Create a new Sandbox.

The sandbox is NOT automatically deleted. Use delete_sandbox() for cleanup, or use sandbox() for automatic cleanup with a context manager.

Optional sandbox name (auto-generated if not provided).

Timeout in seconds when waiting for ready (only used when wait_for_ready=True).

If True (default), block until sandbox is ready. If False, return immediately with status "provisioning". Use get_sandbox_status() or wait_for_sandbox() to poll for readiness.

Idle timeout in seconds. The launcher automatically stops the sandbox after this duration of inactivity. Must be a multiple of 60. 0 explicitly disables the idle stop. When omitted (None), the server applies a default of 600 seconds (10 minutes).

Seconds after the sandbox enters the stopped state before it (and its filesystem clone) are permanently deleted. Must be a multiple of 60. 0 disables stop-anchored deletion (manual cleanup required). When omitted (None), the server applies its configured default.

Number of vCPUs.

Memory in bytes.

Root filesystem capacity in bytes.

Per-sandbox proxy configuration forwarded to the server as-is. Shape matches the backend proxy_config field: {"rules": [...], "no_proxy": [...], "access_control": {"allow_list": [...]}} or {"access_control": {"deny_list": [...]}}. Use access_control.allow_list to restrict outbound HTTPS to a set of host patterns (exact domains, globs like *.example.com, IPs, CIDRs, or ~regex).
