Isolated Linux desktop workspaces for AI agents — a hidden, agent-owned desktop and browser over MCP, so an agent can do GUI and web work without touching your real desktop.

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.
