The main issue is not so much if it needs to run inside a container or not (and to be honest there are even better isolation models, why not firecracker vm). The main issue is what are you going to do with it.

It does not really matter.

IMHO, until you figure out useful ways to spend tokens to do useful tasks the runtime should be a second thought.

As far as security goes, running LLM in a container in just simply not enough. What matters is not what files it can edit on your machine but what information it can access. And the access in this case as far as these agents are concerned is basically everything. If this does not scare you you should not be thinking about containers.

Docker sandboxes uses a MicroVM as an additional isolation layer - its not just containers (as also mentioned in the nanoclaw post)
