Container Execution Engine

Epic Description

Develop a secure, scalable container execution engine that can run untrusted Python and Bash scripts in isolated environments. Implement proper security controls, resource limiting, log collection, and cleanup mechanisms. This epic enables the core functionality of VoidRunner - safe code execution.

Acceptance Criteria

• Secure execution of Python and Bash scripts in containers
• Resource limits enforced (CPU, memory, timeout)
• Real-time log collection and streaming
• Automatic container cleanup and resource management
• Security controls prevent malicious code execution
• Error handling for failed executions

Related Issues

This epic consists of the following sub-issues:

• Docker Client Integration and Security Configuration #9: Docker Client Integration and Security Configuration
• Task Execution Workflow and State Management #10: Task Execution Workflow and State Management
• Log Collection and Real-time Streaming #11: Log Collection and Real-time Streaming
• Error Handling and Cleanup Mechanisms #12: Error Handling and Cleanup Mechanisms

Success Metrics

• Container execution under 5 seconds for cold starts
• 100% container cleanup success rate
• Zero security incidents in isolation testing
• Real-time log streaming with <100ms latency

Technical Stack

• Container Runtime: Docker with security profiles
• Security: AppArmor/seccomp profiles, non-root execution
• Queue System: Redis for task scheduling
• Logging: Real-time log collection and streaming
• Cleanup: Automated resource management

Definition of Epic Completion

• All sub-issues completed and tested
• Security testing passed with no critical vulnerabilities
• Performance benchmarks meet targets
