Perplexity SPACE: open-source Firecracker sandboxes for agent code

Perplexity open-sourced SPACE (Sandboxed Platform for Agentic Code Execution)—the Firecracker microVM sandbox behind Computer—under Apache 2.0 on Oct 15, 2026: HTTP/SSE APIs to create Linux environments, run commands, and manage lifecycle; partners CoreWeave, Akamai, and Crusoe plan to offer it; Semafor reports 0/118 breakout attempts vs other sandboxes in Perplexity’s tests.
