PMG Sandbox Profiles

This directory contains built-in sandbox policies for PMG package managers.

Available Profiles

npm-restrictive

Restrictive policy for the npm ecosystem (npm, pnpm, yarn, bun).

pypi-restrictive

Restrictive policy for the PyPI ecosystem (pip, pip3, pipx, poetry, uv, uvx).

go

Policy for the Go module ecosystem (go). Standalone profile: Go has a single package manager, so there is no shared base to inherit from.

Custom Policies

You can create custom sandbox policies by:

1. Copying one of the built-in profiles
2. Modifying the rules to suit your needs
3. Referencing the custom profile in your PMG config:

sandbox:
  enabled: true
  policies:
    npm:
      enabled: true
      profile: /path/to/custom-npm-policy.yml

Policy Schema

See the Policy Schema Documentation for details on the YAML structure.

Supported Variables

• ${HOME}: User home directory
• ${CWD}: Current working directory
• ${TMPDIR}: Temporary directory

Policy Enforcement

All policy violations will block execution. This provides defense-in-depth protection against malicious install scripts and supply chain attacks.
