🎯 Real-World Use Cases

Keep the agent in a container

Every filesystem and shell request is intercepted and executed inside the container, never on the host.

Keep secrets in the dark

Nothing is visible to the agent by default until you explicitly mount or copy it in.

Use any ACP client

Abyss speaks ACP, so your existing editor or client can drive the isolated agent.
