Replicas is a background coding agent that lives in sandboxed VMs and works like a teammate: it runs codebases locally with all your dependencies and tooling, iterates until it's satisfied, and opens a PR. Delegate to it from Slack, Linear, or GitHub. Congrats on the launch, Connor Loi!

Q: Where are you hosting your sandboxed VMs and do you use Docker images or keep warm sandboxes? @connortbot (can dm too)

very cool! love to see more people building this way. been running a similar setup with openclaw — agents that live on your own machines, delegate over ssh, and handle the full dev loop. the key difference is keeping it on hardware you control vs cloud sandboxes. open source too

the sandboxed VM approach is smart. running in the actual dev environment with real deps solves a big failure mode that pure API-based agents hit constantly

worktree isolation is the easy part. cold start and secret scoping are where background agents usually get ugly once npm installs and CI creds enter the loop. are these VMs fully fresh per task, or do you keep a warm cache somewhere?

@connorbot Does this work with multi repo set ups? with isolated worktrees at the multi repo level?

Just created a PR from a github issue via a serverless background agent, and it's entirely open-source at humanlayer we have been thinking a lot about what good open-source software factory building blocks look like to push on this I built something I've wanted for a long time: a hands-outside-the-box approach of running a lightweight agent in a runtime with a virtual fs, and only using a container when necessary - faster, cheaper, etc combined with really good webhook / event bindings for GitHub, slack, and linear we built two components for it: 1. - effect-native webhook subscriptions for slack/linear/github; like the Vercel chat SDK but effect + more opinionated about software factories; handles threading & debouncing event deliveries and stuff like that 2. mentions & other events spin up our Fold harness ( think kinda like Pi in effect; fully isomorphic, runs anywhere) infra is built on Cloudflare workers and durable objects via alchemy - each thread/channel/issue/pr gets its own mailbox, subject to delivery policies (queue, debounce, batch) mailbox messages wake a fold agent session running in a Durable object, without a sandbox to start it uses cloudflare/computer for a virtual DO-backed filesystem for each issue/PR's git branch the agent can run most commands it wants against the DO's virtual filesystem and the agent can boot a container with the FS mounted into it via FUSE only when it decides it needs one to run heavier commands tools are generated from the webhook event so the agent gets tightly-scoped tools to e.g. create a pr from the issue it's on, or to list failing checks only from the PR it's bound to; plus it's easy to interleave deterministic code it has live progress updates, can react to issues in its thread, etc (linear + slack modules support their respective streaming agent activity & agent plan APIs; for github we fudge it a bit by editing issues in live time) it even has an API so agent work can be handed off to another system (e.g. a k8s cluster that has super thick sandboxes if you need > standard-4 sized-containers from cloudfalre) and that system can post back streaming updates & update the status of the agent run, so it's pretty de-coupled it's wired to automatically investigate CI failures and some other neat stuff open-source at a good example of it in action:
