Sandbox

Watch your agent work in real-time. Browse workspace files, monitor activity, and manage workflows — all from the Sandbox tab.

What is the Sandbox?#

The Sandbox is your window into your agent's VM. It shows the files your agent creates and modifies, a live activity feed of filesystem changes, and gives you access to the workflow builder and execution history. Access it from the Sandbox tab in the dashboard.

📁

Files

Browse your agent's workspace filesystem in real-time. Expand directories, click files to preview, and see file sizes.

Workflows

Create, manage, and run automated multi-step workflows. Build from scratch or use templates.

📋

Executions

Track workflow run history with step-by-step results, status indicators, and error details.

Files Tab#

The Files tab shows your agent's workspace as a live, expandable file tree. As your agent creates, modifies, or deletes files, the tree updates automatically. Click any file to preview its contents in the built-in viewer.

File Tree#

The left panel shows your agent's workspace directory structure. Click folders to expand them and click files to open them in the viewer. File sizes are displayed next to each file name so you can quickly gauge content at a glance.

File Viewer#

When you select a file, it opens in the viewer panel with syntax-appropriate formatting. The viewer shows the file path, detected language, and the full file content. Close the viewer by clicking the X button in the top-right corner.

Activity Feed#

The activity feed (below the viewer on desktop, or in its own tab on mobile) shows real-time filesystem events. Each event includes a timestamp, event type, and the affected file path.

Event TypeColorDescription
CreatedGreenA new file or directory was created
ModifiedAmberAn existing file was updated
DeletedRedA file or directory was removed

Auto-Refresh#

By default, the Sandbox polls your agent's workspace every 3 seconds. You can toggle auto-refresh on or off using the Auto button in the top-right corner. The manual Refresh button fetches the latest state immediately.

💡

Performance

Auto-refresh only polls when the Sandbox tab is active. Switching to another dashboard tab pauses polling automatically, so there's no unnecessary network traffic.

Requirements#

The Sandbox requires your agent to be online and running a recent bridge version that supports the workspace file API.

⚠️

Rebuild Required

If you see a "Rebuild Required" message, your agent was deployed before the Sandbox feature was available. Go to Settings and click Rebuild Agent to update. Your configs, skills, memories, and chat history are all preserved — only the VM is recreated.

Workflows & Executions

The Workflows and Executions sub-tabs within the Sandbox let you build automated workflows and track their execution history. See the full Workflows documentation for details.
