Show HN: BoxLite - Micro-VMs as a library, a server, or a distributed service

Dorian Zhengauthor: Dorian Zhengpublished: runtime: 1 min readstatus: indexed

We're Polygala, and we believe micro-VMs are the right primitive for AI agents. They bundle everything an agent needs into one boundary: sandbox-grade isolation, near-native performance, fast boot, and a clean unit for scaling cloud resources to agents on demand.

BoxLite is a micro-VM runtime in Rust, designed to span the full range of agent deployments:

- Library - embed it in-process and ship sandboxing as a feature.
- Server - run it standalone for multi-tenant workloads.
- Distributed service - cluster it for serverless-scale execution.

One repo. Warm start around 100ms. From sandbox to serverless, from security to scale.
