Nice to see container use mentioned (https://github.com/dagger/container-use). I work with the team that made it (a lot of ex-Docker folks including the creator of Docker.)

Running agents in parallel will be a big deal as soon as we learn (or the agents learn) how to reliably work with just one.

Even before then, if you're trying to get work done while the agent is doing its own thing or you find yourself watching over the agent's "shoulder" out of fear it'll change something you didn't ask it to change, then it's useful to run it in a containerized dev environment.

Container use is definitely early but moving quickly, and probably improved even since this post was published. We're currently focused on stability, reducing git confusion, better human<>agent interaction, and environment control.
