 **Hardened autonomous agent infrastructure. Careful — you might get stung.**
 
 Hornet is an open framework for running always-on AI agents that support software teams — coding agents, automated SREs, QA bots, monitoring, triage, and more. Agents run as isolated Linux processes with defense-in-depth security. Hornet assumes the worst: that an agent *will* be prompt-injected, and builds kernel-level walls that hold even when the LLM is fully compromised.
 
+**Built for Linux.** Hornet uses kernel-level features (iptables, `/proc` hidepid, Unix users) that don't exist on macOS or Windows. Every PR is integration-tested on fresh **Ubuntu 24.04** and **Arch Linux** droplets.

 Every AI agent framework gives the model shell access and hopes for the best. Hornet doesn't hope — it enforces:

 Agents work on real files in real repos — no sandbox friction. They make real git branches, run real tests, and push real PRs. But they can't exfiltrate data, escalate privileges, or phone home.
