-kaakaa runs tool calls securely using containers and capability-based access. Tool calls have limited or no access to the filesystem and to the network. Capabilities allow network access to be controlled with fine granularity. Containers are implemented using Guix's container API.

 # The Name
 
-kaakaa (காக்கா—pronounced kah-kah) means "crow" 🐦‍⬛ in Tamil. It also evokes "kaaka" (காக்க—pronounced kah-kuh), meaning "to protect". Crows are intelligent birds, and kaakaa protects you from reckless/malicious tool use by LLMs.

+In colloquial Tamil, crows are also called "kaakaa"—which is similar to the word for shit in many European languages. Just a gentle reminder that LLMs, despite how intelligent they sometimes seem, often produce shitty code—rather like the crows that bombard you with aerial excrement when you least expect it.
