File System

Source: docs/file-system.mdx Canonical URL: https://sandboxagent.dev/docs/file-system Description: Read, write, and manage files inside the sandbox.

The filesystem API lets you list, read, write, move, and delete files inside the sandbox, plus upload tar archives in batch.

Path resolution

Absolute paths are used as-is.
Relative paths resolve from the server process working directory.
Requests that attempt to escape allowed roots are rejected by the server.

List entries

import { SandboxAgent } from "sandbox-agent";

const sdk = await SandboxAgent.connect({
  baseUrl: "http://127.0.0.1:2468",
});

const entries = await sdk.listFsEntries({
  path: "./workspace",
});

console.log(entries);

curl -X GET "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/entries?path=./workspace"

Read and write files

PUT /v1/fs/file writes raw bytes. GET /v1/fs/file returns raw bytes.

import { SandboxAgent } from "sandbox-agent";

const sdk = await SandboxAgent.connect({
  baseUrl: "http://127.0.0.1:2468",
});

await sdk.writeFsFile({ path: "./notes.txt" }, "hello");

const bytes = await sdk.readFsFile({ path: "./notes.txt" });
const text = new TextDecoder().decode(bytes);

console.log(text);

curl -X PUT "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/file?path=./notes.txt" \
  --data-binary "hello"

curl -X GET "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/file?path=./notes.txt" \
  --output ./notes.txt

Create directories

import { SandboxAgent } from "sandbox-agent";

const sdk = await SandboxAgent.connect({
  baseUrl: "http://127.0.0.1:2468",
});

await sdk.mkdirFs({ path: "./data" });

curl -X POST "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/mkdir?path=./data"

Move, delete, and stat

import { SandboxAgent } from "sandbox-agent";

const sdk = await SandboxAgent.connect({
  baseUrl: "http://127.0.0.1:2468",
});

await sdk.moveFs({
  from: "./notes.txt",
  to: "./notes-old.txt",
  overwrite: true,
});

const stat = await sdk.statFs({ path: "./notes-old.txt" });
await sdk.deleteFsEntry({ path: "./notes-old.txt" });

console.log(stat);

curl -X POST "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/move" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"from":"./notes.txt","to":"./notes-old.txt","overwrite":true}'

curl -X GET "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/stat?path=./notes-old.txt"

curl -X DELETE "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/entry?path=./notes-old.txt"

Batch upload (tar)

Batch upload accepts application/x-tar and extracts into the destination directory.

import { SandboxAgent } from "sandbox-agent";
import fs from "node:fs";
import path from "node:path";
import tar from "tar";

const sdk = await SandboxAgent.connect({
  baseUrl: "http://127.0.0.1:2468",
});

const archivePath = path.join(process.cwd(), "skills.tar");
await tar.c({
  cwd: "./skills",
  file: archivePath,
}, ["."]);

const tarBuffer = await fs.promises.readFile(archivePath);
const result = await sdk.uploadFsBatch(tarBuffer, {
  path: "./skills",
});

console.log(result);

tar -cf skills.tar -C ./skills .

curl -X POST "http://127.0.0.1:2468/v1/fs/upload-batch?path=./skills" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/x-tar" \
  --data-binary @skills.tar
