boat Adds Cross-Size VM Resizing

boat now lets developers stop a VM sandbox and resume or fork it at another machine size while preserving filesystem state. This gives agent workloads a practical way to scale up for heavy tasks and scale down to reduce costs.

// ANALYSIS

This is a useful infrastructure upgrade because sandbox capacity can now follow workload demand without rebuilding environments.

  • –Resume and fork support small, default, large, and xlarge machine sizes
  • –Files, installed packages, and snapshots persist across resizing
  • –Resizing is snapshot-based, so running processes and memory do not survive
  • –CPU and RAM remain coupled to fixed machine tiers rather than independently configurable
  • –The feature strengthens boat’s fit for persistent coding agents and repeatable build environments
