Concrete worked example covering image strategy (with the bake-the-
claude-bottle-image-in optimization that elides 30-90s of in-VM
build), cold/warm/hot boot-to-prompt timing, standby vs ephemeral
cost breakdown, three workflow patterns, and Fly-specific gotchas
(DinD kernel requirements, the y/N preflight blocking automated
launch, pricing-may-have-moved hedge).

Argues that running claude-bottle unchanged on a remote Linux VM with
dockerd is the cheapest practical path to stronger isolation than
local Docker — preserves the v1 pipelock topology, requires zero code
changes, and shrinks the agent's blast radius from the developer
laptop to a disposable VM. Cross-references the existing
stronger-isolation-alternatives and local-vs-remote-agent-execution
notes so the research set composes cleanly.
