AID-I-001: AI Execution Sandboxing & Runtime Isolation

Version 1.20261015 · Family — navigation only

Execute AI models, autonomous agents, or individual AI tools and plugins within isolated environments such as sandboxes, containers, or microVMs. These environments must be configured with strict limits on resources, permissions, and network connectivity. The primary goal is that if an AI component is compromised or behaves maliciously, the impact is confined to the isolated sandbox, preventing harm to the host system or lateral movement.

Scope boundary

Owns isolation of AI models, agents, and tools inside bounded execution environments with constrained resources, permissions, filesystems, and network access. It confines a compromised runtime; it does not sanitize web content, isolate browser-managed task state, or confine an embedded client-side model inside the user's application runtime.

AID-I-007: AID-I-001 isolates server-side or managed AI execution environments; AID-I-007 confines a client-side model or model runtime inside a browser, Electron shell, hybrid app, or mobile application. Use AID-I-007 for component-level Web Worker, iframe, WASM, CSP, and native-bridge boundaries inside the client application, not as a substitute for the enclosing managed sandbox family.

AID-I-008: AID-I-001 isolates execution processes and tool runtimes; AID-I-008 isolates browser-managed and desktop-workspace state per task or trust zone. A process sandbox does not by itself rotate cookies, browser storage, downloads, clipboard, history, desktop profiles, or authenticated computer-use state.

AID-H-018.009: AID-I-001 contains a process, container, microVM, WASM, or other workload boundary; AID-H-018.009 confines the particular filesystem object that a model-influenced path may open or affect, including in-process tools. Isolation and opened-object confinement remain independently applicable and neither PASS substitutes for the other.

AID-H-021.005: AID-I-001 contains execution after an AI development client starts a task, tool, extension, server, or other workload; AID-H-021.005 decides whether the exact repository-controlled activation manifest may leave restricted mode in the first place. A sandbox does not approve workspace activation, and a trusted activation manifest does not prove runtime containment.
