Vercel Sandboxes are now generally available
Vercel Sandboxes are now generally available, providing an ephemeral compute primitive for safely executing untrusted code.
It lets teams run AI agent-generated outputs, unverified user uploads, and third-party code without exposing production systems.
Each sandbox runs inside Firecracker microVMs, isolated from your infrastructure, so code running in a sandbox is blocked from accessing environment variables, database connections, and cloud resources.
Sandboxes are in production use by teams including v0, Blackbox AI and RooCode.
To bootstrap a simple Node.js application that creates a Vercel sandbox, use the code below:
import { Sandbox } from '@vercel/sandbox';
const sandbox = await Sandbox.create();
await sandbox.runCommand({ cmd: 'node', args: ["-e", 'console.log("Hello from Vercel Sandbox!")'], stdout: process.stdout,});
await sandbox.stop();Or get started with the CLI by opening an interactive shell:
npx sandbox create --connectExplore the documentation to get started, and check out the open-source SDK and CLI.
