alt Hacker NewsI want to like codex, but the quality is just not very good, especially when compared to Claude.
It used to work okay, but a while back they landed a major regression for an entire team of folks I work with.
No response, no workaround.

I don’t trust any agent to respect any boundaries. They might today. But tomorrow’s vibe coded slip update might break it in subtle ways.
My solution to this is to only run agents in a sandbox of my own making (a locked down Podman container).

Decent sandbox + sandbox override experience with pi coding agent... pi-sandbox uses the same sandbox tech that claude code uses, although it uses a fork that's a little behind, and I'm not sure exactly why it uses a fork.
You can install pi, then install pi-sandbox locked to the current version. Here it is described how pi-sandbox plus an additional extension allow you to have the experience where a sandbox is used, but you can fall back to unsandboxed with approval required. https://github.com/carderne/pi-sandbox/issues/50
