Sandboxed execution

Builds and runs the change in an isolated environment to confirm it installs, starts and passes its checks before anyone relies on it.

Sub-techniques

  • Ephemeral environment V1026.001

    A fresh container or microVM per change with the repository's toolchain.

  • Reproduce-then-verify V1026.002

    Reproduce a reported bug in the sandbox, apply the fix, and show the same command now passes.

How to build it

  1. Describe the environment as code (a Dagger pipeline or container image).
  2. Run the repository's own install, lint and test commands inside it.
  3. Keep the logs as evidence attached to the change.

Signals in a repository

  • dagger.json, devcontainer.json or a setup script used by CI.
  • Bots that post reproduction logs on issues or PRs.
