microsrv
use case · AI sandboxes
A persistent sandbox for AI agents.
Most AI sandboxes are short-lived containers, which makes them unsuitable for long-running services, browser automation, caches, and agents that resume work later. A microsrv VM is a complete Linux environment with root access, a volume, a private network, and SSH. Live migration keeps it running when the underlying host is reclaimed.

Give each agent run its own VM. A compromised or faulty agent cannot reach your laptop or other workloads, and you can delete the VM when the job is complete.
Private network
eBPF-isolated networks keep sandboxes separated from each other and from production. You can reach a sandbox through the WireGuard gateway from your work laptop.
No public IP required
Outbound NAT for model APIs and tools; inbound connections only through the SSH gateway and HTTPS gateway.
Disposable
Create a VM for each task and delete it when finished. Its volume and identity remain consistent while the job runs.
Outbound access without public ingress
Agents need to call model APIs, download packages, and browse the web. microsrv provides outbound NAT; inbound SSH and HTTPS go through the SSH gateway and HTTPS gateway.
Model APIs
Reach OpenAI, Anthropic, and other HTTPS APIs from inside the sandbox.
Builds and browsers
CI-style workers, scrapers, and browser automation fit the same private-outbound pattern.
Stable SSH
Control the VM from your code or laptop with ssh -A <vmId>@msrv.space.
Persistent environments for multi-step agents
Volumes, processes, and network identity remain intact when a host is reclaimed. Recovered VMs resume their work instead of starting in a new container.
Live migration
Memory and running processes move before the host is shut down.
Replicated storage
Caches, checkouts, and agent state remain on the volume across recoveries.
Lower cost
About 25% below major cloud rates for comparable capacity.
> capabilities
Built for agent fleets
Use the same VMs you would access over SSH yourself, without a proprietary container configuration.
Real Linux
Use root access, systemd, apt, and long-running services rather than a single-command sandbox.
Dedicated vCPUs
Dedicated vCPUs are exclusive to the VM for predictable agent throughput.
Optional HTTPS gateway
Publish HTTPS services at <vmId>.msrv.space when needed; keep other sandboxes private.
cloud-init support
Automate tool and credential setup during the first boot of every new sandbox.
Multi-VM groups
Place related workers on one private network for service-to-service traffic.
Ops-friendly SSH
Inspect, debug, and intervene over the same SSH gateway your automation uses.
Give each agent a complete Linux environment.
Persistent Linux VMs with SSH, outbound access, and live migration, priced for dynamic fleets.
