Ready to deploy? Jump to the installation comparison, or go straight to the Docker guide / native guide.
What if you could:
Hand off entire dev cycles. Point an agent at a GitHub issue, let it write code, test by launching desktop applications, and open a PR when tests pass. You review the diff, not the process.
Run multi-day operations unattended. Give an agent SSH access to your home GPU through a VPN. It reads Nvidia docs, sets up training, fine-tunes models while you sleep.
Keep sensitive data local. Analyze your sequenced DNA against scientific literature. Local inference, isolated containers, nothing leaves your machines.
- Multi-Runtime Support: Run Claude Code, OpenCode, or Amp agents in the same infrastructure
- Mission Control: Start, stop, and monitor agents remotely with real-time streaming
- Isolated Workspaces: Containerized Linux environments (systemd-nspawn) with per-mission directories
- Git-backed Library: Skills, tools, rules, agents, and MCPs versioned in a single repo
- Telegram Integration: Connect bots to missions for chat-based AI assistants with auto-mission creation per chat
- Automations: Schedule recurring agent runs with cron-like triggers
- Model Routing: Provider fallback chains with health checks and rate-limit handling
- MCP Registry (optional): Extra tool servers (desktop/playwright/etc.) when needed
- OpenAI-compatible Proxy Queue Mode: Optional deferred execution for
/v1/chat/completionswhen all routed providers are temporarily rate-limited - Multi-platform: Web dashboard (Next.js) and iOS app (SwiftUI) with Picture-in-Picture
sandboxed.sh orchestrates multiple AI coding agent runtimes:
- Claude Code: Anthropic's
official coding agent with native skills support (
.claude/skills/) - OpenCode: Open-source alternative via oh-my-opencode
- Amp: Sourcegraph's frontier coding agent with multi-model support
Each runtime executes inside isolated workspaces, so bash commands and file operations are scoped correctly. sandboxed.sh handles orchestration, workspace isolation, and Library-based configuration management.
Real-time monitoring with CPU, memory, network graphs and mission timeline
Git-backed Library with skills, commands, rules, and inline editing

| Docker (recommended) | Native (bare metal) | |
|---|---|---|
| Best for | Getting started, macOS users, quick deployment | Production servers, maximum performance |
| Platform | Any OS with Docker | Ubuntu 24.04 LTS |
| Setup time | ~5 minutes | ~30 minutes |
| Container workspaces | Yes (with privileged: true) |
Yes (native systemd-nspawn) |
| Desktop automation | Yes (headless Xvfb inside Docker) | Yes (native X11 or Xvfb) |
| Performance | Good (slight overhead on macOS) | Best (native Linux) |
| Updates | docker compose pull / rebuild |
Git pull + cargo build, or one-click from dashboard |
git clone https://github.com/Th0rgal/sandboxed.sh.git
cd sandboxed.sh
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your settings
docker compose up -dOpen http://localhost:3000 โ that's it.
For container workspace isolation (recommended), uncomment privileged: true in
docker-compose.yml.
For production servers running Ubuntu 24.04 with maximum performance and native systemd-nspawn isolation.

Enable pre-push formatting checks to catch CI failures locally:
git config core.hooksPath .githooksThis runs cargo fmt --check before each push. If formatting issues are found,
run cargo fmt --all to fix them.
