Should You Use a Sandbox for Your Agent? | Max Agency #aidesign #aiinfrastructure

Florian Juengermann, Co-Founder and CTO of Listen Labs, on why sandboxes made for local dev break down fast when you add an agent. If your API key lives in the environment, one rogue prompt is all it takes to expose it. Proxying requests through your own server sounds like a clean fix — but in practice, deployment platforms flag the traffic as suspicious and block it. The tooling just isn't there yet, and it shows. If you're building agents for production, your sandbox strategy needs a rethink. This clip is from Max Agency, a #podcast about how the best AI agents are actually being built. Hosted by Harrison Chase, CEO of LangChain, each episode goes deep with the builders designing, deploying, and learning from real agent systems in the wild. From architecture decisions to evals, tooling, and failure modes, Max Agency is for people who want to understand what it really takes to build useful agents. #agentops
