## What it does

The skill hands your agent the Bailian control plane through `bl sandbox` commands. Listing instances, creating them, connecting, pausing, resuming, deleting — all of it goes over an E2B-compatible REST API. No E2B SDK and no E2B API key: authentication uses the Bailian API Key as a Bearer token.

Inside you get an intent-to-command table and a reference with exact flags. Templates have their own family: `bl sandbox template list`, `create`, `update`, `build-status`, `delete`. Built-in base images come from `bl sandbox official-images`, which runs offline without authentication. A local file for template mounts goes up through `bl sandbox file upload`.

The service currently supports `cn-beijing` and needs prior Sandbox SLR authorization. Base URL resolves through `--base-url`, then `DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL`, then the profile `base_url`. Without one, the workspace comes from `--workspace-id`, `BAILIAN_WORKSPACE_ID`, or a configured `workspace_id`. Deleting an instance or template is high-risk: the shared protocol makes you show the target and wait for explicit confirmation before `--yes`. Connection credentials stay redacted unless you pass `--show-credentials`, so keep those tokens out of chat logs and committed files.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add modelstudioai/cli --skill bailian-sandbox -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/bailian-sandbox/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/bailian-sandbox/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add modelstudioai/cli --skill bailian-sandbox -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/bailian-sandbox/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add modelstudioai/cli --skill bailian-sandbox -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/bailian-sandbox/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install modelstudioai/cli bailian-sandbox
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/bailian-sandbox/SKILL.md`

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add modelstudioai/cli --skill bailian-sandbox -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/modelstudioai/cli --path skills/bailian-sandbox
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/bailian-sandbox/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add modelstudioai/cli --skill bailian-sandbox -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/modelstudioai/cli/tree/HEAD/skills/bailian-sandbox/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- spin up a Bailian sandbox and grab its id
- list running sandbox instances
- pause an instance and bring it back later
- upload a local file to mount into a template
- check template build status after submitting

## Example prompts
- list my Bailian sandboxes
- create an instance from a built-in image and print its id
- pause the sandbox, then resume it

# Bailian Sandbox (`bl sandbox`)

Before running `bl`, read the shared [bailian-protocol](../bailian-protocol/SKILL.md) for consent, high-risk confirmation, version checks, call attribution, authentication, and error handling. If it is missing, stop execution and prompt the user to install the full family with `bl skill init`. Examples in `reference/` stay bare; wrap with Call attribution when running.

**Call attribution:** Examples below and in `reference/` stay bare `bl …`. When running a command, wrap it with [`bailian-protocol` → Call attribution](../bailian-protocol/SKILL.md#call-attribution-mandatory-for-every-agent-bl-command) (bash or PowerShell). One sample for this skill (`BAILIAN_SKILL_NAME=bailian-sandbox`; replace `codex` with this host). `bl auth` / `bl config` are owned by `bailian-cli`.

```bash
BAILIAN_CALLER_TYPE=agent BAILIAN_CALLER_NAME=codex BAILIAN_SKILL_NAME=bailian-sandbox BAILIAN_SKILL_VERSION=2.5.0 bl sandbox list
```

## Scope and setup

- Manage Sandbox instances and templates through Bailian's E2B-compatible REST control plane. No E2B SDK or E2B API key is required; authentication uses the Bailian API Key as an Authorization Bearer token.
- Resolve Base URL through the same CLI chain as Managed Agent: `--base-url` > `DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL` > login/profile `base_url`. Use an origin such as `https://workspace.cn-beijing.maas.aliyuncs.com`; the CLI strips URL paths/query/fragment and appends `/api/v1/agentstudio/sandbox` for lifecycle operations, or `/api/v1/agentstudio/files` for template file uploads. The saved API Key is reused. Profile capability fallback follows the shared protocol for both the key and Base URL.
