About npm i -g hotcell
Self-hostable sandbox SDK inspired by Cloudflare Sandbox SDK. works on any device (Mac, Linux, bare metal). super easy to use (both by human engineers and agents). you get full control over capacity/token spent per sandbox, you can default-deny egress but still allow access to LLM providers, and API keys never directly enter each sandbox (it creates per-sandbox tokens instead that die when the sandbox stops). npm i -g hotcell
