Fly.io is so cool.
The way they force at least one "fuck" into all of their promo is just so cool.
Erm, I mean so fuck cool!

#172I know it's one me for thinking this -- since the domain is fly.io -- but I was really hoping this is some local solution. Not self-hosted, but just local. A thin command line wrapper to something (docker? bubblewrap?) that gave me sort of a containerized "VM" experience for my local machine using CoW.
If you are on mac, you can use Coderunner[1]. It will run locally on your and execute any AI generated code in an apple container.

#173How does the sprite ecosystem know when a sprite needs additional resources? If you start maxing out cores or ram usage gets too high you just automatically get allocated more cores/ram? (Assuming live/dynamically correct?)
Re: Code and Let Live
#174On the documentation, you install the NPM package via Anthropic: https://sprites.dev/api (on this page, if you select Node)
npm install @anthropic-ai/sprites
Is there some relationship between Anthropic and Fly.io that I didn't hear about?

#175Earlier quoted context omitted.
I wonder the same thing. What’s so different than your own vps and using lxd to create a container. Make two bash aliases and wow you can go in and out quickly and recreate it with one command.
If you have an LXD setup working for your own workloads that's working well for you, that's awesome. Why would we want to talk you out of that? Fundamentally you're getting at the difference between "elastic" cloud services and personal infrastructure. Personal infra is great! If it helps: Jerome has been working for a couple months on a local, open-source Rust version of Sprites, so you can use the same DX with your…
Glad to hear that the coming local version of Sprites will be open-source. I hope there will be some way to financially reward that work, aside from buying Fly services that I likely wouldn't use.

#177Not really seeing what's amazing about this. It looks like something very similar to what Fly already offers, just ad-hoc and snapshottable. Still Firecracker underneath.
I've been wanting to sandbox Copilot/Claude Code for a while, but I don't want to pay for a PaaS just to do that. I want to run the sandbox on my M4 chip instead of needing a constant internet connection to run code on an anaemic remote CPU.

Probably because you didn't include the content type header?
why does an API that only accepts json need me to specify in a header that it’s json. just assume it’s json. you’re gonna parse and validate it anyway.
that's actually a reasonable point.

#179Would it be possible for the CLI not to be binary and just a shell script, or a webshell would be great.
My issue is I've had my work laptop wiped twice because of things I've installed on it and it's a hassle to switch accounts/devices but I've love to give sprites a go.

really? how come? what are they using to detect binaries?
