    SuperHQ▲95

    Hey HN, I built SuperHQ, an app that lets you run coding agents in local sandboxes (powered by Shuru). No custom UI wrapping the agents, they run as CLI/TUI like they were designed to. It just provides you the tools most of us (okay, maybe just me?) needed for running multiple coding agents in parallel without worrying about breaking your system or work environment. Each agent runs in its own microVM. You mount your projects in, writes go to a tmpfs overlay so your host is never touched, and you get a unified diff view to accept or discard changes. API keys never enter the sandbox, they…

    Hi HN, we built SuperHQ, an open source app that runs AI coding agents in isolated microVM sandboxes instead of directly on your machine. Each agent gets its own VM with a full Debian environment. You mount your projects in, writes go to a tmpfs overlay so your host is never touched, and you get a diff view to accept or discard changes. API keys never enter the sandbox. We also just launched remote.superhq.ai which acts as a remote control for SuperHQ, allowing you to access your workspaces and agents from anywhere.

    If you’ve ever wondered -- “How can I make sure every device, managed or not, is secure before granting access?” -- “Am I at risk for this CVE or zero day exploit?” -- “How do I know that the controls I configured via MDM are actually enforced?” Device360 gives you the ability to answer those for yourself. Built on Osquery, the product lets you run real-time or scheduled queries to assess security posture, get a report of vulnerabilities, and test access policies. You can even deploy the authenticator on unmanaged devices. Open to feedback!
