Pocketenv features
- Multi-provider sandbox support. Run environments on Cloudflare, Deno, Vercel, Daytona, Modal, E2B and more via a single interface.
- Instant disposable environments. Spin up isolated dev environments in seconds that are automatically destroyed when done.
- Git repository loading. Clone and work with any Git repo directly inside the sandbox.
- Secure port and service exposure. Expose ports and services safely without exposing your host network.
- Browser-based VS Code. Launch a full VS Code instance in the browser from within the sandbox.
- Reproducible environment sharing. Create shareable links that reproduce the exact sandbox state for collaborators.
- Point-in-time backups. Rollback a sandbox to a previous state using built-in backup snapshots.
- CLI installation. Install Pocketenv via a single curl command for quick local access.
WorldSeed features
- YAML-based world definition. Define spaces, characters, goals, secrets and perception rules in a single YAML file.
- Deterministic rule engine. Computable actions (movement, items, visibility) are resolved instantly by the engine.
- LLM Dungeon Master. Uncertain outcomes are judged by an LLM that returns structured effects.
- Information asymmetry. Each agent only sees what the rules allow, enabling secret-keeping and deception.
- Event-sourced replay log. All ticks are logged for replayable analysis of emergent behavior.
- Language-agnostic runtime. Supports agents written in Python, TypeScript, OpenClaw, Codex subagents, etc.
- Interactive dashboard. Watch, intervene, or play as a character via a web UI with replay capabilities.
- Open-source MIT license. Free to use, modify, and extend without commercial restrictions.
