Who offers it
Part of Ways to drive it, which explains why it matters.
Fully: Agent 37, Blaxel, Boat, boxd, Daytona, E2B, InstaBox, Lizard, Modal, Morph, Runtime, Sandboxer, Sprites, Tensorlake and Vercel Sandbox. With a catch: Cloudflare Sandbox.
- Agent 37Yes
`npx agent37` builds images, sets up SSH, opens tunnels and manages crons.
docs-confirmed “The supported path is the Agent37 CLI:” Source
- BlaxelYes
The `bl` CLI manages sandboxes, agents, MCP servers and jobs.
docs-confirmed “Install the Blaxel CLI (bl) to manage sandboxes, agents, MCP servers, jobs, and other resources from your terminal” Source
- BoatYes
One installer for macOS, Linux and Windows, then `boat` commands.
docs-confirmed “Install the boat CLI on macOS, Linux or Windows” Source
- boxdYes
The CLI is the primary surface and also ships pre-authenticated inside every machine.
docs-confirmed “Install the boxd CLI and get your terminal talking to your machines.” Source
- DaytonaYes
The CLI covers sandbox create, exec, SSH, snapshots and MCP setup.
docs-confirmed “Install the Daytona CLI to manage the MCP server.” Source
- E2BYes
`@e2b/cli` builds templates and creates sandboxes.
docs-confirmed “You can install E2B CLI using the following command:” Source
- InstaBoxYes
Installed by `npx instabox@latest` or the install script.
docs-confirmed “It signs you in with a device code, starts a new machine, installs the `instabox` CLI” Source
- LizardYes
`lizard` covers sandboxes, deploys, keys and agents.
docs-confirmed “Alias: `lizard sb`.” Source
- ModalYes
The `modal` CLI deploys apps and `modal shell` attaches to a running sandbox.
docs-confirmed “Connect to a running Sandbox by ID: modal shell sb-abc123xyz” Source
- MorphYes
Installing the Python package also installs the CLI and the Volumes helpers.
docs-confirmed “Once installed, the CLI and the first-party Volumes helpers are automatically available in your environment:” Source
- RuntimeYes
`npx withruntime` runs every product and saves a browser-approved connection.
docs-confirmed “The CLI runs every Runtime Cloud product from a terminal or a script.” Source
- SandboxerYes
One static binary for Linux, macOS and Windows.
docs-confirmed “`sbx` is one static binary for Linux, macOS and Windows.” Source
- SpritesYes
The `sprite` CLI covers create, exec, console, checkpoint, restore and proxy.
docs-confirmed “sprite create - Create a new sprite” Source
- TensorlakeYes
`tl` manages sandboxes, projects and contexts.
docs-confirmed “This installs the `tl` CLI, which you can use to manage sandboxes and other resources from the command line.” Source
`sandbox` (alias `sbx`) creates sandboxes and connects to them.
docs-confirmed “Use the Sandbox CLI to run coding agents, manage sandboxes, execute commands, and copy files from your terminal.” Source
- Cloudflare SandboxWith a catch
The catch: The only command-line tool is Wrangler, which deploys the Worker and can open a shell; it does not create or manage sandboxes.
Wrangler covers deploy, tail, instances and SSH, but sandbox lifecycle lives in Worker code.
docs-confirmed “`wrangler containers ssh <INSTANCE_ID>`” Source
