Show HN: Armorer – A secure local control plane for AI agents

Hey HN,

I built Armorer because I was tired of two things: 1. The absolute "dependency hell" of setting up new AI agents (Codex, OpenClaw, etc.). 2. The security risk of giving powerful local agents broad access to my host machine.

Armorer is a secure local control plane that manages the lifecycle of your agents. It uses Docker for true process isolation and provides a unified UI/CLI for monitoring and job tracking.

One feature I’m particularly excited about: you can point an existing coding agent at the Armorer repo, and it will autonomously install and configure the entire stack for you securely.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the architecture and how you're handling agent security locally.
