Pulumi

@pulumi.com

Pulumi is an open-source infrastructure as code platform that lets you use modern programming languages like TypeScript, Python, Go, and C# to build and deploy infrastructure on any cloud.

Every coding agent has a YOLO mode. You're probably running it daily, and prompt guardrails fail right when it matters. Engin Diri on sandboxing agents with Docker Sandboxes, plus an open-source kit preloaded with Pulumi, Terraform, and cloud CLIs for infra work.

YOLO Mode Is the Right Default. Your Laptop Is the Wrong Place for It.

Prompt guardrails fail right when coding agents get dangerous. How Docker Sandboxes make YOLO mode safe, plus a ready-made kit for infrastructure work.

esc v0.26.0 is the last standalone ESC CLI release. The repo is archived, and every command now lives under pulumi env in the Pulumi CLI. Swapping esc for pulumi env covers most of them. The ones it doesn't cover are the ones worth knowing. We documented all of them.

The Standalone ESC CLI Retired: Use pulumi env

The standalone esc CLI is archived as of v0.26.0. Every ESC command is available in the Pulumi CLI under pulumi env: one binary to install and upgrade.

A container isn't much of a security boundary: every one on a host shares the same kernel. Kubernetes Agent Sandbox gives AI agents a kernel-isolated, disposable box instead. Adam Gordon Bell deployed it on GKE with Pulumi, one sandbox per developer. Here's how it's wired together.

Terraform alternatives in 2026 split into three camps: general-purpose-language platforms, HCL-compatible forks, and cloud-specific tools. The one that fits your team increasingly depends on something most comparisons skip: how well it works with an AI coding agent in the loop.
