Red Hat announced Red Hat Desktop (May 12) with built-in AI agent sandboxing capabilities. The tool uses the Red Hat build of Podman Desktop (4M+ downloads) to execute and test autonomous agents in protected containers on local hardware, preventing unverified agent actions from touching the host OS.
