Agent Sandbox

Python SDK Reference

This module provides the SandboxClient for interacting with the Agentic Sandbox. It handles lifecycle management (claiming, waiting) and interaction (execution, file I/O) via the Sandbox resource handle.

SandboxClient Objects

class SandboxClient(Generic[T])

A registry-based client for managing Sandbox lifecycles. Tracks all active handles to ensure flat code structure and safe cleanup.

sandbox_class

type: ignore

__init__

def __init__(connection_config: SandboxConnectionConfig | None = None,
             tracer_config: SandboxTracerConfig | None = None,
             cleanup: bool = False)

Initializes the SandboxClient.

Arguments:

• connection_config - Configuration for connecting to the sandboxes. Defaults to SandboxLocalTunnelConnectionConfig() which uses kubectl port-forwarding. Can also be SandboxDirectConnectionConfig or SandboxGatewayConnectionConfig.
• tracer_config - Configuration for OpenTelemetry tracing. Defaults to an empty SandboxTracerConfig (tracing disabled).
• cleanup - If True, registers an atexit hook to automatically delete all tracked sandboxes when the program terminates. Defaults to False.

create_sandbox

def create_sandbox(warmpool: str,
                   namespace: str = "default",
                   sandbox_ready_timeout: int = 180,
                   labels: dict[str, str] | None = None,
                   *,
                   shutdown_after_seconds: int | None = None,
                   volume_claim_templates: list[dict] | None = None,
                   pod_labels: dict[str, str] | None = None,
                   pod_annotations: dict[str, str] | None = None) -> T

Provisions new Sandbox claim and returns a Sandbox handle which tracks the underlying infrastructure.

Arguments:

• warmpool - Name of the SandboxWarmPool to use.
• namespace - Kubernetes namespace for the claim.
• sandbox_ready_timeout - Seconds to wait for the sandbox to be ready.
• labels - Optional Kubernetes labels to attach to the claim object (SandboxClaim.metadata.labels).
• shutdown_after_seconds - Optional TTL in seconds. When set, the claim’s spec.lifecycle is populated with a shutdownTime of now + shutdown_after_seconds (UTC) and a shutdownPolicy of "Delete", so the controller auto-deletes the claim on expiry. Must be a positive integer.
• volume_claim_templates - Optional list of volume claim templates to override/merge with the sandbox template.
• pod_labels - Optional labels stamped onto the running Sandbox Pod via spec.additionalPodMetadata.labels. Unlike labels (which land on the claim object), these are readable from inside the sandbox through the Downward API.
• pod_annotations - Optional annotations stamped onto the running Sandbox Pod via spec.additionalPodMetadata.annotations.

Example:

client = SandboxClient() sandbox = client.create_sandbox(warmpool=“python-sandbox-pool”) sandbox.commands.run(“echo ‘Hello World’”)

get_sandbox

def get_sandbox(claim_name: str,
                namespace: str = "default",
                resolve_timeout: int = 30) -> T

Retrieves an existing sandbox handle given a sandbox claim name. If the handle is closed or missing, it re-attaches to the infrastructure.

Arguments:

• claim_name - Name of the SandboxClaim to attach to.
• namespace - Kubernetes namespace the claim lives in.
• resolve_timeout - Seconds to wait while resolving the sandbox name from the claim status.

Example:

client = SandboxClient() sandbox = client.get_sandbox( … “sandbox-claim-1234abcd”, … ) sandbox.commands.run(“ls -la”)

list_active_sandboxes

def list_active_sandboxes() -> List[Tuple[str, str]]

Returns a list of tuples containing (namespace, claim_name) currently managed by this client.

Example:

client = SandboxClient() client.create_sandbox(“python-sandbox-pool”) print(client.list_active_sandboxes()) [(‘default’, ‘sandbox-claim-1234abcd’)]

list_all_sandboxes

def list_all_sandboxes(namespace: str = "default",
                       label_selector: str | None = None) -> List[str]

Lists all SandboxClaim names currently existing in the Kubernetes cluster for the given namespace.

Arguments:

• namespace - Kubernetes namespace to list claims in.
• label_selector - Optional Kubernetes label selector string (e.g. "app=myapp"). When set, only claims matching the selector are returned.

Example:

client = SandboxClient() print(client.list_all_sandboxes(namespace=“default”)) [‘sandbox-claim-1234abcd’, ‘sandbox-claim-5678efgh’]

delete_sandbox

def delete_sandbox(claim_name: str, namespace: str = "default")

Stops the client side connection and deletes the Kubernetes resources.

Example:

client = SandboxClient() sandbox = client.create_sandbox(“python-sandbox-pool”) client.delete_sandbox(sandbox.claim_name)

delete_all

def delete_all()

Cleanup all tracked sandboxes managed by this client.

Example:

client = SandboxClient() client.create_sandbox(“python-sandbox-pool”) client.create_sandbox(“python-sandbox-pool”) client.delete_all()

get_sandbox_claim_warmpool_name

def get_sandbox_claim_warmpool_name(claim_name: str, namespace: str) -> str

Get warmpool name of a sandbox claim.

ExecutionResult Objects

class ExecutionResult(BaseModel)

A structured object for holding the result of a command execution.

stdout

Standard output from the command.

stderr

Standard error from the command.

exit_code

Exit code of the command.

FileEntry Objects

class FileEntry(BaseModel)

Represents a file or directory entry in the sandbox.

name

Name of the file.

size

Size of the file in bytes.

type

Type of the entry (file or directory).

mod_time

Last modification time of the file. (POSIX timestamp)

SandboxDirectConnectionConfig Objects

class SandboxDirectConnectionConfig(BaseModel)

Configuration for connecting directly to a Sandbox URL.

api_url

Direct URL to the router.

Port the sandbox container listens on.

SandboxGatewayConnectionConfig Objects

class SandboxGatewayConnectionConfig(BaseModel)

Configuration for connecting via Kubernetes Gateway API.

gateway_name

Name of the Gateway resource.

gateway_namespace

Namespace where the Gateway resource resides.
