Because of findings like this

The way I think of it is, coding agents are power tools. They can be incredibly useful, but can also wreak a lot of havoc. Anthropic (et al) is marketing them to beginners and inevitably someone is going to lose their fingers.
I understand the need, but I don't understand why a VM or Docker is not enough. Why are people creating custom wrappers around VMs/containers?
Docker isn't virtualization; it's not that hard to infiltrate the underlying system if you really want to. But as for VMs--they are enough! They're also a lot of boilerplate to set up, manage, and interact with. yolo-cage is that boilerplate.
