Wait, does lima do isolation in a macos context too?

It looks like linux vms, which apple's container-cli (among others) covers at a basic level.

I'd like apple to start providing macOS images that weren't the whole OS.. unless sandbox-exec/libsandbox have affordance for something close enough?

You can basically ask claude/chatgpt to write its jail (dockerfile) and then run that via `container` without installing anything on macos outside the container it builds (IIRC). Even the container-cli will use a container to build your container..
