SandboxesTemplatesSelf-hosted
Storage, sandbox reliability, and template build fixes

​
New features

Per-role storage URLs for self-hosted deploymentsSelf-hosted deployments can now point templates and the build cache at different storage backends by setting TEMPLATE_STORAGE_URL and BUILD_CACHE_STORAGE_URL to full destination URLs, including s3://, gs://, and file:// schemes. Existing bucket and provider environment variables continue to work unchanged. (#3246)

​
Updates

Compressed uploads for AWS storageSelf-hosted deployments backed by AWS S3 can now upload template layers with the same compressed transfer path already used for other providers, cutting bandwidth on large template builds. (#3232)

​
Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue where a resumed sandbox could silently drop outbound traffic until its network cache re-resolved, causing stalled connections right after resume. (#3271)
  • Fixed a rare deadlock in sandbox command execution where cancelling a request while a command was starting could leave the call hung. (#3256)
  • Fixed template build failures caused by incorrect compressed uploads and cache handling for template layers. (#3231)
  • Fixed an issue where creating a template could fail with a stale lock error when a previous build had exited without cleaning up. (#3217)
  • Fixed template builds unpacking OCI image layers so that whiteouts and permissions match the behavior of the Docker daemon. (#3215)
  • Fixed an issue where a sandbox could remain accounted for after being removed, keeping it in the paused list until the next reconciliation. (#3199)
  • Reliability and security hardening across platform services, including dependency and base image CVE patches.

Desktop Sandbox for computer use
Desktop Sandbox for computer useWe are launching the E2B Desktop Sandbox. It’s a secure virtual desktop powered by E2B and made specifically for LLM-powered computer use. Each E2B Sandbox is isolated from the others and can be customized with any dependencies you want.We also added an example of computer use, using the E2B Desktop Sandbox.
​
SDK Reference
SDK ReferenceWe published the SDK reference for the E2B CLI & Core SDK, Code Interpreter SDK, and Desktop Sandbox SDK.To learn more, see the corresponding page in documentation.
​
Support for interactive charts
Support for interactive chartsWe added support for interactive charts. E2B now automatically detects charts when executing Python code with runCode() in JavaScript or run_code() in Python. The Python code must include Matplotlib charts.E2B sends the data of the chart back to the client, so you can then use your favorite chart library and create custom interactive charts.See corresponding docs page, or try interactive charts in the E2B Analyst app.

​
Agent Protocol

We have made first steps in developing the Agent Protocol.The protocol defines an interface for interacting with your agent. Adopting the protocol makes your agent automatically deployable to the e2b platform.Our goal is to make this protocol open and usable in the whole agent field. This is a collaborative project. We’re working on it with the most popular open-source agents, e.g., Auto-GPT, smol developer, or babyagi.Objectives:
  • Common endpoints to communicate with an agent - “start”, “step”, “stop” for starters. More will come, especially around debugging, tracing, and monitoring
  • Tech-stack agnostic - no specific framework required - you can adopt this without using the rest of SDK
  • Great DX - easy to adopt and implement - no need to rewrite your existing agent
  • Open - any agent builder can implement this and instantly become compatible with any platform supporting this protocol
If you like the protocol, please appreciate the GitHub repo with a star. Contributors are welcome.

Smol Developer Update

With more than 1500 smol developer pull requests, we hit OpenAI API rate limits. We consequently added an option to pass your own OpenAI key in case e2b is hitting OpenAI’s rate limits.Additionally, you can now select which OpenAI model you want to use with smol developer when using your own OpenAI key.
