One problem with using containers as an isolation environment for a coding assistant is that it becomes challenging to have the agent work on a containerized project. You often need some janky "docker-in-docker" nonsense that hampers efforts.

I like using LXC containers, eg full persistent OS and you can do docker if you want etc. I started this and it works well for me to put on a server or VPS:

I was planning to have worktrees bind mounted systematically, but agree it’s not super clean atm at scale (yet)
