That's cool. Sounds very impressive. What's the point of all this security though? You don't want it to access your files, just give it its own Linux user. You don't even need a container. Better yet, you can give it root on a $3 VPS (or $30 Thinkpad) and get a sysadmin for free :) Although, Cheerpx... that seems to imply your agent can play Java and Flash games. Alright, you might be on to something!
it's never "just" ...
(for example: how do you manage this across multiple isolated sessions?)
opening a browser is much easier
... and the entry barrier for non-linux people at your company is much much lower
... and the compliance barrier for companies is much much lower (how do you ensure that everyone creates the users correctly?)
Author here. Some other technical tidbits: - Fully typed checked with JSdoc, and Bun/TS for testing. - stdlib-js is injected into every js runner and notebook for better math capabilities than vanilla js, and also charts etc. - App dev tasks utilize mithril for making SPAs, a very small no-dependency framework that is very fit to purpose for the client side nature of peerd apps. - Currently on main, tabs are global o…

JSdoc? Not typescript? What is this, 2010?

The default Claude voice is breathless, jargon-heavy showboating:
WebRTC transport (trickle ICE) — RTCPeerConnection data channels with trickle signaling; same-machine mDNS-loopback rewrite. Browser/device-verified. peerd-distributed/transport/transports/webrtc.js
TOFU rootfs integrity pin — pure decision logic: trust-on-first-use pin of base-image size + first-64KiB SHA-256, verified each boot, fails closed on drift. Head-only by construction — a faithful-head/tampered-tail host is an acknowledged residual gap. peerd-engine/image-pin.js (partial)
PDF reading (read_pdf) — pdf.js text-layer extraction with opt-in SRI-pinned OCR engine + page assembly. pdf/, tools/defs/read-pdf.js

I'm going to do a simonw here and coin "Markdown hoarding" for the Claudeism of producing reams of hyper-dense prose and compounding it with every commit that touches docs. The documentation gets more and more bloated.
