What it is

A CLI that creates an isolated Lima-based VM for each project folder, with toolchains detected from the project's files. The VM mounts only the project folder and can run coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex and opencode, with network tiers that limit which hosts it reaches.

Who it's for

Developers who want to run coding agents or untrusted code in an isolated, per-project VM on macOS or Linux
