Help me explore this task: Run each coding agent session in a cgroup that is killed on completion. My context: [describe your situation] Inputs I can provide: [files, links or sample data] Desired result: [define what success looks like] First ask for missing requirements and explain which tools or access you need. Propose a small, reversible trial. Do not invent missing facts or claim actions you have not completed. Ask before publishing, spending money, contacting anyone, or changing existing data. Report the result, evidence and limitations so I can review them.
