alt Hacker NewsI was trying to build an agent. None of the sandboxes out there had solved the filesystem problem. I want my agent to have a persistent storage, and that stays forever. Like a human with a computer. When the agent spins up again, it has access to the computer with the same files.
I had to create my own setup using aws s3 filesystem and docker for this.
Does Tilde solve for this?

Hey, this is exactly what we do at https://instavm.io Agents get persistent storage that outlive the sandbox and when the agent spins up again you get access to the computer with same files.
Snapshotting a filesystem is trivial with e.g. btrfs. You can hook snapshot creation in your agent.
That is a single one liner of btrfs subvolume snapshot, in a single hook configuration file, ready to be valued at $10B as quantum agentic versioned sandbox startup.
Isn't that like working on a codebase with an agent?
Nanoclaw mounts each agent's folder to the ephemeral container.
Exactly that!
This is something solved by a bunch of new sandboxes including ours - SmolVM
