Claude Cage isolates Claude in a local VM to stop leaks
What is Claude-Cage?
Claude Cage is a lightweight virtual machine that runs Claude in an isolated environment, preventing any network traffic from leaking to your host. It works on macOS, Windows and Linux, and lets you manage multiple Claude accounts, proxy settings and remote deployments from a single desktop app.
Who it is for
If you use Anthropic’s Claude and worry about account bans or data exposure, Cage lets you keep your conversations and code generation safely sandboxed.
