Topic: Can Lean REPL/LeanInteract be sandboxed?


Niels Voss (Nov 29 2025 at 19:32):

I was wondering if on Linux it was possible to invoke Lean Interact or the Lean REPL in a sandbox like landrun or firejail or even docker. The use case is that we are taking user-generated natural language, feeding it to an LLM, and then running the generated Lean code, and I suspect that this is capable of arbitrary code execution.

Mathlib CI uses landrun, you should be able to use that for inspiration

I am using the Docker approach to play around with agents for autoformalization here. See in particular the Docker file.
