Score: 7.3/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 7)

Autolang is a lightweight, statically-typed scripting language with a custom VM designed for sandboxed execution of AI-generated code. It solves the problem of safely running untrusted AI scripts by providing a minimal runtime where only explicitly registered host functions can be called, with features like opcode limiting and per-library permissions. This approach offers a practical alternative to heavy container-based isolation for multi-agent systems.
