Microsoft releases 'MXC,' an SDK for isolating untrusted code such as model output and plugins (community report)

What happened

According to GeekNews, MXC (Microsoft eXecution Container) is a system for running untrusted code such as model output, plugins, and tools in isolation on Windows, Linux, and macOS. It comes as an SDK embedded in applications and supports multiple backends, from native OS process sandboxes to full VMs.

Why it matters

Safely executing agent-generated code is a core challenge in agent security. A standard cross-OS isolation SDK would reduce the burden on developers of building their own sandboxes.
