Show HN: LabLoop – isolated infrastructure for LLM-driven scientific experiments
Lab Loop™: a research automation environment for empirical work Hypotheses, designed experiments, evidence and conclusions as durable state — built for researchers, applications and AI agents across any empirical domain. From ml-scientist/: uv sync --frozen ./labloop start all # or ./run-ml-episteme.sh for a single server ./labloop status Ports are defined in ports.env (38050/38060/38070/38080/38090). ml-labloop (the lab VM) Requires KVM/libvirt on a Linux host. See ml-labloop/README.md for the full workflow including publishing VM images.

Lab Loop™: a research automation environment for empirical work Hypotheses, designed experiments, evidence and conclusions as durable state — built for researchers, applications and AI agents across any empirical domain. Two projects, side by side. Each folder is self-contained and usable on its own. ml-scientist/ the five ml-* MCP servers (agora, arete, zetesis, episteme, anamnesis) — run them anywhere, no VM needed ml-labloop/ the KVM isolation harness — builds a per-user VM where those services run in a trusted zone, sealed off from a hostile experiment zone ml-scientist (standalone) No VM required. From ml-scientist/: uv sync --frozen ./labloop start all # or ./run-ml-episteme.sh for a single server ./labloop status Ports are defined in ports.env (38050/38060/38070/38080/38090).
