SHURU – Local-First Sandboxes for AI Agents on macOS

Summary: SHURU runs AI agents in isolated lightweight Linux VMs on macOS using Apple Virtualization.framework. It provides ephemeral environments by default with optional checkpoints for state reuse, requiring no Docker or cloud services.

What it does

SHURU boots microVMs to execute AI agent commands in isolation on Apple Silicon, discarding environments after use or saving checkpoints for reuse.

Who it's for

Developers running AI agents on macOS who need secure, local sandboxed environments without Docker or cloud dependencies.

Why it matters

It prevents AI agents from affecting the host system by isolating their execution in disposable virtual machines.
