| description | Prepare reusable Daytona sandbox sessions for isolated evals, debugging, or manual command execution. |
Use this when a one-shot ralph-town run -- <command> is not enough
and you need to keep a sandbox around for debugging or repeated
commands.
# Verify the reusable snapshot first
ralph-town sandbox preflight
# Create a sandbox
ralph-town sandbox create --snapshot ralph-town-dev --json
# Get SSH access
ralph-town sandbox ssh <sandbox-id> --show-secrets
# Connect
ssh <token>@ssh.app.daytona.io
# Delete when done
ralph-town sandbox delete <sandbox-id>
Prefer sandbox-scoped credentials when a remote process needs access to GitHub or model APIs:
ralph-town sandbox create \
--snapshot ralph-town-dev \
--env "SANDBOX_GH_TOKEN=$SANDBOX_GH_TOKEN" \
--env "SANDBOX_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=$SANDBOX_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"
Ralph-Town forwards these into the sandbox as the names common tools expect:
SANDBOX_GH_TOKEN -> GH_TOKENSANDBOX_ANTHROPIC_API_KEY -> ANTHROPIC_API_KEYGITHUB_PAT is only a deprecated compatibility alias for
SANDBOX_GH_TOKEN.
