Developers who use `claude`, `codex`, or `opencode` **interactively** — one human pair-programming with one agent.

totopo is not an orchestration tool — no SDK, no parallel agents, no per-run worktrees. If you need those, look at dedicated agent-orchestration tools instead.

- **The blast radius is bounded** — the container can't push to remote or read outside the workspace, and you can hide files like `.env` from the agent (see [Shadow Paths](#shadow-paths)). For what this does and doesn't protect against, see [Threat Model](#threat-model).

## Threat Model
|
|
260
|
+
|
|
261
|
+
Totopo makes everyday agent mistakes safer. It is not built to stop a determined attacker.
|
|
262
|
+
|
|
263
|
+
**What it helps with:**
|
|
264
|
+
- Confused-agent mistakes — only the workspace is at risk; the rest of your machine is invisible.
|
|
265
|
+
- Casual prompt injection — the agent can't read your SSH keys or push to your remote, because neither is in the container.
|
|
266
|
+
|
|
267
|
+
**What it does not help with:**
|
|
268
|
+
- A determined adversarial agent. The network is open, and `/usr/bin/git` is reachable by absolute path even in strict mode. Anything in the workspace can still leave over HTTP.
|
|
269
|
+
- Secrets you didn't shadow. A `.env` tracked in git is visible unless you list it in `shadow_paths`.
|
|
270
|
+
- Container escapes. Totopo uses a non-root user and `no-new-privileges`, but no capability drops or seccomp profiles. For stronger isolation, use a microVM sandbox.
|
|
271
|
+
- Edits to your working tree. The workspace is bind-mounted, so agent changes land on your real files. Commit often.
