Add Runtime Controls to AI Agents with NVIDIA OpenShell

- What happened
- NVIDIA released OpenShell 0.1.0, an open-source runtime that enforces which systems and data AI agents can access without modifying the agent code.
- Why it matters
- Engineering teams deploying autonomous agents need runtime controls to restrict API operations, protect credentials, and limit agent access to production systems and data.
- Watch out
- OpenShell 0.1.0 is early stage software. Filesystem and process restrictions require sandbox restart to change, and formal policy verification has documented limitations across multi-agent systems.

The patterns behind this
- Agentic SRE (Self-Healing Operations)
- Local-Distant Agent Data Protection Pattern
- Code as Action (CodeAct)
Each one covers how the technique works, when it earns its cost, and where it breaks.
