Rate Limiting & Sandboxing

Rate Limiting & Sandboxing

To prevent DoS and lateral exploitation, tools and agents should run in isolated sandboxes and adhere to rate-limiting quotas. Sandboxing Approaches:
  • Docker + seccomp profiles
  • gVisor or Firecracker for syscall isolation
  • Python: subprocess with chroot or jail + resource cgroups
Rate Limiting Dimensions:
  • Per-user call limit (e.g., 100 tasks/hour)
  • Per-model or per-tool CPU time
  • Concurrent tool chain length
Advanced Option: Implement circuit breakers, if a workflow exceeds a threshold (latency, depth, memory), auto-abort and log.
