InstaVM

What it does

The production control plane for AI agents. Run agents like production servers: isolated, observable, and controlled. Firecracker microVMs with sub-200ms boot.

Beyond sandboxes. A cloud built for agents, complete with runtime, storage, networking, secrets, and policy. Execute AI agent code in isolated microVMs with RESTful API access and persistent state. Each agent gets its own Linux environment with full filesystem, networking, and package management. from instavm import InstaVM client = InstaVM (api_key= "your_api_key" ) snapshot = client.snapshots. create ( oci_image= "python:3.12-slim" , name= "py312" ) vm = client.vms. create ( snapshot_id=snapshot[ "id" ], vcpu_count= 4 , memory_mb= 8192 ) result = client. execute ( "python3 agent.py" , language= "bash" ) print (result) vm_snapshot = client.vms. snapshot (vm[ "vm_id" ], name= "after-run" )…from instavm.io

  Open-source playground to red-team AI agents with exploits publishedMar 2026 · github.com · ▲30

  We build runtime security for AI agents. The playground started as an internal tool that we used to test our own guardrails. But we kept finding the same types of vulnerabilities because we think about attacks a certain way. At some point you need people who don't think like you. So we open-sourced it. Each challenge is a live agent with real tools and a published system prompt. Whenever a challenge is over, the full winning conversation transcript and guardrail logs get documented publicly. Building the general-purpose agent itself was probably the most fun part. Getting it to reliably use…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
