The JavaScript runtime for servers and tooling. 3 topics track how coding agents behave in Node.js codebases — the failure modes, the workflows, and the configs that keep them honest.
In a 400k-line workspace, an unscoped agent burns half its context discovering packages it will never touch — then edits one it shouldn't. Run the agent from the package directory, deny writes outside it, and hand it the workspace-level commands it still needs.
The root file that keeps five agents from treating 40 packages as one big sandbox: affected-only commands, module boundaries with an owner column, and a hard rule about generated code.
Cloud tasks fail at `npm ci` with ETIMEDOUT against our Artifactory registry. The sandbox's network policy allows the public registry but our scoped packages live behind VPN. Local Codex works fine; every cloud run dies at install.
