Sandboxes

Termbridge can use a sandbox instead of a local tmux session. This is useful when you want a terminal and preview that run in the cloud but keep the same Termbridge UI and sharing workflow.

When to use sandboxes

You want a terminal in a disposable cloud environment.
You need a preview that runs in a sandbox, not on your laptop.
You are running CI or integration tests against a remote environment.

If you just need to share your local terminal, use the default tmux backend.

Sandbox providers

Termbridge currently supports:

Daytona - Cloud sandboxes with repo cloning and preview ports. See the Daytona guide.

More providers are coming.

Quick start

Pick a provider and follow its setup guide.
Set the sandbox backend and repository configuration.
Run Termbridge as usual:

npx termbridge

For Daytona, follow the Daytona quick start.

Coding agents

Termbridge can install coding agents inside the sandbox and sync your local auth so they are ready immediately.

See the Coding agents guide for the full setup, automatic mode, and security details.

Preview mode

Sandbox providers can expose a preview port that Termbridge proxies into the UI. See your provider guide for the exact flags and environment variables.
