FAQ
Does Tormoni require an internet connection?
Section titled “Does Tormoni require an internet connection?”No. The sandbox is local-first. It uses no telemetry, no control plane, and nothing in it stops working with the network off. The Tormoni Cloud account is strictly opt-in for managing the records of your runs.
Why is it a helper process instead of a daemon?
Section titled “Why is it a helper process instead of a daemon?”Tormoni spawns a VM as a helper process that the CLI or the app tracks and reaps. A control socket is created in your runtime directory, so a sandbox started by the CLI is visible to the app, and vice versa, without needing a background daemon.
Does Tormoni support GPU acceleration?
Section titled “Does Tormoni support GPU acceleration?”Yes, via the --gpu flag, which provides a 3D virtio-gpu into the host renderer. However, the guest must bring its own driver, and since no measured host carries a Venus-built renderer yet, guest acceleration is currently unproven.
