Overview

Sanbox, built by Germany-based Sanlabs, gives AI agents a real security boundary instead of relying on prompts to keep them in line. Every run gets its own MicroVM with a dedicated guest kernel, explicit CPU, memory, and timeout limits, a persistent filesystem, and a default-deny network policy with explicit destination grants and private-IP blocking. From the CLI (installed via npm as @sanlabs/sanbox-cli), a terminal, a CI job, or a coding agent like Codex or Claude Code, you can fan out parallel runs — for example, four agents reviewing an acquisition's financials, contracts, market, and security posture at once — and watch live run events stream in: agent turns, tool calls, file changes, model usage, and errors. Everything about a run lives under one run ID: the input bundle, runner settings, event stream, filesystem snapshot, and outputs. Snapshots capture artifacts, agent state, and conversation history, so you can stop a sandbox, inspect the record, and resume it later exactly where it left off. Runners are model-selectable — the OpenCode runner supports multiple models today with a stable adapter contract for more — and reusable run templates pin an approved image, model, limits, and egress policy. Scoped, short-lived secrets keep long-lived credentials out of the sandbox. Deployment options include EU-managed dedicated infrastructure in Germany, your own VPC, or on-prem hardware. Pricing is not published; access is via a signup request. MCP support is not mentioned on the site.

Best Use Cases

🎯

Running untrusted or high-privilege agent workloads behind a real kernel-level boundary

⚡

Fanning out parallel agent runs (research, document review, code tasks) from CI or a coding agent

🔧

Pausing and resuming long agent jobs from saved snapshots

🚀

EU teams with data-residency requirements needing sandboxes hosted in Germany or self-hosted

Pros & Cons

✓ Pros

  • ✓Kernel-level MicroVM isolation is a real boundary, not shared-kernel containerization
  • ✓Snapshots make agent runs pausable and resumable from the exact state — inspectable mid-run
  • ✓EU data residency, on-prem, and VPC deployment options cover compliance-sensitive teams
  • ✓Live structured event stream removes the need to poll for run status
  • ✓Reusable run templates pin the approved image, model, limits, and egress policy in one place

✗ Cons

  • ✗Pricing is not published — access requires a signup and likely sales conversation
  • ✗No MCP support currently — integration is CLI, template, and run-based only
  • ✗Newer entrant; smaller ecosystem than E2B, Modal, or Daytona in adapters and community examples
  • ✗Documentation on runner adapter contracts is thin outside the OpenCode reference
  • ✗CLI-first workflow may feel heavier than one-line SDK calls for quick prototyping
