+
+# PR / Issue Review Workflow
+
+When given a GitHub PR or Issue URL, follow this procedure end-to-end.
+
+---
+
+## Step 0 — Determine Type
+
+Parse the URL to identify whether it is a **Pull Request** or an **Issue**.
+
+```
+https://github.com/MervinPraison/PraisonAI/pull/<NUMBER>   → PR
+https://github.com/MervinPraison/PraisonAI/issues/<NUMBER> → Issue
+```
+
+- **PR** → go to Step 1  
+- **Issue** → go to Step 8  
+
+---
+
+## Step 1 — Fetch PR Metadata
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && \
+gh pr view <NUMBER> --json title,body,author,state,additions,deletions,changedFiles,headRefName,baseRefName,labels
+```
+
+Record: title, author, branch, file count, +/- lines.
+
+---
+
+## Step 2 — Read the Full Diff
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && gh pr diff <NUMBER>
+```
+
+If the diff is very large (>500 lines), pipe through `head -500` first, then read remaining chunks.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3 — Review the Diff
+
+For each changed file, evaluate against **PraisonAI engineering principles** (from AGENTS.md):
+
+| Principle | What to Check |
+|-----------|---------------|
+| **Protocol-driven core** | No heavy implementations in `praisonaiagents/` (core SDK) |
+| **Lazy imports** | Optional deps imported inside functions, not at module level |
+| **DRY** | No code duplication; reuse existing abstractions |
+| **Naming conventions** | `add_X()`, `get_X()`, `XConfig`, `XProtocol`, `XAdapter` |
+| **Async-safe** | No blocking I/O in async context; asyncio primitives used |
+| **Multi-agent safe** | No shared mutable global state without locks |
+| **Thread safety** | Double-checked locking for lazy caches; `threading.Lock` for mutables |
+| **Security** | No hardcoded secrets; `hmac.compare_digest` for comparisons; restricted `exec()` |
+| **Backward compat** | Public API changes require deprecation cycle |
+| **Test coverage** | Tests included; TDD pattern; both unit + agentic tests |
+
+**Red flags to catch:**
+- Module-level imports of optional deps (chromadb, litellm, etc.)
+- Hardcoded credentials or `debug=True` in production paths
+- Direct string comparison for secrets (timing attacks)
+- `exec()`/`eval()` without sandbox
+- Shared mutable globals without `threading.Lock`
+- Missing error handling or swallowed exceptions
+
+---
+
+## Step 4 — Checkout and Run Tests Locally
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && git checkout main && git pull origin main
+```
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && gh pr checkout <NUMBER>
+```
+
+Run targeted tests for changed files first:
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package/src/praisonai-agents && \
+python -m pytest tests/ -x -q \
+  --ignore=tests/integration/test_whatsapp_web_real.py \
+  --ignore=tests/unit/tools/test_profiles.py \
+  --tb=short 2>&1 | tail -20
+```
+
+For PRs touching security-sensitive code, also run:
+
+```bash
+# Sandbox tests
+python -m pytest tests/unit/tools/test_python_tools_sandbox.py -v
+
+# CWE-78 env injection tests
+python -m pytest src/praisonai/tests/unit/test_cwe78_env_injection.py -v
+
+# Thread-safety tests
+python -m pytest tests/unit/test_thread_safety.py -v
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 5 — Verify No Regressions
+
+Run the full test suite:
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package/src/praisonai-agents && \
+python -m pytest tests/ -q \
+  --ignore=tests/integration/test_whatsapp_web_real.py \
+  --ignore=tests/unit/tools/test_profiles.py \
+  --tb=no 2>&1 | tail -5
+```
+
+**Acceptable result:** All tests pass, or only pre-existing flaky tests fail (e.g., `test_file_memory.py::test_memory_persistence_across_agent_instances`).
+
+**Unacceptable:** Any NEW failure introduced by the PR.
+
+---
+
+## Step 6 — Approve or Request Changes
+
+**If the PR is good:**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && \
+gh pr review <NUMBER> --approve --body "LGTM — reviewed diff, tests pass, follows PraisonAI engineering principles."
+```
+
+**If changes are needed:**
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && \
+gh pr review <NUMBER> --request-changes --body "Requesting changes: <specific feedback>"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 7 — Merge
+
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && \
+gh pr merge <NUMBER> --merge --subject "<PR title>"
+```
+
+Verify merge:
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && gh pr view <NUMBER> --json state,mergedAt
+```
+
+Then return to main:
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && git checkout main && git pull origin main
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 8 — Issue Triage (if URL is an Issue)
+
+### 8a. Fetch issue details
+
+// turbo
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && \
+gh issue view <NUMBER> --json title,body,author,state,labels,comments
+```
+
+### 8b. Classify severity
+
+| Tier | Criteria | Examples |
+|------|----------|---------|
+| **Tier 1 — Critical** | Security vuln, data loss, crash in hot path | exec() without sandbox, hardcoded secrets, unprotected globals |
+| **Tier 2 — High** | Performance regression, broken feature, wrong output | Duplicate API calls, memory leak, silent failure |
+| **Tier 3 — Medium** | DX issue, missing validation, doc gap | Bad error messages, missing CLI parity, stale docs |
+| **Tier 4 — Low** | Cosmetic, code style, minor refactor | Trailing whitespace, naming inconsistency |
+
+### 8c. Deep analysis (for Tier 1-2)
+
+1. Read ALL relevant source files end-to-end
+2. Trace the code path that the issue describes
+3. Identify root cause with file paths and line numbers
+4. Assess blast radius (what else could be affected)
+5. Determine if the issue is **actually what it claims** (re-classify if needed)
+
+### 8d. Delegate Implementation to GitHub Workflow Agents
+
+> **KEY PHILOSOPHY: We act as the Manager, GitHub Actions execute the Workflow.**
+
+**DO NOT implement the fix yourself locally.** PraisonAI uses autonomous GitHub Action workflows (such as `gemini-issue-review.yml` and `claude.yml`) to automatically resolve issues and create PRs. Your job as the local agent is to supervise, analyze gaps, and trigger these cloud agents to do the heavy lifting. If there is a gap (e.g. strict test violations), provide detailed relevant information in the PR/Issue and trigger the agents again.
+
+1. Issue the command to trigger the cloud agent on the issue:
+```bash
+cd /Users/praison/praisonai-package && \
+gh issue comment <NUMBER> --body "@gemini please review and fix this issue"
+```
+*(Note: You can use `@claude` or `@gemini` depending on preference or active bots).*
+
+2. Check the GitHub Actions logs (`gh run list`) and wait for the cloud agent to open a Pull Request (`gh pr list`).
+3. Once the cloud bot opens a Pull Request for the issue, return to **Step 1** to review the PR, test the branch locally, and merge it if it passes the checks.
+
+---
+
+## Step 9 — (Skipped) Local PR Creation
+
+> **Note:** As the local agent, you should delegate code fixes to the cloud agents. Only implement code locally and create a PR if the USER explicitly forces you to bypass the cloud agents. If forced, use standard prefixes: `fix:`, `feat:`, `security:`, `refactor:`, `docs:`, `test:`.
+
+---
+
+## Step 10 — Security-Specific Checks
+
+When reviewing security-related PRs, additionally verify:
+
+### Credentials / Secrets
+```bash
+# Check for hardcoded secrets
+grep -rn "secret\|password\|token\|api_key" --include="*.py" <changed-files> | \
+  grep -v "test_\|#\|environ\|getenv\|config"
+```
+
+### Timing Attacks
+```bash
+# Ensure hmac.compare_digest for secret comparisons
+grep -rn "==.*api_key\|==.*secret\|==.*token" --include="*.py" <changed-files>
+```
+
+### Authentication & Workflow Secrets
+When reviewing GitHub Actions workflows (especially ones using cloud actions like `claude-code-action`):
+- **OIDC Validation**: Any workflow using OIDC to authenticate with a cloud provider (e.g. AWS Bedrock for Claude, GCP for Vertex) **MUST** include `id-token: write` in the job's `permissions`. Without it, you will see `Could not fetch an OIDC token` errors.
+- **Valid PAT Usage**: When injecting tokens into workflows via `github_token:`, ensure you use `secrets.GH_TOKEN`. `secrets.PAT_TOKEN` has been known to be invalid or cause `401 Bad credentials` errors when curling GitHub resources. By design, `@copilot` mentions also strictly require `GH_TOKEN`.
+
+### Supply Chain
+```bash
+# Check dependency versions
+pip show <package-name>
+# Check for known compromised versions
+pip install <package>==999 2>&1 | grep "from versions"
+```
+
+### IoC Scanning
+```bash
+# Check for known malicious files
+find $(python -c "import site; print(site.getsitepackages()[0])") -name "<suspicious-file>" 2>/dev/null
+```
+
+---
+
+## Quick Reference — Common Commands
+
+| Action | Command |
+|--------|---------|
+| View PR | `gh pr view <N> --json title,body,state,additions,deletions` |
+| View diff | `gh pr diff <N>` |
+| Checkout PR | `gh pr checkout <N>` |
+| List open PRs | `gh pr list` |

+## Security & Credentials
+
+- **OIDC Configuration (`id-token: write`)**: Any workflow utilizing the `anthropics/claude-code-action@beta` (or similar actions requiring JWTs for AWS Bedrock/GCP Vertex) MUST define `id-token: write` under the job's `permissions` block. Missing this causes deep, opaque failures like "Could not fetch an OIDC token" paired with `Bad credentials` execution limits.
+- **Valid `github_token` Payload**: Always pass `secrets.GH_TOKEN` into `github_token` inputs rather than `secrets.PAT_TOKEN`, as the latter has historically proven invalid and caused silent 401 exceptions on curl requests behind the scenes.

+# SandlockSandbox: Kernel-Level Code Isolation
+
+SandlockSandbox provides the highest security level available for code execution on Linux systems, using kernel-level isolation via **Landlock** and **seccomp-bpf**.
+
+## 🔒 Security Features
+
+### Current Issues with Subprocess Sandbox
+- ❌ Can read arbitrary files (`/etc/passwd`, SSH keys, `.aws` credentials)
+- ❌ Can make network connections (data exfiltration)  
+- ❌ Can import dangerous Python modules (`os.system`, `subprocess`)
+- ❌ Can access `/proc`, `/sys` kernel interfaces
+- ❌ Only process-level isolation
+
+### SandlockSandbox Solutions  
+- ✅ **Landlock**: Kernel-enforced filesystem allowlisting
+- ✅ **seccomp-bpf**: System call filtering at kernel level
+- ✅ **Network isolation**: Block unauthorized connections
+- ✅ **Resource limits**: Memory, CPU, process, file descriptor limits
+- ✅ **~5ms overhead**: Faster than Docker containers
+- ✅ **No root required**: User-space security
+
+## 🚀 Installation
+
+```bash
+# Install with sandbox support
+pip install "praisonai[sandbox]"
+
+# Or install sandlock directly
+pip install sandlock
+```
+
+## 📖 Usage
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+```python
+import asyncio
+from praisonai.sandbox import SandlockSandbox
+from praisonaiagents.sandbox import ResourceLimits
+
+async def main():
+    # Create sandbox with strict security
+    sandbox = SandlockSandbox()
+    await sandbox.start()
+    
+    # Execute code with kernel-level isolation
+    result = await sandbox.execute(
+        "print('Hello from secure sandbox!')",
+        limits=ResourceLimits.minimal()  # Strict limits for untrusted code
+    )
+    
+    print(f"Output: {result.stdout}")
+    print(f"Secure: {result.metadata['landlock_enabled']}")
+    
+    await sandbox.stop()
+
+asyncio.run(main())
+```
+
+### Advanced Configuration
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents.sandbox import SandboxConfig
+from praisonai.sandbox import SandlockSandbox
+
+# Create native sandbox with specific allowed paths
+config = SandboxConfig.native(
+    writable_paths=["./workspace", "./output"],
+    network=False,  # Block all network access
+)
+
+sandbox = SandlockSandbox(config)
+```
+
+### Resource Limits
+
+```python
+from praisonaiagents.sandbox import ResourceLimits
+
+# Minimal limits for untrusted code
+limits = ResourceLimits.minimal()  # 128MB, 5 processes, 30s timeout
+
+# Standard limits
+limits = ResourceLimits.standard()  # 512MB, 10 processes, 60s timeout
+
+# Custom limits
+limits = ResourceLimits(
+    memory_mb=256,
+    max_processes=3,
+    timeout_seconds=15,
+    network_enabled=False,
+)
+```
+
+## 🛡️ Security Guarantees
+
+### Filesystem Isolation (Landlock)
+```python
+# ✅ Allowed: Read Python libraries
+# ✅ Allowed: Write to workspace directory  
+# ❌ Blocked: Read /etc/passwd, ~/.ssh, ~/.aws
+# ❌ Blocked: Write to system directories
+
+await sandbox.execute("""
+# This will be blocked at kernel level
+with open('/etc/passwd', 'r') as f:
+    print(f.read())
+""")
+```
+
+### Network Isolation
+```python
+# ❌ Blocked: All network connections when network=False
+await sandbox.execute("""
+import socket
+s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
+s.connect(('evil.com', 80))  # Blocked by kernel
+""")
+```
+
+### System Call Filtering (seccomp-bpf)
+```python
+# ❌ Blocked: Dangerous system calls
+await sandbox.execute("""
+import subprocess
+subprocess.run(['rm', '-rf', '/'])  # Blocked by seccomp
+""")
+```
+
+## 🔄 Integration with Existing Code
+
+SandlockSandbox implements the same `SandboxProtocol` as other sandbox types, making it a drop-in replacement:
+
+```python
+from praisonai.sandbox import SubprocessSandbox, SandlockSandbox
+
+# Easy migration - same API
+# old_sandbox = SubprocessSandbox()
+new_sandbox = SandlockSandbox()  # Much more secure!
+
+# All methods work the same
+result = await new_sandbox.execute("print('hello')")
+result = await new_sandbox.run_command(["python", "--version"])
+await new_sandbox.write_file("test.txt", "content")
+content = await new_sandbox.read_file("test.txt")
+```
+
+## 🎯 Use Cases
+
+### 1. Agent Code Execution
+```python
+from praisonaiagents import Agent
+from praisonai.sandbox import SandlockSandbox
+
+# Secure agent that can execute user/LLM-generated code
+agent = Agent(
+    name="code_agent",
+    instructions="Execute code securely",
+    execution=ExecutionConfig(
+        code_execution=True,
+        sandbox=SandlockSandbox(),  # Kernel-level isolation
+    )
+)
+```
+
+### 2. Untrusted Code Evaluation
+```python
+async def evaluate_untrusted_code(user_code: str):
+    sandbox = SandlockSandbox()
+    await sandbox.start()
+    
+    # User code cannot escape sandbox
+    result = await sandbox.execute(
+        user_code,
+        limits=ResourceLimits.minimal(),  # Strict limits
+    )
+    
+    return result.success, result.output
+```
+
+### 3. Multi-Tenant Code Runner
+```python
+async def run_tenant_code(tenant_id: str, code: str):
+    # Each tenant gets isolated workspace
+    config = SandboxConfig.native(
+        writable_paths=[f"./tenants/{tenant_id}"],
+        network=False,
+    )
+    
+    sandbox = SandlockSandbox(config)
+    return await sandbox.execute(code)
+```
+
+## ⚡ Performance
+
+| Feature | SubprocessSandbox | SandlockSandbox | Docker |
+|---------|------------------|-----------------|--------|
+| Startup | ~1ms | ~5ms | ~100ms |
+| Security | ⚠️ Process-only | ✅ Kernel-level | ✅ Kernel-level |
+| Root Required | ❌ No | ❌ No | ✅ Yes (usually) |
+| Dependencies | None | sandlock | Docker daemon |
+
+## 🐛 Troubleshooting
+
+### ImportError: No module named 'sandlock'
+```bash
+pip install "praisonai[sandbox]"
+# or
+pip install sandlock
+```
+
+### Landlock not supported
+```python
+from praisonai.sandbox import SandlockSandbox
+
+sandbox = SandlockSandbox()
+if not sandbox.is_available:
+    print("Landlock not supported - using fallback")
+    # Automatically falls back to SubprocessSandbox
+```
+
+### Permission denied errors
+```python
+# Make sure writable paths exist and are accessible
+config = SandboxConfig.native(
+    writable_paths=["/absolute/path/to/workspace"],  # Must be absolute
+    network=False,
+)
+```
+
+## 🏗️ Architecture
+
+SandlockSandbox follows PraisonAI's protocol-driven design:
+
+- **Core SDK** (`praisonaiagents`): Contains only `SandboxProtocol`
+- **Wrapper** (`praisonai`): Contains `SandlockSandbox` implementation
+- **Optional dependency**: `sandlock` is lazy-loaded, won't slow imports
+
+This maintains the clean separation between lightweight protocols and heavy implementations.
+
+## 🤝 Contributing
+
+The SandlockSandbox implementation lives in:
+- Implementation: `src/praisonai/praisonai/sandbox/sandlock.py`
+- Tests: `src/praisonai/tests/unit/sandbox/test_sandlock_sandbox.py`  
+- Protocol: `src/praisonai-agents/praisonaiagents/sandbox/protocols.py`
+
+When contributing:
+1. Follow the existing `SandboxProtocol` interface
+2. Add comprehensive tests for security features
+3. Ensure graceful fallback when sandlock unavailable
+4. Update documentation with new capabilities
