agent-workspace-linux

Active·★ 195·MIT·Updated 2026-10-18

Agent-workspace-linux provides an isolated, hidden Linux desktop environment for AI agents, allowing them to control a dedicated graphical interface and browser without interfering with the user's main system. This enables agents to perform tasks like GUI testing or web automation in a sandboxed, observable workspace.
