Permission prompts is a TERRIBLE model, and never should have existed. This is one of the reasons that led to the development of yoloAI:

- No permission prompts. The agent has free reign and never has to ask permission, but is in a sandbox.

- Sandbox on Linux using Docker, Podman, containerd, gVisor, Kata, Firecracker

- Sandbox on Mac using Docker (Docker Desktop or Orbstack), Podman, Apple containers, Seatbelt, Tart (Tart lets you run simulators).

- Network control

- Secrets control (file mounts or credentials broker)

- NO ambient data (ENV is replaced with a minimal and local-to-sandbox one)

- NO access to your homedir. You have to explicitly mount things you want.

- NO direct access to your workdir: You can get a diff of the changes the agent made, and then choose whether to apply them.

- gitignored files never get copied in. The agent never sees them.

- FOSS
