Community Voice & Feedback
Sandboxing agents is the right call - giving an agent full system access is a liability. Does it work for solo devs or is it built around team workflows with permissions and roles?
Love that list of integrations! Will forward this to my team
Insane product!! And insane ability to cook 🔥Sow questions:How does it work for deploying across multiple repos? (Modular / micro service architecture vs monolith)And across multiple products? (Can we connect it to notion where we keep all the specs?)
Runtime team is awesome!
Nice, congrats on the launch Gus!The on-call inspector got me. Curious on how you think about trust as this scales. Once non-engineers are shipping real changes from Slack, what makes a team comfortable letting the agent run without someone reviewing every step?
Used Runtime as soon as it launched and it was super useful to get non-technical folks setup and contribute code to a mature codebase while having the right guardrails in place.
Very cool! Our company has dealt with the struggles of using coding agents across different teams
Grats! Awesome to have full fledged app development in the sbx
As a small bootstrapped company building a product that has many dependencies and environments, we found that over time, each engineer became very siloed on the part of the stack that they could work on because setting up the right dev environment on another computer took forever. Runtime solves this issue for us and now every engineer can contribute pretty effortlessly at any part of the stack at a moments notice. Pretty game changing stuff going on here.
Sandboxed coding agents inside Slack is a genuinely good idea for teams — keeps the agent close to where decisions actually happen. My main question is around state: if an agent starts a task in one channel and needs context from another, how does Runtime handle that? Isolation is great until it becomes a silo.
I've seen the shipping speed from this team and it's really something else. BYOK, self-hosted VPC, multi-runtime, and hard spend caps into a v1 launch is impressive. Have experienced this pain point across multiple teams so I know you're onto something big. Congrats Gus!
Sandboxed agent execution with a Slack interface is the right call for getting coding agents to non-engineering teammates without security headaches. At RetainSure we've wanted to give our CS team self-serve data access via agents, but safe isolation has always been the blocker. Are the sandboxes ephemeral per run, or can users persist state across sessions? How do you handle secrets and credentials?
Isolating each agent's execution environment per team member is the right call. We've dealt with the contamination nightmare where one engineer's agent config bleeds into another's session. The Slack integration is a clean distribution channel. How does the sandbox lifecycle work? Are environments persistent across sessions or spun fresh per request, and what's the typical cold start time?
I’ve seen how enterprise teams are now starting to switch to use agents for building internal tooling but it’s messy when everyone have their own machine, environment, etc. Runtime fixes this! Kudos to @gustavo_trigos on building this great product!
The on-call inspector use case is what got me. An alert fires, the agent traces it back, and there's already a PR with a unit test before anyone even gets paged.. that's a complete autonomous loop, not just autocomplete with extra steps.I've been building agentic systems myself and added LangSmith tracing specifically because without it you're just guessing what actually happened across tool calls. But that's solo use.. at team scale you also need sandboxing, spend caps, and audit logs all working together, otherwise one agent going off the rails becomes a company-wide incident. Runtime seems to be the layer that actually makes that manageable.One thing I'm genuinely curious about.. when the on-call agent is pulling from PagerDuty, Sentry, and the repo at the same time, is that running as parallel subagents or a sequential chain? Asking because the failure handling is pretty different between the two, especially if one integration goes slow or flaky right in the middle of an incident.
