Why don't Claude Code & other AI agents offer an option to make a sound or trigger a system notification whenever they prompt for approval? I've looked into setting this up, and it seems like I'd have to wire up a script that scrapes terminal output for an approval request. Codex has had a feature request open for a while: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/3052
There's a bug in that it can't output smart quotes “like this”
Sonnet, Opus et al think they output it but something in the pipeline is rewriting it

Try it in Claude Code and you'll see what I mean! Very weird
It just got added to Homebrew:
brew install sandvault
Or clodpod [1] for a VM-based solutionOr you can just mount the socket and call docker from within docker.
> Mounting the Docker socket grants the agent full access to your Docker daemon, which has root-level privileges on your system. The agent can start or stop any container, access volumes, and potentially escape the sandbox. Only use this option when you fully trust the code the agent is working with.

We have an updated version of Sandboxes coming out soon that uses MicroVM isolation to solve this exact problem. This next version will let your agent access a Docker instance within the MicroVM, therefore allowing you to do this securely.
