 "title": "Run Claude Code on one project inside a sandbox",
 "page_title": "How to run Claude Code on one project inside a sandbox with Brig",
 "summary": "Start Claude Code in a microVM that can only see the project folder you name.",
 "who": "A developer who wants Claude Code to edit a project, but does not want it to reach the rest of their disk or keychain.",
 "problem": "A coding agent running directly on your laptop can read anything your user account can read, including credentials and other repositories.",
 "outcome": "Claude Code runs in its own sandbox against one project folder, and you can stop it or delete the sandbox when you finish.",
 "steps": [
  "`brew tap brig-sh/brig`",
  "`brew trust brig-sh/brig`",
  "`brew install --cask brig`",
  "`brig doctor`",
  "`brig run claude ~/code/demo`"
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the brig-sh/brig repository, install Brig on this Mac and run `brig doctor` to check the host. Then start a sandbox with `brig run claude <project path>` and report the output of brig doctor and whether the sandbox started. Verify that the project path is the only folder the README says is mounted at /work.",
 "agents": [
  "claude-code"
 ],
 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The project you name is mounted read-write, so the agent can change or delete any file under it, and Claude Code asks you to log in inside the sandbox.",
 "category": "Software and DevOps",
 "tags": [

 ],
 "lang": "go",
 "requirements": [
  "A Mac with Apple silicon on macOS 14 or newer, or a Linux host on x86-64 or arm64 (Intel Macs are not supported)",
  "Homebrew on macOS, or the Linux install path from brig.sh/docs/install",
  "A terminal and a project folder you want the agent to work in",
  "An Anthropic account if you want to run Claude Code inside the sandbox"
