Show HN: Agentspace – long-running YOLO agent sessions in Docker (github.com)

A new tool called agentspace has been announced, designed to facilitate long-running, autonomous coding agent sessions using Docker instead of traditional terminal multiplexers like tmux or screen. This approach allows each coding task to operate within its own isolated Docker container, providing a cleaner workspace environment. As tasks can be easily detached and reattached, developers maintain control over Git operations—ensuring that the agent can only make read-only queries while leaving commits and merges to the user. The significance of agentspace lies in its ability to enhance the coding workflow for AI/ML developers by allowing them to run sessions with Codex and Claude Code, manage their projects more efficiently, and leverage the benefits of containerization for reproducibility and resource management. The setup requires Node.js and Docker, automatically pulling agent images from GitHub, and it supports various workflows, including creating temporary environments for testing and previewing changes live. By ensuring that agents operate in a read-only mode concerning Git commands, agentspace promotes safe interactions with code while minimizing the risk of errors affecting the commit history.
