Autonomous AI agents that execute generated code expose their hosts to a substantial attack surface. We present SafeBox, a sandbox architecture for AI-driven code execution that enforces an explicit, quantitative risk budget rather than the binary allow/deny posture of typical container-based isolation.

Most AI-agent security today is exogenous: we scan skills, filter prompts, isolate sandboxes, and monitor outputs. These defenses matter, but they do not teach the agent itself how to recognize danger.
