# Vercel Sandbox CLI is now available

By Steven Van · 2025-11-07

Vercel's new Sandbox CLI, modelled on the Docker CLI, lets developers manage sandboxes and run commands directly from the terminal.

The [Vercel](<https://creatorstoolbox.com/tools/vercel>) Sandbox now has a dedicated command-line interface, built on the Docker CLI model, for managing isolated compute environments from the terminal.

- Create and run sandboxes for Node.js (node22) or Python (python3.13) workloads

- Execute commands inside existing sandboxes

- Copy files between local and remote environments

- List, stop, and remove sandboxes across projects and teams

- Run interactively with support for **--tty**, **--interactive**, and **--publish-port** for port forwarding

- Automate workflows via authentication tokens, environment variables, and timeouts

The CLI is installed globally (for example via **pnpm i -g sandbox**) and invoked as **sandbox** or **sbx**. Full command reference is available in the [Sandbox CLI docs](<https://vercel.com/docs/vercel-sandbox/cli-reference>).
