OpenBSD powers 198 AI agents with minimal resource footprint

By PulseAugur Editorial · Summary by gemini-2.5-flash-lite from 1 source

A user has developed an AI agent harness utilizing OpenBSD 7.8, running 198 agents concurrently on a single kernel. This setup employs a secure C wrapper involving chroot, unveil, and pledge system calls for each agent's execution, with network egress managed by PF and all system calls logged. The system is designed for efficiency, with idle agents consuming minimal resources until activated. AI

    Built an AI agent harness on OpenBSD 7.8, as a test and - because why not(?) It's 198 agents. 198 UNIX users. One kernel. Each job runs through a setuid C wrapper: chroot(2) → unveil(2) → pledge(2) → execve(2) PF handles per-department egress. Every syscall is logged. Idle agents…
