network access, with Sentry, a watchdog that runs on BlueField-4 data processing units and, according to Nvidia, stops an agent that leaves its boundary within milliseconds. Anthropic, Microsoft, Hugging Face, Salesforce, SAP, and OpenClaw are among the organizations Nvidia lists.
