Anthropic open-sources the OS-level sandbox sandbox-runtime: providing container-free file and network isolation for AI agents.

On October 24, 2026, Anthropic open-sourced sandbox-runtime (srt), an OS-level sandboxing tool that operates without containers, designed to restrict file read/write and network access permissions for AI agents, MCP servers, and CLI tools. It supports macOS (Seatbelt), Linux (bubblewrap), and Windows (alpha), with npm package version 0.0.81 under the Apache-2.0 license.

Why it matters:This tool represents a significant advancement in AI security infrastructure—achieving fine-grained, full-process-tree coverage through the operating system’s native isolation mechanisms, directly addressing the risks of prompt injection and privilege escalation, and has already been deployed for internal validation within Claude Code.

Smartsheet launches the Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, enabling AI agents to connect directly to real-time project data on AWS.

Smartsheet has officially launched the general‑purpose Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, which uses a standardized protocol to enable AI agents to read and write structured data—such as project tables, rows, columns, and automations—in Smartsheet. The service is now available within the AWS ecosystem, supporting access from two types of clients: Amazon Quick, aimed at business users, and Kiro, designed for developers. This allows for natural‑language‑driven cross‑tool task updates, status synchronization, and context‑aware development.
