Safe agent sessions

Glasswarp gives an agent eyes and hands on a Windows PC you own. You supply the brain. Treat full desktop control as powerful — start small, watch it, then open the throttle. Glasswarp handles session controls (consent, on-screen indicator, kill switch, audit, Live View). Your agent code handles what it’s allowed to do. See also: Safety and consent · Live View

Checklist

On the Glasswarp side

Use a dedicated rig when you can — not your everyday PC
Turn API access on only when you need it (Console → Rigs)
Scope API keys to one rig when possible
Keep Live View open on first runs; kill from Console if needed
Always end_session when finished

In your agent code

Ask a human before delete, send, purchase, install, or security changes
Allowlist apps the agent may launch
Set a max steps / max minutes budget
Don’t put passwords or secrets in prompts
Log what the agent is about to do

Simple split

Glasswarp	Your agent
Consent, indicator, kill, audit, Live View	Approvals, allowlists, budgets, prompts

You need both.

Patterns

Watch first. Open Live View (or the live_view_hitl template) before full autonomy. Confirm risky acts.

def maybe_act(gw, sid, action):
    if action.get("risk") in ("delete", "send", "purchase", "install"):
        if not human_approved(action):
            return
    apply_action(gw, sid, action)

Budget + always clean up.

MAX_STEPS = 40
session = gw.create_session(rig_id=rig.id, mode="desktop")
sid = session.session_id
try:
    for step in range(MAX_STEPS):
        obs = gw.observe(sid, max_width=1280, mark=True)
        action = decide(obs)
        if action is None or action.get("type") == "done":
            break
        maybe_act(gw, sid, action)
finally:
    gw.end_session(sid)

Console

Action	Where
API access on/off	Console → Rigs
Keys	Console → API Keys
Watch / kill	Console → Sessions

In our examples

Helpers live in sdk/python/examples/safe_session.py (budgets, intent logs, allowlist, optional REQUIRE_CONFIRM=1). Templates and demos use them. Long showcases (Paint / Minesweeper) stay unattended by default — set REQUIRE_CONFIRM=1 if you want prompts.

export REQUIRE_CONFIRM=1
export MAX_STEPS=40
export ALLOWED_APPS=notepad.exe,mspaint.exe,chrome.exe
