Lua.ex: Sandboxed Lua 5.3 on the Beam, Built for AI Agents · Lua.ex
Lua.ex is a new Elixir-native virtual machine for embedding Lua 5.3 code within applications, designed with AI agents in mind. It offers a sandboxed environment, preventing untrusted code from accessing sensitive system functions and ensuring all opcodes are auditable. The VM provides seamless interop between Elixir and Lua, allowing developers to expose specific Elixir functions to Lua scripts and call Lua functions from Elixir, with compile-time syntax validation for enhanced developer experience.
