We just launched a secure virtual desktop made specifically for LLM-powered computer use. The difference from Claude computer use is that: - It works with any LLM - It has high level of security, because each sandbox instance is isolated from the others, and it's isolated from user's os. The E2B sandbox in general can be customized with any dependencies or pre-installed packages. Some features: - Python or JS/TS version - Allows streaming of the desktop screen - Supports mouse & keyboard control, opening files, screenshots, running bash and PyAutoGUI commands & more. Here is the Desktop Sandbox repo: https://github.com/e2b-dev/desktop We also added an example of computer use, using the E2B Desktop Sandbox: https://github.com/e2b-dev/secure-computer-use I will be happy to hear any feedback if you want to check it out.
