I 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?

Exactly that!

any chance i can run local micro-VM such as boxlite with this?

not at the moment. You can use lakeFS directly with Fuse-Mount to do something similar with your own compute.

got it, will definitely check it out do you have some performance number of lakeFS in your mind

Interesting project. I am building an IDE for my phone and browser (www.propelcode.app) and have evaluated a few container architectures and providers. It was quite painful to get a prototype working. I will try your platform and would be happy to give feedback.

Much appreciated! and good luck with your project

What’s the best way to give you user feedback? What would be most helpful? What’s your ideal customer profile?

oz dot katz at treeverse.io would be best. ICP is SMB/mid-sized ISVs.

Nice, I think that's pretty neat. Do you have an idea where to take this further? I.e. for the filesystem it's great but what if you need to touch external systems that keep their own state?

In a perfect world, every system and external API would expose a standardized interface for versioning its own immutable state, so you'd be able to rollback and time travel across multiple such systems.

Not sure what else we can do in this world other than tightly control outbound requests and provide enough visibility into those requests for a human|agent to try and undo changes.

Happy to hear your thoughts - what would you like to see us take this?

more tools I will never use or need theres just an endless supply of new open source projects now I stopped paying attention

I increasingly feel the impact of landing on the frontpage of HN is not as pronounced as it used to be. The demographic shift of HN is also noted, it has a lot more "reddit" vibe than I remember.
