I've been documenting the evolution of sandbox_exec into something more general. This post covers Sandlock v1.4.0 — the point where it became a proper multi-layer security system rather than a clever wrapper.
Update 2026-03-09: sandbox_exec has since evolved into Sandlock — a modular, full-stack sandbox with strict mode, language-level sandboxes (Python/JS), a source scanner, and LD_PRELOAD hooks. See Sandlock v1.4: From Single File to Full-Stack Sandbox and the GitHub repo.
